How to Handle Whaler Faction Ranged Attacks (Ink and Nets)
Dealing with Ink Blindness
Tentacliator and Glowing Tentacliator units from the Whaler faction spray ink that blinds you, severely limiting visibility and accuracy.
Steps:
1. Keep distance from Tentacliators to reduce ink spray range
2. If blinded, move to high ground or behind cover immediately
3.
4. Prioritize Tentacliators first in group fights to prevent cascading blindness
5. Use splash weapons or area attacks to hit them without relying on sight
Avoiding Net Traps
Pufficus units throw nets that immobilize you temporarily.
Steps:
1. Strafe side-to-side to dodge incoming nets
2.
3. Attack Pufficus from range before they close distance
4. Use elevated positions to avoid net throws entirely
Combine these tactics: eliminate Tentacliators for clear vision, then focus on Pufficus to prevent immobilization. This gives you control over the engagement.
