Clash of Critters: How to Master Ricochet Bounces in Zobo Shooter

To hit shielded enemies and maximize hit counts in the Zobo Shooter mode of Clash of Critters, aim projectiles off arena walls rather than shooting directly at targets. Moving your character to the outer edges of the screen opens up wider ricochet angles that bypass front-facing obstacles.

Positioning and Trajectory Mechanics

Standing near the perimeter gives you the broadest view of available deflection paths. Center positioning restricts your firing angles and limits your ability to curve shots around cover.

When lining up shots, rely on the on-screen trajectory line while accounting for key projectile rules:

• Surface Deflection: Angle your shots off side walls to reach enemies positioned in narrow corridors or tucked behind barricades.
• Multi-Hit Paths: Align ricochets to pass through multiple targets along a single rebound path to multiply your total damage per turn.
• Bounce Limits: Projectiles dissipate after striking a set number of surfaces. If the trajectory guide disappears before reaching the target's hitbox, adjust to a shorter or simpler ricochet angle.

Wave Strategy and Execution Tips

As stage difficulty increases, direct line-of-sight attacks become ineffective against shielded targets and heavy obstacle layouts.

1. Identify Choke Points: Target narrow gaps where a ricocheting projectile can strike multiple closely packed enemies in sequence.
2. Bypass Barriers: Ignore front-facing shields by bouncing shots off side or back walls to hit exposed flanks.
3. Prioritize Precision: Take extra time to confirm trajectory indicators before firing. A direct shot blocked by a wall wastes your turn, while a calculated bounce guarantees value.
