Rapid Blaster

The Rapid Blaster is a main weapon in the SS undefined.

The Rapid Blaster is a Shooter-class weapon (officially part of the Blaster Class in ) that is similar to the Blaster but fires much faster and has greater range. However, this comes at the cost of less Ink coverage, a smaller blast radius, and weaker shots. At minimum, it takes one direct hit and one indirect hit to splat an opponent with this weapon. Its close relative, the Rapid Blaster Pro, has slightly longer range and a slightly slower firing rate. The fire rate is faster than the Luna Blaster, and slower than the Clash Blaster.

Appearance
The Rapid Blaster is mainly red with a black handle. Attached to the nozzle is a gray part. The weapon has many odd attachments, including a bolt on the bottom part and a metal grate above the handle.

Splatoon
The Rapid Blaster comes with Ink Mines and Bubbler. Each shot consumes 8% of the ink tank capacity, and the ink tank recovers 1.67% of its capacity between each shot, allowing the player to fire 15 shots before needing to refill the tank.
