Triad



The Triad is a single-fire, front-loading pistol blaster. It is shorter than the Firestrike because the plunger system runs through the handle of the blaster. Even though it is single-fire, the rate of fire is faster than the Firestrike because the Triad has three barrels with smart air restrictors. When a dart is placed in any of the three barrels, the air restrictor is deactivated in a sense and allows air to go to the dart. When all three barrels are have darts in them, it still only fire’s one at a time, but because you have to two other barrels ready, you don’t have to reload a dart every time you fire it. The downside is the barrels are in a triangle formation, so only one barrel actually lines up with the “iron sight” on the Triad. The centers of the other two barrels are positioned about a centimeter away from the iron sight, resulting in a slight decrease in accuracy.

Out of the box you get the blaster and three N-Strike Elite darts.

To use the blasters, load all three, two, or just one barrel. Pull the plunger rod, and pull the trigger. Repeat until empty.

Usability
Casual Nerfing: Like the Firestrike, it’s a great beginners blaster because it teaches you to make every dart count. It also helps that it has a better rate of fire is little faster than the Firestrike.

Rating: 8.5/10

War Games: All the things from the Firestrike apply to the Triad; only the Triad is better at suppressing since it has a slightly faster rate of fire, but is slightly less accurate.

Rating: 8.5/10

Humans vs Zombies: The Triad is a much better choice than the Firestrike because you won’t be reloading as often. You have three shots ready at your disposal, so if you run out of your primary, and there are THREE zombies left you an shoot them without reloading.

Rating: 7.5/10

Everything said about the Firestrike can be applied to the Triad; except for the increase in rate of fire and the slight decrease in accuracy. The increase in rate of fire makes up for the decrease in accuracy.
