.52 Gal
The .52 Gal is a Main Weapon in Splatoon.
Description
The .52 Gal is in a set with the Splash Wall and Killer Wail. Each shot uses a large amount of ink, so it packs a serious punch. Since it has a low rate of fire, careful aiming is required in order to hit opponents.
| “ | A high-powered Weapon that pumps out a lot of ink with each shot. It doesn't take many shots to splat an opponent, which is a good thing given its rather slow rate of fire. | ” |

Notes
| “ | The .52 Gal excels at offensive game modes like Splat Zones- it only takes two shots from this weapon to splat opponents, making it a great choice for offensively minded players. Consider using a Damage Up ability in place of Ink Saver to help break an enemy's Defense Up buff, or use Special Charge Up to compensate for the weapon's low rate of fire. | ” |
