If your PC can't run Ultrakill, that's a bit ridiculous. My PC is +15 years old and can run the demo although I only played the demo fully, only once before uninstalling it since it's well, the demo. edit: I tried the actual game. Not much either but yes there's a bit of lag. My bad for not knowing but it doesn't lag a lot though yes lag is present
@ that’s the DEMOnthe demo doesn’t have conductivity idiot it runs smoothly but when conductivity style comes up u drop fps i have a a gaming laptop and even it drops
The reason why ULTRAKILL has so many weapons (variants included), is to appeal to many people's needs. You want a fully automatic rifle? Have the overheat nail gun. You want to bleed your enemies dry? Use the screwdriver. You want to sacrifice speed for more damage and still get the hit scans from a coin? Use the Slab Marksman. The power of creativity is all up to the player, and that's just one of the great aspects of ULTRAKILL. Also Hakita lied. We still haven't gotten the gold arm. I WANT IT NOW
@@aaronthepianoman8297 Yeah it's just a lot less consistent for the average player in the heat of combat, theoretically you could totally master it and then the only downside is the weapon becomes less for clearing out mobs and more for single target dps, which can also be a benefit.
I don't want to be rude but tbh lefthanded weapon slots were a mistake to add though, they're very rarely used and when they are you feel like your eyes and brain hemispheres are swapping sides
Jumpstart with the sawblades is also insane, but I never really experimented much with just the nailguns because I like not needing to think. Im going to try to do this more because these clips are sick.
@@migz1742 well, it doesn't have splitshots, which affects in being able to kill more enemies at once, and you can just use slab piercer or slab sharpshooter to get the extra damage, it's not like you're going to waste efficiency over ¨more damage?¨
@@JaviXDWasa not every weapon needs to be multi target mate. single target damage exists, absolutely diabolical. and how so do the slab piercer or sharpshooter fulfill the role of slab marksman? if you actually wanna hit the early splitshot timings for the coin by swapping to the other slabs, it's literally a frame perfect input. not hitting the splitshot timing in general for coins is inefficient. let's take something like high wave cybergrind where all the enemies are tanky and radiant. would you want the gun that actually does something for damage or the one that is used to pick away at mere fodder when you are very much not just taking out fodder at this point of cg. just like sawblades, the default marksman does fall off heavily later waves. why do all of you fail to see that the weaponry in this game has different use cases and purposes? anyways yes, i will indeed "waste efficiency" for more damage.
Jumpstart is probably the best weapon in the game, even in normal levels you can just attach your jumper cables to some random stray's balls and chunk a massive group. But as someone who's not too good at the game, I've always defaulted to saws + red nailgun to get a bit of the best of both worlds, this makes me wanna try out the nailgun more though. That and the alt shotgun, which I'm colossally ass with and destroys my muscle memory lol
red nail carried me through brutals hardest levels including sanct, it's so overpowered it's wild, combo it with a saw trap (+ nail spread) for reduced con time and it wipes arenas faster than literally everything else and gropes high health enemies
man you were right, I'll def be switching to nailgun. tho i don't see why using attractor nailgun is a good idea... i can't wait to see you upload more! :)
Main thing i like about conductivity is that its super fast once you get a hang of it in cybergrind, like you can prefire magnets and nails before the weapon cooldown refresh, shoot a few nails into a heavy enemy like a cerberus or smt, fire electric railcannon into it and watch as like half the enemies get instantly evaporated
I see (both visually and metaphorically) where ur coming from, i still prefer the saws for saw traps though for levels like p-1 and p-2, but i do have the jumpstart nailgun equipped, not the jumpstart saw
I like using nailgun jump-start as spamming nails from overheat nail gun and jump-start makes a lot of conductivity and damage. And with magnets and electric railcannon makes more conduction and more damage which is very fun
I switched from the sawblade launcher to nailgun recently. I didn't understand conductor at all but, thanks to your research, I now have a better understanding; Thank you!
I always loved the nailgun, but I thought that the red variant was kind of eh (I only played with it for around 20 minutes lol) until I saw this eye opening video. I MUST try this variant again NOW
I knew it was great for crowd control but I didn’t know it was this good. I’ve been using the red nailgun for levels and red sawblade for bosses this whole time
The best part the jumpstart is that it you can skip the time by killing the enemy, so just adding a single rail coin then spamming coins can proc conductivity once, kill the enemy then proc it again
reason to use jumpstart nailgun- instant clear to the cerebi in the Weezer room IF you do the correct setup (3 magnets in middle of room, 10 saws orbiting the magnets, overheat nailgun alt fire one of the cerebi, begin the zap process)
Nobody ever mentions how much more versatile the nailgun is. Like being able to attack flying enemies, and being capable of being used more offensively rather than defensively like the sawblades.
what i'd like to do with the nailgun and its variants is to have every nailgun be standard except for the attactor. it speeds up the process for jumpstart and it automatically fills up the entirety of the overheat nailgun's charge! with this setup, you can quickly get into a horde, put in the standard nailgun jumpstart cable, (plus the magnets that gets put down) overheat the enemy i have attached it to, and go back to the attractor for basically an instant charge plus the overheat nails! almost every horde i have done this to in the cybergrind have been turned to dust or halved in the later waves. The sawblade launcher (attractor version specifially, turning the other 2 into sawblades makes the conductor tricky to pull off) can very much help out the 2 standard nailguns and make one of the best horde clearing tools in the game
When I had the alt nailguns out, I never actually used them that much because I kept forgetting about them altogether. Nailguns carried me to wave 70 before Brutal was out.
i'm a newbie into ultrakill, and i played before the new variants came out, i never considered the nailgun bad in any way and actually didn't like much the sawblade the day i tried out the jumpstart, i LOVED it, it did massive damage, i could combo it with the overheat, and not even the jackhammer gives me so much satisfaction for doing it right i don't find it skillful, from a 'novice' or casual perspective, but i ADORE the nailgun
Yeah, definitely the most underrated weapon in the game especially with the stuff you can do with the jumpstart, such as clearing an entire wave’s worth of cg enemies
i use the normal overheat but the rest are the alternates, this makes conductivity slightly worse, but that doesnt really matter. so yeah, i use a mix of the two
i use the saw attractor with the nail overheat and jumpstart. the magnets help with conduct and saws activate nail overheat anyway so why not have both
i personally think most people (including me) dont use the nailgun because of how awkward it can be to implement it combos. you need to constantly fire the nailgun to take down a cerb (for a few seconds), meanwhile you can instakill a cerb with just one srs cannonball in much less time. one reason i think most people use sawblade is because it is an incredibly viable weapon because of its insane ease of use, high dps, and insane passive damage/downright maniacal crowd control. i almost totally agree with all of the points in the video, by the way!
I mean I use both, I have sawblade for magnet and heatsink but I have nailgun on jumpstart just for that and I break the saw trap on purpose bc the sawblades also carry conductivity so a combo of both sawblades, heatsawblade and nails and they are all electrified does some really decent damage in a large area, however I might just switch heatsink for nails just to maximise projectiles in the area.
I’ve been running the saw blades and electric nailgun for a while this video might get me to try out all nailguns together ngl emphasis on might I’m a bit of a sawblade simp. (Btw maybe make your voice a little bit louder in editing its a bit quiet)
i am fully on board with saying the conductor tech is just stupidly strong, but saying the sawblades don't require skill to pull off correctly is just... like, the conductor isn't harder, you right click an enemy instead of the ground and then hold click on them... you see how simplifying this down to its bare-bones kinda just makes it sound derogatory? as an avid conductor user myself, i won't tell you which one to use, since blue and green sawblades work wonderfully with red nails (sawblades speed up the trigger time for the cable) and blue and green nails make maxing out the conductor damage really easy. as a level runner however i will say that sawblades are just better for setups. the red nail is still crazy good since it's just as much, if not more of a room clear as a nuke with only like half a second more activation time if you do it correctly. as a last note: conductor existed before the arsenal update, it however only dealt damage to a target hit by the electric railcannon (or other electric damage, such as ferryman or 5-2 and 5-4 lightning), increasing dependent on how many nails are in the target. as of the arsenal update conductor got a major rework and buff with its wave-clear capabilities. all in all: great video, although i did have some nerd "uhm akchually" moments here and there. no harm done, none intended (edit: just to say this, i'm only complaining about the phrasing that the sawblade launcher doesn't require and reward skillful play. since that is just a bad argument in a game basically centered around perfectly optimizing your play down to a machine level. every single weapon in this game rewards skillful play and has incredibly strong synergies if used correctly.)
Find about potential of conductivity with myself like few weeks before. Thanks to it I P-ranked 7-3 marked for death and P-2 on Brutal. BUT, realization that sawgun is cheesy and improves your skill in no way came to me much before... and I was playing with nailguns without using it)
"nailgun is good because conductor is good" attractor saw + overheat saw + jumpstart nailgun benefits of sawblade not being a terrible weapon benefits of having nails for conductivity "sawblade launcher is skilless and isn't fun" literally the only reason the nailgun has any sort of skill gap is the red one literally what else do you do with blue and green nails, nailbomb? it doesn't make sense to say "oh nailgun is actually really good guys" because of one varient when 2/3 varients are terrible
the other 2 nailguns allow the jumpstart to do a crap ton of damage from nails especially the green one because it shoots out 56 nails in a second they are not terrible
@@prep5181the overheat is actually the one that allows jumpstart to do the crap ton of damage, the nail cap of jumpstart is 60 nails and overheat is capable of doing in singlehandedly. And if you want to spray nail to random small enemies you should use jumpstart instead of attractor because there is no 100 nails cap. And in term of damage speed, you know that each saw hit reduce jumpstart wait time for 1 second right? So if you know you already set the nail you can switch to saw for faster conducting I suggest you to at least equip attractor saw because being able to do damage while you switch to other weapon is like free passive damage and doing heat-swap with saw + overheat nail is easier that nail + overheat nail
"benefits of sawblade not being a terrible weapon" are nailguns terrible weapons? i'd like to hear about this. "benefits of having nails for conductivity" yeah, no shit any loadout with a nailgun does. however the other 2 nails can assist as they're a faster way of spreading nails/outputting nails in general. "what else do you do with the blue and green nails, nailbomb?" ...brother. you shoot the weapons. at the enemy. don't overcomplicate it.
@@prep5181 losing out on two of the best weapons to make another really good weapon better is a horrible tradeoff especially when the red nailgun shoots fast when it's attached to an enemy
to me nailgun is easier than sawblades. why place sawtraps when you can just kill every grounded enemy near you within seconds and with more style points?
generally it's a matter of preference. i recommend experimenting with your loadout, and seeing what you like most. don't listen to the so called "meta", every weapon is good just use what you enjoy the most
I do use all Nailguns but I do find the damage a little underwhelming on enemies that aren't weak to nails compared to other weapons, you can easily do more than 5 damage faster with Shotgun swapping, a well placed Sharpshooter shot, multiple fully charged Alt Shotguns or even a Shotgun Rocket combo and the Alt Piercer Charged Shot does 7.5 damage in an instant, not saying the Nailgun is bad though. While I'm not here to argue with anyone, the stubborn dunce saying "Nailgun bad, Conductivity OP" and failing to get his point across is saying the Nailgun heavily relies on the damage from Conductivity which is false but you do spend half the video talking about it but it is a core mechanic of the Nailgun and it is split up into "What does it do" and "This brought the Nailgun's damage on par with other weapons" so that really isn't a problem and the one complaining has a shallow mind. You talking about the combination of coins and rockets making it chain to do ridiculous amounts of damage and it skyrocketing the style meter reminds me of when explosions skyrocketed the style meter. The damage of that tactic is extreme but it takes a lot of skill to do that everyone can't do. Have been using the Alt Jumpstart Nailgun only because I don't like having my reliable Attractor and Overheat nails being replaced by saws that aren't good in tight spaces. This video is good and gave me a mental exercise with that nonsensical comment down below. from my point of view as of now, no weapon is truly bad in this game from a wider perspective, it's all up to preference.
no, you're not talking about nailgun being good. you're talking about conductor. those are 2 separate things!!!! also, just me personally i don't really like conduction. i feel as if it's just too simple to set up and it gives wayyyy too much reward. i find fun in actually putting effort into things. however, i do like using the nails by themselves without the silly shocks since they're actually quite fun to me, not sure about others. i also happen to primarily play cybergrind, and saws kind of just get eaten up by the other enemies in higher waves + as you mentioned in the video, they require little effort and are quite frankly, boring as shit. not saying saws are bad, but they just kind of fall off in higher wave territory but are still very much good in waves maybe like 45 below?
I am talking about the nailgun. Nails are a central part about conductivity, so without the nailgun, conductivity damage would be extremely weak. I explain how conductivity is extremely strong because the nailgun allows the damage from conductivity to shred enemies. Anything related to conductivity is also related to the nailgun. Also what do you mean it's too simple to set up conductivity? It's one of the harder and more interesting techs to pull off, especially since you can use more conductables like chainsaws, frozen rockets, or coins to make it stronger.
@@prep5181 Nails aren’t essential for big damage conductions. Adding coins, magnets, and rockets are good enough to setup a decent conduction and if the setup is good enough you can get a bunch of conductor kills without nails, and saws also speed up the jumpstart cable so they are also pretty decent for conductor shenanigans. I do agree that good conductor setups can be pretty difficult but really satisfying.
@@prep5181 your title is INCREDIBLY misleading. i was expecting you to be talking about the nailguns themselves. instead, all i got was you praising conductor. yes, nails are useful for conductor setups. but you aren't talking about the weapons themselves, the nailGUN. you're talking about CONDUCTOR wiping out the whole cybergrind arena. and genuinely how do you find conductor difficult and interesting? it's merely placing magnets down, jumpstarting/erailing an enemy, and tossing coins. it's not intuitive whatsoever. its literally one of the most simple things to do in the game. magnets and coins are literally all you need as well. nothing else! the rest is excessive since those 2 conductor nodes by themselves are well enough to wipe out hordes of enemies (most of the wave) with close to zero effort.
@@prep5181 oh yeah, also upon rewatching the video you stated that the attractor and overheat variants simple were not worth using because "shotgun swapping does just as much". did you know shotgun swapping has a very short range? crazy, i know. nailguns are able to deal damage from much farther ranges via magnet usage and guess what, it deals just as much dps!!! shotgun swapping i don't find to be effective whatsoever in cybergrind since having to stay up in the enemy's face just to do good dps will probably get you killed more often than just jamming some magnets into the enemies and going brbrbrtbrbtrbrbtrbtbr with the nailguns. "the nailgun is good, actually" then you proceed to shit on the other 2 variants and praise jumpstart/conduction in general.
conductivity actually has a hidden downside that balances it where if you have a bad pc your fps is reduces to 0.5
noticed that it happens for 1-2 seconds then goes back sometimes i even get full frame freeze and audio loops

"benefits of sawblade not being a terrible weapon" are nailguns terrible weapons? i'd like to hear about this.
"benefits of having nails for conductivity" yeah, no shit any loadout with a nailgun does. however the other 2 nails can assist as they're a faster way of spreading nails/outputting nails in general.
"what else do you do with the blue and green nails, nailbomb?" ...brother. you shoot the weapons. at the enemy. don't overcomplicate it.
@@migz1742 "brother you shoot the weapons at the enemy" i thought they were supposed to be skill based weapons
@@prep5181 losing out on two of the best weapons to make another really good weapon better is a horrible tradeoff especially when the red nailgun shoots fast when it's attached to an enemy
did people ever think the nailgun was ACTUALLY bad?
Yes bro linguini claimed it was the worst weapon when he dont know how conductivity works
at this point i guess that means there is no 'worst weapon'
The community the second when I finally start using the red fist instead-
Edit: why does the music sound like that, why did you cut it
The nailgun is good (in groups)
1:14 how do you make hp bars in sandbox?
switch to the green spawner arm, click the enemy, then click the health bar option
The cuts are a bit jarring so maybe use more fade in for the sound but an otherwise good video
counter point, i suck
i dont really use the saw blade launcher much either lmao
to me nailgun is easier than sawblades. why place sawtraps when you can just kill every grounded enemy near you within seconds and with more style points?
Me who use both alt and base
the type of video an mf makes when they run out of content:
Wait......there are people who thought the nailgun was bad....???
is there a good mix between alternate and regular nailguns? i use regular jumpstart but then sawblade attractor and overheat
generally it's a matter of preference. i recommend experimenting with your loadout, and seeing what you like most. don't listen to the so called "meta", every weapon is good just use what you enjoy the most
overheat - nailgun
rest sawblade.
Jumpstart requires not skill but rtx 4090 and i9 13900k to use on cybergrind
Cybergrind tip pls
I do use all Nailguns but I do find the damage a little underwhelming on enemies that aren't weak to nails compared to other weapons, you can easily do more than 5 damage faster with Shotgun swapping, a well placed Sharpshooter shot, multiple fully charged Alt Shotguns or even a Shotgun Rocket combo and the Alt Piercer Charged Shot does 7.5 damage in an instant, not saying the Nailgun is bad though. While I'm not here to argue with anyone, the stubborn dunce saying "Nailgun bad, Conductivity OP" and failing to get his point across is saying the Nailgun heavily relies on the damage from Conductivity which is false but you do spend half the video talking about it but it is a core mechanic of the Nailgun and it is split up into "What does it do" and "This brought the Nailgun's damage on par with other weapons" so that really isn't a problem and the one complaining has a shallow mind. You talking about the combination of coins and rockets making it chain to do ridiculous amounts of damage and it skyrocketing the style meter reminds me of when explosions skyrocketed the style meter. The damage of that tactic is extreme but it takes a lot of skill to do that everyone can't do. Have been using the Alt Jumpstart Nailgun only because I don't like having my reliable Attractor and Overheat nails being replaced by saws that aren't good in tight spaces. This video is good and gave me a mental exercise with that nonsensical comment down below. from my point of view as of now, no weapon is truly bad in this game from a wider perspective, it's all up to preference.
what comment do you happen to be talking about?
hey........ i recognise this type of title...............
is this from Uncle Dane?
You noticed ;)
there are no bad weapons. besides piercer i dont have a use for that one
Can you make a video talking about the jackhammer?
Yes i definitely will once i get better with using triple hammers
video on the jackhammer is out now if you want to see it
There is only 1 gun id say is objectively bad and that’s the fire starter
That’s it
personally i dont really like the sawblades, yeah sure its good damage but as a normal weapon? meh, only good at making traps
idk slab marksman is pretty good tho
Ok, but, still not as strong as the whiplash, But that ewapons plain overpowered, it's damage really needs to be nerfed.
I play on a laptop
people think it does???? whaat???? thats stupid
Piercer only better
Nah the nailgun is bad(in the past)
no, you're not talking about nailgun being good. you're talking about conductor. those are 2 separate things!!!! also, just me personally i don't really like conduction. i feel as if it's just too simple to set up and it gives wayyyy too much reward. i find fun in actually putting effort into things. however, i do like using the nails by themselves without the silly shocks since they're actually quite fun to me, not sure about others. i also happen to primarily play cybergrind, and saws kind of just get eaten up by the other enemies in higher waves + as you mentioned in the video, they require little effort and are quite frankly, boring as shit. not saying saws are bad, but they just kind of fall off in higher wave territory but are still very much good in waves maybe like 45 below?
I am talking about the nailgun. Nails are a central part about conductivity, so without the nailgun, conductivity damage would be extremely weak. I explain how conductivity is extremely strong because the nailgun allows the damage from conductivity to shred enemies. Anything related to conductivity is also related to the nailgun. Also what do you mean it's too simple to set up conductivity? It's one of the harder and more interesting techs to pull off, especially since you can use more conductables like chainsaws, frozen rockets, or coins to make it stronger.
@@prep5181 Nails aren’t essential for big damage conductions. Adding coins, magnets, and rockets are good enough to setup a decent conduction and if the setup is good enough you can get a bunch of conductor kills without nails, and saws also speed up the jumpstart cable so they are also pretty decent for conductor shenanigans. I do agree that good conductor setups can be pretty difficult but really satisfying.
@@prep5181 your title is INCREDIBLY misleading. i was expecting you to be talking about the nailguns themselves. instead, all i got was you praising conductor. yes, nails are useful for conductor setups. but you aren't talking about the weapons themselves, the nailGUN. you're talking about CONDUCTOR wiping out the whole cybergrind arena. and genuinely how do you find conductor difficult and interesting? it's merely placing magnets down, jumpstarting/erailing an enemy, and tossing coins. it's not intuitive whatsoever. its literally one of the most simple things to do in the game. magnets and coins are literally all you need as well. nothing else! the rest is excessive since those 2 conductor nodes by themselves are well enough to wipe out hordes of enemies (most of the wave) with close to zero effort.
@@prep5181 oh yeah, also upon rewatching the video you stated that the attractor and overheat variants simple were not worth using because "shotgun swapping does just as much". did you know shotgun swapping has a very short range? crazy, i know. nailguns are able to deal damage from much farther ranges via magnet usage and guess what, it deals just as much dps!!! shotgun swapping i don't find to be effective whatsoever in cybergrind since having to stay up in the enemy's face just to do good dps will probably get you killed more often than just jamming some magnets into the enemies and going brbrbrtbrbtrbrbtrbtbr with the nailguns. "the nailgun is good, actually" then you proceed to shit on the other 2 variants and praise jumpstart/conduction in general.
@@migz1742 lmao its you
