Screen shake or cockpit shake occurs when one is it by a [[weapon]] with "Explosive Pressure." This causes one's aim to move around and shake. Weapons with high screen shake can cause enemies to be suppressed and [[hide]]. It can also cause enemies to miss some of their shots or wait longer in-between shots (decreasing their [[DPS]]). If one is equipped with multiple weapons that can cause screen shake, it is recommended to [[chain-fire]] those weapons to spread out the shaking and disrupt the enemy for longer.

Screenshake is a mechanic where you can disrupt your targets aim by shaking their cockpit. Receiving screenshake will shake your crosshair, and field of view in proportion to the offending weapons Explosion Pressure, which disorients pilots and interrupts aim.

Screenshake can be a minor annoyance at worst, and a devastating counter at its best. Many of the highest damage weapons are particularly vulnerable to being interrupted with screenshake, and a skilled pilot can utilize their screenshake weapon to potentially interrupt any weapon given their knowledge of recycle times, and eye for aim.

Screen shake or cockpit shake occurs when one is it by a weapon with "Explosive Pressure." This causes one's aim to move around and shake. Weapons with high screen shake can cause enemies to be suppressed and hide. It can also cause enemies to miss some of their shots or wait longer in-between shots (decreasing their DPS). If one is equipped with multiple weapons that can cause screen shake, it is recommended to chain-fire those weapons to spread out the shaking and disrupt the enemy for longer.
