Long Range: Green Goo Grenades
You read that correctly. The long-range projectiles this little fella fires are sticky grenades of gooey, green ka-boom. No aiming down the sights. No need for “super accurate” gun skills. Just spot an enemy, point your Venom-X in their direction and let that sticky green sucker fly. They’re useful when you’re anticipating somebody coming around a corner as well. Like, if you’re playing Domination and you can see a group of enemies making for an objective? Make sure there’s an explode-y gob of green waiting for them when they try to take ‘B’.
Short Range: Slow Advancing Enemies
If you ever find yourself surrounded and need to take care of multiple enemies in your immediate area, consider spraying them green. The short-range fire of the Venom-X sprays an area with less damage but you can see enemies cowering and trying to clear their sights. That buys you time. If you run out of ammo on your primary weapon and don’t have time to reload, you could do a lot worse than switching to the ole’ Venom-X and spraying goo. It’ll buy you a few extra seconds to reload and fire or, if you hit them right, take them out entirely. Feels a bit better than switching to a pistol, no?
This Is How You Reload
Take it in. You see that green sack of goo? That’s your ammo. It’s satisfying as hell to take out enemies in unconventional ways and it doesn’t get less conventional than ending someone with goo. Just don’t get caught up in the animation of the reload. It’d be hard to blame you though if you did. We could watch this reload GIF for hours.
At this point, you’re excited to see the Venom-X in action. Or, you’re tired of getting exploded by other people wielding it with the confidence of a drunk teenager. So, stop reading, get out there and ruin some stranger’s confidence with the Venom-X. You’ll be glad you did.
