The Deadly Digital System, also commonly known as the DDS, is a Special weapon introduced in the 15.9.0 update. It can be obtained for a limited time as part of the Military Trader's Van event in the armory.
Description
It is a weapon that shoots a radius with musical notes. It deals decent damage, a slow attack speed, and decent-to-good mobility. When maxed out, it is capable of 2-hitting enemies.
Appearance
It appears to be an exoskeleton like weapon, but music themed. There is a remote device that the player holds. Attached to the strapped object (probably the Hi-Fi system) are the two speakers. Each of these speakers consists of yellow subwoofer and pink and cyan tweeters (treble speakers).
Performance
When firing, the player cranks a device they're holding, making an irritating noise. Right after a huge circle of yellow, orange, green and purple spreads out, dealing huge damage to opponents. Moreover, this weapon can induce random effects, which means that they can either bleed, burn, or poison the enemy, which means in any case, they temporarily lose extra health.
It uses the single-shot system so it has no reload animation. It has no delay mechanics either.
Strategy
Tips
- Use this in close range scenarios as this weapon is melee-like.
- To benefit from the area damage very well, use this against crowds of enemies.
- Since it has random effects, use it to weaken players.
- Feel free to use this against a group, since it has area damage.
- Use it as an upgrade of Mr. Deejay or how you would use Luxury Beats.
- If a player is on the roof and you are below in a building, jump to hit the player.
- Pairing this weapon with a weapon with
can make you a deadly player due to this weapon's 360 degree damage radius and the easy map traversing.
- This weapon can bypass the Energy Shield module combo, so take advantage of that.
- There is now limited ammo, so use it sparingly
- Spam this weapon in close ranged maps and you will get a lot of kills.
- Use weapons with the Slows The Target trait or use the Astral Wand to slow the opponent's movement to get close and hit them.
Counters
- Stay away from the user at all times, as this can be deadly, despite being a 2-3 shot.
- Simply attack the user from long ranges.
- The mobility isn’t that perfect, so use any weapon with 80 mobility or above to escape.
- Jump over the sound waves to avoid being hit (Double Jump needed)
- However, this does not work if the DDS user is also jumping. If this happens, Rocket Jump (PG3D) to avoid getting hit.
- Use weapons with the "Slows Down Target" trait and/or the Astral Wand to reduce the user's maneuverability.
- Berserk suicidal method for a last resort: Attack the user yourself with the Last Word module combination or a Melee weapon with similar damage, killing/injuring the enemy badly and yourself in the process.
- Use a weapon with the charm effect. The 50% damage reduction will help in taking out the enemy.
- Use an area damage melee such as the Spirit Staff or the Triple Bite.
- Use this weapon itself as a last ditch.
