I realy want him so bad because of his looks, but I'm not sure if his attacks are so great...

Can someone explain me how to use him wisely, and if he's good in generall.

I would realy like to know.

thanks.

Rattle Shake has some neat attacks. His primary attack allows him to either make the red snake spit venom or at least shoot the red snake out. One of his upgrade paths per it him to make the red snake bounce off of enemies like a light in a maze full of mirrors. His bottom path can summon skeletal snakes. If I were you, I choose Coiled Ammunition and Bone Herder for Rattle Shake. But there's also a super rare figure, Quickdraw Rattle Shake.

My neighbor boy lol has him, he looks great, but I don't think he's that fantastic, bit general moves, shooting and stuff


His figure looks fantastic and his looks are fantastic, but I wouldn't buy him

He is a really good and strong character but Fire Kraken is better for attacks and looks.

his deputy snake is pretty good keeps your enemies slow, and it is fire and forget.

I don't like his bottom though would prefer someting faster or something to keep your enemies at bay

Why does everyone prefer Fire Kraken over Rattle Shake?

Fire Kraken isnt nearly as strong as Rattle Shake and doesnt even look better. He looks ugly IMO.

Rattle Shake is VERY strong. His primary attack does decent damage. He can also shot very fast. If you hold it down he is going to shot out the snake wich is bouncing of from multiple enemies.

But his deputy snake is the path you want to go for for his upper half. You dont have to wait till its up like Sprockets turrets. It cant get destroyed neither and does a great damage.

His lower half can be strong. I dont use the bottom attack to deal damage since the damage isnt high enough. Im using it to knock back the enemies. If you shoot at an enemie with you snake poison and he is getting very close you just have to attack him with the tail and you can continue attacking him with poison.

He slows down opponents with venom, making rattle charge an amazing swap.

A couple reasons why I said that.

If you got the console(which everyone knows you did or this topic wouldn't exist) version, you probably don't have an undead character.

If you are trying to collect only one of each swap type, Rattle Shake is one of them.

Plus, rapid fire + long range = greatness in my mind.

Rattle Shake in my opinion is a better character than Fire Kraken. His ranged attacks are very good and his deputy works well. Actually, he is pretty tough to beat in arenas, as well.

I have to agree that Fire Kraken is kind of ugly and a bit overrated, but I don't have him so I don't know how strong he is.

As for Rattle Shake, he's a decent Skylander. His venom shots don't do much damage, but they have a fast fire rate. The coiled snake does a lot more damage and bounces off of enemies. And his tail attack is useful when surrounded since it knocks enemies back and later upgrades allow you to shoot snake skull projectiles when you perform it.

But what makes Rattle Shake really dangerous (especially in arenas) is his Deputy Snake. It's the best helper a Skylander could have. It has a fast fire rate, long range, perfect aim, slows enemies with its poison, does decent damage, and the best part is that enemies completely ignore it, so it's practically invincible. The only drawback is that you can only have one active at a time. I recommend the Deputy's Duty and Bone Herder paths for Rattle Shake.

Hes not bad. I was just expecting him to have an Australian accent, not French. Lol. He kinda reminds me of the crocodile hunter with that outfit.

I think he's great fun smilie

He's full of character and a blast to use. He seems like a cross between Antonio Banderas and Clint Eastwood.
Snake's Venom is a quick firing ranged attack, he's got Tail Sweep for if he's surrounded and to take advantage of the knockback mechanic and Deputy Snake deploys an ever useful AI drone ally. Plus, pulling a snake taught in his "gun" to fire it is comic genius smilie
