Cold-Blooded is rather versatile, as any weapon or play style can benefit from not being tracked. However, it reaches its full potential when used with a stealthy, mobile weapon, such as the {{Weapon|S|Main|Carbon Roller}} or {{Weapon|S|Main|Octobrush}} as it can enhance the sneakiness of a weapon, facilitating ambushes. A loud or otherwise conspicuous weapon may give itself away to surrounding enemies, no tracking needed.

Cold Blooded shortens the duration of position-tracking to 50% of normal tracking time. It is restricted to [[clothing]] as a main ability, and cannot be rolled as a sub ability.

Cold Blooded shortens the duration of position-tracking by 50% of the normal tracking time.
===Mutual exclusivity===
This ability is found as the main ability only on [[clothing]], so other abilities found only on clothing are mutually exclusive with it; in other words players cannot have them together. These abilities are {{Ability|S|Recon}}, {{Ability|S|Haunt}}, and {{Ability|S|Ninja Squid}}. In addition, since wearing the [[Splatfest Tee]] was mandatory during a [[Splatfest]], these abilities could not be used for the duration of those events.

===Data===
Cold Blooded reduces tracking duration by 50%. This applies to all forms of tracking:
 
* {{Weapon|S|Sub|Point Sensor}}s normally last eight seconds, but this is reduced to four seconds.
* {{Ability|S|Haunt}} normally lasts nine seconds, but is reduced to roughly 4.5 seconds.
* The {{Weapon|S|Special|Echolocator}}'s duration can vary if the user has {{Ability|S|Special Duration Up}} equipped. Without any, it will have its tracking time reduced from nine seconds to 4.5 seconds. With the maximum amount of Special Duration Up equipped, it will last 12.6 seconds normally and 6.3 seconds on a target with Cold Blooded.

In Splatoon 2, Cold-Blooded was a stackable ability that was available on any gear type. It could stop the tracking effects of Point Sensors, Ink Mines, Thermal Ink, Haunt, and Sting Ray.

In version 4.3.0, Cold-Blooded was retired, and its effects got combined with Bomb Defense Up to make a new ability: Bomb Defense Up DX. The default ability of all gear with Cold-Blooded (except the Gray FA-11 Bomber, Pearlescent Crown and Fringed Loafers) was changed to Main Power Up, while existing gear with the Cold-Blooded ability was overwritten with Bomb Defense Up DX.
