Splatterscope

The Splatterscope is a main weapon in Splatoon and Splatoon 2.

The Splatterscope is Splat Charger with a scope attached. Compared to the scopeless version it has enhanced range and a zoomed view for greater aiming precision, but players have their field of vision limited by the scope. The scoped version also loses the ability to store a charge in Splatoon 2. Besides range, all other stats are the same as the Splat Charger.

Splatoon
The Splatterscope comes with Splat Bombs and the Bomb Rush.

Splatoon 2
The Splatterscope returns for Splatoon 2, with visual changes. It was not given the charge holding feature that the Splat Charger and other chargers were given. It comes with Splat Bombs and the Sting Ray.
 * Unlike Damage Up in Splatoon, while Main Power Up increases damage, it does not allow shots below full charge to reach 100.0 damage.

Gameplay
The Splatterscope is a long range charger, designed for pin-point accuracy. Due to the scope, it is considerably less beginner friendly than other chargers. With an experienced user though, it becomes an extremely deadly and effective weapon. It’s best stage is arguably Moray Towers, where you can see the entire stage. If the player is skilled, they can wipe the entire enemy team out in less than a minute. In short, it is not the easiest weapon to use, but if you do, you can ensure victory for you and your team.
