New "Impulsiveness" brawl

Just curious, What is the general consensus on the latest brawl “Impulsiveness” ?
I know what I think of it & the rewards provided.
Let-r-rip folks !

Spikes are way too op for this event they should make it with a presets cars with spikes better or remove the spikes form this event

I love it, because I grinded out some toadfishes a little while ago, and they are very fun in this mode.

Not sure why so many people are trying to use machine guns and shotguns in this mode. Either use crossbows, cannons, or some ACs. Grenades can also be good. I’m guessing some missiles might be good, but didn’t see any.
Has anyone tried the nailguns?

devs literally just pushed the “power” slider up on weapons and pushed it out. 0 effort involved in the making of the gamemode. although its still fun, but 3 medians do fuckall compared to a single spike

upon further consideration, autocannons are op and hilarious and i will enjoy bullying people with them

What weapons were you using?
And how did you end up facing an all-bot team? Maybe there was a group queued up and they all quit before the match finished loading?

It’s kind of normal to have some quick deaths in this mode, but at least you can respawn. And getting the prizes don’t always require a win anyway, as long as you are getting at least some assists.
My triple toadfish car one-shots most builds except for some heavy spiders. But it’s also an art car with no cloak, so I don’t feel like I’m cheating.

Last time this brawl came up, I used an avalanche on an omniwheel/deadman build, and it was also capable of one-shotting a lot of builds, or at least throw them through the air.

I was using 2 toadfish combined with 2 porcs but thinking about ditching the porcs for pyres plus yeti as everyone spawns all over the place. I think 3 toadfish is overkill and your better suited swapping one of the toadfish for anything really.

I don’t know if I would want to make a whole new build for a temporary mode, when the triple toadfish one is performing so well.
It might be overkill, but better to kill than be killed. And if I lose a crossbow (or two), I can still be a threat.
However, a cloak might be nice.

It’s just really fun to be driving a small sports car at high speed and insta-killing anyone I manage to hit as I speed by them.

Well a lot of times when i one shot people i get no points, you get points for destroying parts so when i was using porcs i try and toy with them for a bit so i could maximize the points i earn per kill. I’m not exactly sure if that’s the way it works or not but i think when they die from the impulse itself you basically get nothing and that’s the strategy i used during the last impulsive which was very effective back then.

Also something thing I noticed is that most people are running builds in the 8k to 10k ps range despite there being no powerscore cap and I don’t know why! can anyone explain that?

Poony4u maybe I’m wrong I dunno cause I only own 2 upgraded toadfish anyways so can’t test it out with 3 and I’m sure the toadfish prices at the moment is jacked up thru the roof so I ain’t gonna test out 3. I know that when they insta dies i get points but when they go flying across the map and then dies I get nothing more or less.

its just a fun event that any wep u use will launch ppl to the moon.
try to shoot them into the pit is always fun lol
i played it last time they had it. :rofl:

dude get the spikes from the pass, +30% bonus impact. i have 3 of them so 75% more impulse because of the spikes perk and add in 30% increased impulse per spike on top of that. LOL yep im gonna send someone to orbit! xD

i thought you said “crossBUNS” at first and i had the image of spikes shooting stale baguettes at people xD

dude the spikes from the pass have 30% increased impulse on them. i bought 3 because i wanted to use them in events but can you imagine how hard theyll hit in that mode? lol youll be sailing into orbit in no time!

yeah so now the toadfish and the spike will feel like hitting someone with 20 trucks as opposed to one lol. they have spikes in the battle pass that you can trade in something for it and it has 30% increased impulse. have fun with that! xD

That’s interesting, I hadn’t noticed that.
But also doesn’t seem like points are that important in this mode either. I care more about the challenge rewards, so I’m just trying to get as many kills as I can.
I feel like I’m scoring pretty high most of the time though, even though at least half my kills are one-shot kills.

Usually the enemy just gets vaporized before they even have a chance to get airborne. So maybe the increased impulse also increases damage, and you get the full points if you destroy the car before it hits the speed barrier?

That is pretty tempting. I sold my old spikes, because they nerfed the impulse too much. Maybe I should get these fused ones.

I uploaded a short clip of a round I had just then to yt. You can easily vaporize loads of builds with only 2 toadfish so that’s what i was kinda talking about that in my humble opinion that 3/4 toadfish is kinda overkill. Yes this build is very slow but can take the hits considering which mode we are playing lol.

yea thats the reason this event exists, because spikes with extra knockback are available for purchase. so dont forget to give gaijin all your money for another dollar trap

lol heres a cool build i just cooked up with 2 toadfish and the nest, the hippogriff allows you to lock with the nest behind cover. Think I’m gonna stick with this one for the rest of the event instead, very fun build.


Edit: swapped the nest for md-3 owl even better
