![]() The Codebreaker is awkwardly small, notoriously unreliable with non-perfect darts and not all that good a blaster. Personal Rating: 2.5/5 - while really cool in concept, I feel like it hasn't been executed too well. Pros: Sleek shell, smooth pump action, string allows for very easy power modificationĬons: Performance is generally poor, severe reliability issues, offers basically no advantage over similar priced alternatives, stock is very short, handle is a little small Unless you're in love with the shell, I'd give the Codebreaker a miss. For 6AUD more, the Crossbolt is a far superior and more practical stringer blaster (though it shares the Codebreaker's hatred of imperfect darts), while the cheaper Flipfury and the same priced Retal are practically superior in many aspects. While it does compare favourably to the (slightly overpriced) Hammershot at 25AUD, the Codebreaker is generally not worth buying for its blasting ability. The Codebreaker retails for 29AUD at best, which is certainly not that good a deal when the Retal is available for the same price. ![]() The only reason to use a Codebreaker in combat is against pistol-sized blasters, and even then your only advantage will be capacity, as the performance is not notably good. Unfortunately, the Codebreaker's deep hatred of and refusal to fire non-perfect darts ruins its potential as a scavenging blaster. It's small for a primary blaster and doesn't have the capacity or performance to hold its own, and it's too big and impractical as a secondary. When first unveiled, I was hoping that the Codebreaker could be a stylish scavenging carbine, as its design leaves it no other practical use. 4dps can probably be achieved with pseudo-slam-fire, but I find it too unreliable and inconsistent to be useful. Rate of fire is pretty decent, being pump action and having an easy prime, 3dps is easily possible (at least with locks removed). It's not the worst I've seen, but it's far from the best and certainly incomparable to the Crossbolt. ![]() Even with the low power, I was getting a lot of spread from good quality Elites and even Kooshes. It should be noted though that I have heard that the Codebreaker's arms are not particularly robust, certainly less so than the Crossbolt's.Īccuracy is surprisingly not that great. The prime feels excessively weak, but at least being a stringer, getting a bit more power out of it is easy. That same year, the Nerf Ultra was released and is claimed to fire ammo up to a range of 120 feet. In 2019, Nerf introduced the Alpha Strike series, which is a budget friendly Blaster. Ranges are unimpressive, about 9-10m with good Elites. Nerf launched the Rebelle series in 2013, which includes colors and designs marketed towards girls.
