Well I'm 85 and sniping newts. At first I would try to keep 3 otcopi going.(Octo build.) I would stop halfway inbetween killing a newt and summon it. I felt like it slowed me down. Now I saw SOME videos on youtube and maybe half of them only summoned octo when they FINISHED killing the newts ONLY if the summon was ready. Should I be constantly trying to get 3 octo or should I just spam BF and summon octo when they die?

put it this way bs > octo only summon octo when there is no newt octo hits once while bs hits 3 times

In my experience, it's faster to level Ice Splitter to 26 first, so you can kill two newties, then getting octo first. I got 26 IS first, and I didn't really summon alot of octo's during training at newties there anyways.

Well I'm lv 85 and I have 21 Octo already so too late lol :P Anyways, maybe I'm just noob but the newtie spawns IMMEDIATELY after I kill the previous one. Which means I don't have no waiting time. Which also means that there'd be no point of freezing 2 since the newtie respawns. Like if I hold on to BF for 20 seconds, it probably wouldn't hit "nothing." The newtie spawns so fast that my next BF hits it immediately. I don't know if this is just me or what. But yeah.. The only time it doesn't respawn is when I accidentally fall off. AKA when I kill too slow.
