Gold Dynamo Roller

The Gold Dynamo Roller is a Main Weapon in Splatoon.

Description

Like all rollers, the Gold Dynamo Roller can cover turf while in motion and fling a large amount of ink at medium range. This weapon is identical to the Dynamo Roller in terms of range, speed, weight, and power. It comes in a set with the Splat Bomb and Inkstrike, and can only be purchased after collecting the Sunken Scroll from the DJ Octavio Boss Battle.

“	A Dynamo Roller with rearranged sub and special weapons. Lure the enemy out of hiding with the sub weapon, and then unleash the full force of your powerful roller.	”
— In-Game Description

Sheldon's Introduction The Gold Dynamo Roller is another roller I designed. It boasts the same power as the standard Dynamo Roller! I think the Dynamo Roller's offensive power nicely complements the reliable Splat Bombs and Inkstrike! Combine them all, and your attacks will hit home with unprecedented force! Your foes will flee before you! (NA)

Notes

“	This is a well-rounded loadout, ideal for ink coverage and offensive pushes. Splat Bombs offer additional ranged damage, helping scatter opponents and forcing them where you want them. Inkstrike gives the loadout even more offensive range, great for contesting Splat Zones without putting yourself at risk.	”

Recommended Abilities

Along with having the widest ink trail of the roller class weapons, the Gold Dynamo Roller also consumes ink faster than other rollers. Having Ink Saver Main is a big asset, as it reduces the amount of ink the roller uses.

Ink Recovery Up increases the speed ink is recovered in squid form, allowing the Gold Dynamo to spend less time recharging ink.
