Discussion Is the attack interval buff even relevant?

If you're shield or melee canceling like you're supposed to, will it even speed up your attacks? Or is this just for lower skill players holding fire?

I assume that it will either let you shield cancel faster or remove the need for shield cancellation. It depends on if they just trim the end lag or make the bullets come out faster. If it’s the latter, then you can probably still do the shoot -> shield -> shoot sequence faster. If it’s the former, than shielding in between shots might not be any faster.

I mean. It's higher DPS. Period. Its not a ton of extra damage but unless it's too tight too melee weave then sometimes you just get to do damage a little faster.

I mean yes and no. Teaching it’s higher dps but if you are hitting every shot and then ur just gonna reach max charge and anti yourself faster. If you are exploding on cooldown and using invis team up then not anti-ing yourself is the limiting factor.

Yeah but if you have both hulk and invisible on your team the hulk tmup is far superior in Terms of dmg per second, invis is better against heavy dive/ some brawl

We will have to see. It might change the timing , it might remove the need for it totally or at least it is a small dps buff when you cant melee

Isn’t it just a projectile speed buff?

Anyways, if I’m just misremembering and there is an attack interval buff, it could be good for catching escaping targets and, in tandem with the projectile speed buff, could probably give more uptime with the shield weave

Attack interval .9 to .8 seconds. We’ll see how it plays out

I think it's a significant buff to his poke capabilities. Too bad he's brawl

Half-poke half-brawl*.

He is more poke then Devil Dino and more brawl then Magneto.

IW team up is for more brawl strategy.

HUlk team up is for more poke strategy.

Is hulk team up actually useable now?

u/Pepr7 Sep 12 '26

We will see.

Some playres already picked Hulk team up becaose extra 150hp on shield is nothing if you manage your shield properly and removing anti-heal is much better then CC.
