Cyber Lantern
Not to be confused with the similarly named weapon, the Cyber Cat Lantern.
The Cyber Lantern is a Special weapon introduced in the 21.5.0 update.
Description
It is a lantern with a cyber theme. It deals high damage, has a decent mobility but has a low fire rate and a one shot capacity.
Appearance
It appears to resemble a Japanese lantern with cyber like modifications. It contains four yellow lights on all sides that turn red when fired. The player holds it by grabbing the handle located on top of the lantern.
Performance
When the fire button is pressed, the user will fire a hitscan energy projectile that will explode upon contact, dealing splash damage. In addition, any enemies caught in the explosion will be slowed down.
Strategy
Tips
- Use in close ranges because of its area damage.
- This weapon has a low ammo capacity and a fixed delay, so exercise caution when heading into fights.
- Aim for groups of enemies to weaken then.
- Take advantage of the
attribute to slow down fast moving players - Pair this with the Leader's Drum to do blistering damage.
- Once an enemy is hit, finish them off with a high damaging weapon.
Counters
- Pick off the user at long range.
- Area damage weapons and shotguns can quickly finish users off.
- Strafe around the user while firing to avoid getting hit.
- Try to wait until the user has fired its shot, then attack while they are vulnerable.
- Flank around the user with a shotgun or melee weapon and attack them from behind.
- If all else fails, use this weapon yourself to counter.
