The .96 Gal is a main weapon in the Splatoon series.
As a member of the shooter class, this weapon distinguishes itself by sacrificing fire rate, ink efficiency, and mobility for powerful shots and long range. The .96 Gal outputs enough ink in each shot to splat opponents in two hits. Consequently, the weapon has a high ink consumption rate of 2.5% per shot, making it the ink-thirstiest of all weapons in the shooter class (excluding blasters) and only allowing for 40 shots to be fired per ink tank. The weapon's fire rate is slower than all other shooter-class weapons (also excluding blasters), measuring at slightly slower than the Octobrush's flick rate. A major drawback of the .96 Gal is its poor accuracy for a long-ranged weapon; many shots can deviate far enough to the left or right that they may miss the target. The .96 Gal and its close relative the .52 Gal share their visual design and high-damage, low-accuracy performance.
Appearance
The .96 is designed with a water cooler bottle as a base. A grip, sight, and high-caliber gun barrel are clamped to the bottle. The parts surrounding the bottle are black plastic with pink accents, while the bottle matches the player's ink color.

Sheldon's Introduction
The .96 Gal's main weapon has an extra-large ink tank, allowing for powerful shots with a lot of range!
And the Sprinkler and Echolocator can be used to keep foes riiiiiiight where you want them.
So it's an excellent weapon for fighters who want to control the pace of battle!(NA)[a] |

Sheldon's Introduction
The .96 Gal is a shooter that hits hard and has long range, courtesy of its large chamber and extended barrel! Of course, with that, you can't expect much from the fire rate, so make each shot count as you use the Sprinkler to spread ink! Also be sure to support your teammates with the Ink Armor! I recommend this for tactical players who want to squash their opponents in an all-out war! |
