If you can't scout that well, Acrobat is your next option If you are lazy to read, I made a short summary at the end THE BASICS Cost-25000exp The Acrobat kit is the feather in the top left corner of your kit choices screen which you can access with /kit or /k . You get a bow with 6 arrows , a wooden sword, pickaxe and axe, leather armor , but most importantly the ability to Double Jump (press space twice) and immunity to fall damage. There's a short 10 second cooldown between uses and a short snort sound will notify you when the timer's up and you may use the ability again . How to use the Double Jump Get to high places Be unpredictable in pvp Run Away! (not advised against scout) Jump to swimming opponents Climb mountains Faster Properly use a skybridge Get accused for fly hacks Jump back from the void Get out of holes Perform hit and run attacks Should you buy this kit? I'll recommend buying scout first before anything but if you already have scout and suck at it, Sure go ahead! Tips Remember that you have a bow,use it to snipe running targets. Also try shooting people while jumping. Many kits can't go to high places, use it to your advantage You can run away from scouts if there's enough trees or hills Scouts have a slowness effect from wearing diamond armour, you don't Map specific tips Canyon v1/v2 Jump down the canyon to escape from most people.You can jump to the top of the walls, the roof of the pyramid at base and the diamonds in mid are easier to get, jump to the roof of the bridges leading to mid and perform sneak attacks. The canyon is easier to climb Canyon v1: you can jump from mid to a small spur and ignore the bridge Coastal v1/v3/v4 You can jump to the bridges at base. Jump to the trees and sneak to avoid enemies . The water is easier to cross Coastal v4: jump to the pillar containing the iron blocks EssixDamn You can jump from a hill to their base's roof and fall to a balcony and enter their nexus chamber . The dam is easier to climb Eldor Note there's a ton of mountains.Jump to the bridge from the castle walls. Jump across the small islands leading to mid and climb the volcano. Eyron Plains v1-v2 Jump to the roofs of the mines to escape Jump to the boss island and cross water easier. Eyron Plains v2: You actually can jump from the island all the way to the little harbour but it's really difficult Kingdom Kingdom v1 You can jump from your island to mid You can jump on top of the house at base and then jump to the nexus Kingdom v2 You actually can jump from the ground to the roof but it's really difficult. Brawl Valley and Quarry You take no fall damage remember? Double jump on ladders to climb them faster. Tribal You can jump over the trenches. Jump from the ground to the stairs to the nexus. Underworld Acrobat is harder to use here. Just use for PvP and jumping midair to safety from the lava floor. You have no problem with the spawn on the top of the tower Frozen Jump to the top of the walls at mid. I don't have anything else Andorra Jump to the bridge then jump to the nexus room. Mid is very easy to move around There's many trees for hiding. tldr: you get a bow, double jump and immunity to fall damage. Don't bowspam Thanks for reading my first post that I put work into.
Nice tutorial. I always use acrobat [ cuz I suck ] I mainly use it to ambush unsuspecting iron armored players or void - jump - ditch new players (pretend to jump into void, but then use the double jump ability to hop out and fight back). Its a simple to use kit, you need to have < 300 ms ping [Recommended < 200 ms] to use the double jump ability properly. You can double jump even if you're in water too, so that makes any player without depth striders an easy prey. The best thing about this kit is the immunity to fall damage. If you're getting hit hard, just jump down (assuming you're fighting at a higher ground). The bow and the 6 arrows you get along, really help to counter archers & knocking people off from towers, bridges etc. With this kit, you have the high ground! [Feel free to include my tips in your tutorial :3]
Acrobat was my first kit, I think only 2 or 3 people in the entire Anni server of 250~ people had acro when I had it. I have been taught about the ways of the acrobat by IlPlatinum and Fone_Bone if anyone remembers them. And I have taught several other people to properly utilize Acro such as zingaringo, Oromis37 and many others to name a few Anni back in 2015 had a acro lag where if you double jump beyond a certain point, you get rubberbanded to where you were It was the reason no one chose acro in the early days. The few brave people who chose it had to be careful not to double jump far enough to get banded back The reason Acro is a more versatile kit IMO than scout is the positive effect of lag. Scout is absolutely hard to use when your ping is 180+ and your grapple doesn't work as fast as it should be. But Acro is slight more better in lag coz of the extra distance you get when you lag The old 4 maps of Coastal , Canyon, Andorra and Sarum, along with Kingdom had the best uses for Acrobat which made fighting the areas between bases easier for Acros. Sarum/ Kingdom were the best maps for Acro as you can easily jump to non-accessible areas and can kill the scouts who chase you because they get heavy fall damaged. Anyways, in the eternal battle of Acros vs Scouts, I am with the Acrobat
The scouts have already won the battle. Even warrior is used more than acro although the rubberbanding is fixed. Warriors currently have a bug where their attack bonus is +2 instead of +1 so their wooden swords deal as much damage as iron swords Also skybridges are incredibly rare
