Have you ever taken off the octopus sprint charm?
I've never taken it off the moment I've gotten it. It lasts for like half a second but it really adds up over the course of dive and can help you escape a hit from charging sharks. It also works when you're overloaded on weight.

10/10, S-tier charm.

I did that with dolphin necklace myself. Once it was on, it never came off (30% faster sprint).

My secondary is the eco gemstone bracelet, the one that gives you 1 more ore when you mine. I can't take if off until I get all the ore I need and enough money.

I never really used the octopus charm much.

I've used the gem charm too, but the Octopus one has a super short cooldown and is super helpful for moving a bit faster when you are overweight.

I don't like the normal sprint cause it really eats of O2 fast, so I rarely use the dolphin one.
Jeff Jul 5, 2023 @ 5:27pm 
The faster O2 isn't really much of a problem the way I play. I do a lot of backtracking, and I end up having more oxygen than I need by saving O2 spawns until I need them so the sprint really helps speed up each dive. I just sprint a lot more than many players I imagine.

Plus it's nice for most shark fights or bossfights even though I can't dodge. I just eat a few hits here and there but I can dodge quite a few attacks with sprint.

I took octo charm off because you have to KEEP CLICKING to use it. If it was more just "hold the button" and you'd sprint as guage refilled, I'd probably keep it on. Short of getting a turbo controller, I refuse to have to continuously press a button in quick succession while just moving around. Wasn't really worth it to me.

Octo charm is absolutely vital for dodging some of the harder enemies, imo.

Dolphin/Octo is all you need. You win the game. Anything else is just fluff. Maybe use the ore one if you down on ore or something I guess, but most the other stuff is useless compared to movement speed/dash.

Does anyone know if the dolphin charm applies to the dash of the octopus charm?

I would use it more if it didn't require constantly pressing the control stick. I think it's the worst button they could have chosen.

If they'd change the input, or would allow controller button remapping it would always be on together with the Dolphin charm.

It should just activate with the regular sprint button aka shift and once the initial dash runs out you just keep diving faster as usual (calling it sprinting underwater feels so wrong lol)

Used it for 2 dives and switched it out. Better charms in my opinion.

Equipped it once briefly, then immediately replaced it with others. Honestly not worth it, really.

I'm a big fan, Octo/dolphin was my go to pairing through the entire mid game. It's best feature is it's a fixed speed dash regardless of weight, so if you're fully maxed on carry weight you can still get about at pace.

I've stopped using it in the end game, but that's only because i full dash everywhere, i run dolphin/gem now.

Dolphin is mandatory to the point it should be incorporated in to the regular dash speed and the charm be an air use reduction or something. Late game enemies and bosses are worlds different to fight without the increased dash speed.

If the dash button is LB instead of pressing the stick, I would have used that. Instead, I use the other octo charm which is 15 percent more gun power. Helps kill both sharks and bosses.

Dolphin never comes off. Dave really needs the speed.
