Bulletstorm Skillshots: Solo, Co-Op and Map Related for Multiplayer

Wonder what Skillshots there are to use for Co-Op or just an easy reference for the Single Player?

Read on.

This Guide will also be updated on what Co-Op Skillshots can be used, to find out more about how the Co-Op works, check out my guide here:

What is a Skillshot and how can I do one?

A Skillshot is a type of action needed to gain points in Bulletstorm both Single and Multiplayer.

For Instance, a common skillshot known by all is a Headshot, to do this you need to shoot an enemy in the head with a bullet based weapon.

Skillshots do two things for you:

1 You see the satisfaction of pulling off a Skillshot (And the graphics to go with it)
2 You gain the points depending on the skillshot done that can be used to buy better gear and upgrades.

In this guide I will detail the Skillshot name, how hard the skill shot is and what you need to do to get it.

I will not put points as most I do not know, needless to say, the harder the skillshot = the more points.

Skillshots are listed by colour as follows:
Blue = Basic (Easy to do)
Yellow = Normal (Not so easy on the fly but not hard to pull off)
Red = Complex (Hard to do but the rewards are worth the extra effort)

However, the first time you do a Solo skillshot in the Single Player or in a Match you get an addional bonus points, so it pays well to kill enemies in different ways to maximise points.
