Stinger
Stingers are Boss Salmonids that appear in Salmon Run in Splatoon 2.
Description
They use a weapon similar to the Sting Ray to splat Inklings at extreme range and through walls. Stingers typically appear close to the shorelines, but can move around rather slowly. Stingers always appear on a stack of cooking pots placed on top of a gas burner. To defeat them, Inklings must shoot away the pots until the Stinger lands on the burner. Their attacks are much more accurate than a player-controlled Sting Ray's and can take out an Inkling within a few seconds if they cannot dodge it, so players should focus on this Salmonid.
In-Game Information
Basic Information
- A Salmonid sniper atop a stack of pots and pans.
- Not known to move from the beach.
- The Salmonid on top can't be harmed with ink-based attacks.
Attack Behaviour
- Attacks from a distance with powerful jets of ink that can pass through walls and other obstacles.
Elimination
- Use your ink to knock pots away one at a time until the Salmonid lands on the flame below.
Supporting Information
- Boils ink in its pots to generate the pressure required for its long-range attacks.
- The pots are stacked high on top of a gas burner to allow the Stinger to effectively sight and attack enemies from a distance.
- The Salmonid on top wears protective equipment to absorb the shock from the jet of ink.
Tips & Strategies
- Weapons that have fast attack speeds like the Tri-Slosher and Splattershot lower Stingers especially quickly. By contrast, slower weapons such as rollers or the Jet Squelcher are left vulnerable for long periods of time while lowering Stingers.
- Blasters can take out multiple sections of the Stinger.
- Although this boss is very easy to eliminate, it can prove to be a deadly boss as this thing has almost free control of the Sting Ray and often focuses on one player. Try to eliminate Stingers before they stack up.
