During a wildcard rotation, the weapons loaned to players are random and not known until the start of a wave. There are no limits as to how many players can be using the same weapon at once, and the player can receive the same weapon multiple times in a game. On September 16, 2017 at {{UTC|hour=00|minute=00|year=2017|month=09|day=16}}, the first wildcard rotation took place. The rotation occurred in [[Spawning Grounds]] with the rare weapon: [[File:S2 Weapon Main Grizzco Blaster.png|Grizzco Brella|24px]] Grizzco Blaster.
There are two types of wildcard rotation: During the first kind, the weapons loaned to all four players are random and not known until the start of a wave. During the second kind, three weapons are pre-set, and the fourth is a wildcard slot. [[Rare weapon]]s appear only at the random slot(s).

Template:InfoboxMode Salmon Run is a co-op multiplayer mode in Splatoon 2 for up to four players. It can be played via local multiplayer (local wireless or LAN) at The Shoal, or online via Grizzco Industries during certain time slots.

Description

Each Salmon Run consists of three waves; to complete waves, players must collect Power Eggs Power Eggs and Golden Eggs Golden Eggs by defeating Salmonids and depositing them at an egg basket. Each Boss Salmonid splatted yields three Golden Eggs Golden Eggs; if they are not picked up, a Snatcher will appear after a few seconds to retrieve them. Each player can carry one Golden Eggs Golden Egg at a time.

Each wave has a quota, which varies based on the number of players present. If the quota is not filled before the wave timer ends or if all players are splatted, they will fail the run. Completing a run will increase the player's pay grade, which also determines the difficulty of runs. If they fail, players are still paid for the Golden Eggs Golden Eggs they collected, but their pay grade may be reduced.

Inklings in this mode are equipped with special gear that allows them to be revived if they are splatted. When splatted, a lifesaver will appear at their last position after a few seconds. By Inking it, a teammate can save them and they come back with a short period of invulnerability. If they collected a Golden Eggs Golden Egg before being splatted, it will not be lost and they can deposit it after being revived.

Each player is provided a different main weapon for each wave, and two uses of a special weapon to last all three waves. These include the Inkjet, Sting Ray, Splashdown or File:S2 Weapon Special Splat Bomb Launcher.png Splat Bomb Launcher. There are also various special waves called Known Occurrences, such Fog and Rush.[1]

In Salmon Run, Inklings' Ink level and special weapon uses are displayed visually. The lifesaver on their back obscures their Ink Tank, but fills up to reflect their Ink level. Their special weapon stock appears as two silver packets strapped to their hat, which disappear as special weapons are used.

Rotations

Salmon Run is not always playable online, as the Grizzco Industries building is sometimes closed. It opens in an irregular pattern, but can be expected to be available every other day. Each Salmon Run rotation features one random stage and four random weapons to be assigned to players.

The stages menu shows the opening times of the next five Salmon Run rotations, with the stages and weapons shown for the next two. Due to the rotations being laid out in advance, newly-added stages and weapons may not appear for some time.

Loaned weapons

All main weapons aside from variants can appear in a Salmon Run rotation.

Stats

Main article: Salmon Run/Stats

Main weapons loaned to players have different stats than their standard multiplayer counterparts.

Stages

There are currently four stages available for Salmon Run:

Wildcard rotation

There are two types of wildcard rotation: During the first kind, the weapons loaned to all four players are random and not known until the start of a wave. During the second kind, three weapons are pre-set, and the fourth is a wildcard slot. Rare weapons appear only at the random slot(s). There are no limits as to how many players can be using the same weapon at once (including rare weapons and repeats of the pre-set weapons in a partially wildcard rotation), and the player can receive the same weapon multiple times in a game (again, including rare weapons).

Rare weapons

A rare weapon being loaned to a player during a rotation with randomized weapons.

During wildcard rotations, one of Mr. Grizz's personal weapons will be accidentally added to the mix. Grizzco weapons are tweaked versions of normal weapons with much more powerful stats. The following weapons have been available:

  • Grizzco Blaster - A rapid-fire Blaster with moderate damage. It appears to be an illegally modified Blaster. The firing rate is much higher than even the Clash Blaster.
  • Grizzco Brella - A rapid-fire Brella with moderate damage. It appears to be an illegally modified Splat Brella. There is no canopy on this Brella, so it cannot open. Instead, holding down the trigger fires rapidly, similar to the Undercover Brella.

Events

Main article: Known Occurrence

There are currently 7 different events in Salmon Run, with some having variants.

Ranks

There are 6 possible ranks in Salmon Run:

  • Intern (2 tutorials)
  • Apprentice (0 - 99)
  • Part-Timer (0 - 99)
  • Go-Getter (0 - 99)
  • Overachiever (0 - 99)
  • Profreshional (0 - 99+)

Rewards

Completion of a round of Salmon Run grants players Grizzco Points, which they can redeem for bonus prizes at the window outside Grizzco. The reward amount is based on the number of Golden Eggs Golden Eggs and Power Eggs Power Eggs collected and the player's current pay grade. The player's Job Score is equal to one point per Golden Eggs Golden Egg plus one point for every Power Eggs Power Eggs (rounded down), and the final reward is the Job Score times the player's Pay Grade (rounded down).

Pay Grade goes up by 20 points (not 20%) when a player makes quota for all three waves. Pay Grade goes down by 20 points if the first wave is failed, or by 10 points if the second wave is failed. As Pay Grade increases, players are awarded titles. Titles are retained across hiring periods, but pay grades are reset to the 40-point mark within the player's current title. Titles are: Intern (during the tutorials only), Apprentice, Part-Timer, Go-Getter, Overachiever, and Profreshional.

Every 100 Grizzco Points (200 after reaching 1200 points in a rotation) earns the player one bonus "capsule," which come in different colors representing the type of the contents, or a piece of Gear. The gear is selected from a list of items available only through Salmon Run, and is rotated every calendar month. The main ability of this item is randomly determined when the bonus is redeemed. It usually has three blank slots for sub abilities, but there is a random chance that the sub ability slots may come already filled. The pink capsule can contain any Grizzco gear that has been released, including gear from previous months. If the player receives gear they already have, they can either replace the old gear with the new version, or receive Cash cash (if the new gear has no slots filled) or ability chunks (equal to the filled slots) instead.

The most unclaimed bonuses a player can have at a time is 99; once the limit has been reached, any new bonuses will be lost.

Bonus capsules can contain Cash cash, meal or drink tickets, ability chunks, or Grizzco gear.

The question mark capsule seen in local multiplayer.
Reward Type 50% 40% 10%
Blue Capsule Cash. One drink ticket. Three drink tickets.
Anchor Life Vest Gear No slots. One slot. Three slots.
Green Capsule Cash. Two ability chunks. Four ability chunks.
Orange Capsule Cash. One 1.5× ticket. One 2× ticket.
Pink Capsule (gear) No slots. One slot. Three slots.
Yellow Capsule Cash. Cash. Cash.

At 600 and 1200 points the player will earn a superbonus, which always contains the 10% chance reward. The type of superbonus capsule is fixed for the length of a rotation. After 1200 points the player will only earn gear, alternating between the current monthly gear and gear from previous months, until the rotation ends.
