Riff

Jazz Musician appealing to the patron to find their audience.


TEMPO - IMPROVISTATION - LOUD

There is no escaping Riff’s tune in the cursed apple,

Gameplay Style

Riff design revolves around non-stop music, and that means non-stop shooting, managing engages appropriately and not being afraid to give away your position. Due to Riff’s non stop shooting, gameplay for Riff is centred around managing your attack speed to preserve ammo, and then unleashing rapid fire attack speed at critical moments.

Riff's abilities lend themself to supporting nearby allies while preparing to help follow up on any engages, however due to how noisy they are, they may not be able to sneak around!

Unique trait

Riff’s weapon never stops shooting, and does not have the shooting movement speed penalty. Pressing Fire shoots an additional projectile between each auto fire.

Weapon: Penchant for Treble
Baseline capacity of 32. Reload speed of 2.5 seconds, where Riff takes a breath.
1.4 Bullets per second. Slow and fairly weak, to compensate for being able to fire additional shots between auto-shots.
