The Glint Charger turns a clear sightline into a kill zone. Hold the trigger for up to 1.0 second to charge; release to fire a piercing line of ink that reaches 27 meters at full charge. Damage scales with charge from 40 to 160, so a full shot splats any opponent in its path.

Every shot also paints a line of ink under it, about one patch every 1.2 meters, which makes the Charger a decent turf tool despite its slow fire rate. Charge shots while strafing across your own ink, and snap the release onto a target rather than tracking them.

The Charger is the most punishing weapon in INKWAVE to use. Misses leave you nearly defenseless, and close-range fights are lost before they start. Hold a lane from high ground, watch the map, and let teammates handle the scramble.
