Spud Shotgun has falloff at long range. Close-range full hits are the most ammo-efficient Farmbot kill.

Spin-Up Is Part of the Fight Timer

Spudling does not instantly dump damage. Start the spin behind cover, then expose once the stream is live. Interrupting spin-up in the open against Tapebots is how players die holding an empty click.

Eighty Chunks Is a Logistics Decision

Farmbot math (~80 × 20) makes Spudling the expensive option. Prefer Shotgun or Spudgun for single heavies; keep Spudling for raid nights or packed melee when you already stocked a potato logistics chain.

Supply Discipline

  • Stage ammo chests near the defense lane, not only in the far warehouse.
  • Call a magazine change before the gun clicks empty mid-pack.
  • Do not strip the seed potato chest for one Spudling adventure.
