The Splattershot Nova has Point Sensors and the Killer Wail 5.1. It has long range comparable to the Splattershot Pro but with a faster fire rate, less accuracy, and weaker damage, making its stats similar to the Dual Squelcher. It is tied with the Aerospray series of weapons for the lowest damage stat of any shooter. It was added along with Chill Season 2022 on 2022-12-01.
