Description

Nearly identical to the Splattershot Pro, the Forge Splattershot Pro is an advanced weapon in terms of power and rate of fire, making it easy to use for more experienced players. It comes in a set with the Point Sensor and Inkzooka.

A Splattershot Pro created in partnership with Forge, the only name in high-quality sports gear. A tricky Point Sensor sub weapon supports the reliable main weapon.

Sheldon's Introduction

What do you get when you cross a pro weapon with top gear brand Forge? It's the Forge Splattershot Pro! Its stats haven't changed, but the Point Sensor and Inkzooka open up new tactical potential! Like the Splattershot Pro, it's not the easiest weapon to handle, so try it out if you've got what it takes!

Notes

This weapon is lethal from a distance and great for competitive play. But it shoots very straight and is outclassed by other weapons in terms of turf coverage. This is a three-hit-kill weapon, but its low rate of fire can leave you at a disadvantage when facing opponents with faster firing weapons, like the Splattershot Jr. That said, keeping your foe at a distance is key here—consider the Ink Saver (Main) ability if you trust your aim, and Ink Saver (Sub) if your faith waivers.

Name Origin

Forge Splattershot Pro is a combination of Splatter (as well as Splat), Shot and the shortened form of Professional. It has the Forge brand name as a prefix to differentiate it from the Splattershot Pro. It also denotes that the weapon is a collaboration with Forge.

Its japanese name, プライムシューターコラボ puraimu shūtā korabo, means "Prime Shooter Collab". The abbreviated prefix Collab denotes it is a collaboration. However, unlike the English name, it doesn't specify the brand Forge.
