Shooter

File:Shooter Splatoon Direct.png

Shooters are one of the five Main Weapon classifications in Splatoon. Shooters are fast guns that fire small blobs of Ink in quick succession. With the exception of the Nozzlenose-type weapons, all Shooters continuously fire when the player holds Template:ZR.

    • Neo Sploosh-o-matic – Identical to the Sploosh-o-matic, but with Point Sensors and the Kraken for more of an independent role.

    • .96 Gal Deco – Identical to the .96 Gal, but instead comes with the Splash Wall and the Kraken for an aggressive role.

Blasters

Blasters are an unofficial Sub Class of Shooters that fire large, slow globs of Ink that explode in mid-air. While they are poor at Inking turf, they excel at splatting enemies. As a result, Blaster users may struggle with Turf Wars, but can be very valuable in Ranked Battles. They are especially good at Tower Control, being able to simply pummel the tower from up close with their wide blast radius.

• The Standard Blaster Series
  • Blaster – Shoots large globs that explode into ink. A direct hit is a one-hit splat, but it is weak at turf coverage due to its low fire rate. Comes with Disruptors and the Killer Wail.
    • Custom Blaster – Identical to the Blaster, but with Point Sensors and the Bubbler for a more support-oriented role.
  • Range Blaster – Similar to the Blaster in both appearance and play style, but with a longer range. However, this comes at the cost of an even slower rate of fire and a slight reduction in damage. It comes in a set with the Splash Wall and the Inkstrike.
    • Custom Range Blaster – Identical to the Range Blaster, but with the Splat Bomb and Kraken for a more direct role.
• The Rapid Blaster Series
  • Rapid Blaster – Does less damage, making it the only Blaster that cannot splat enemies in one hit, but has a faster fire rate and impressive range, even longer than the Range Blaster. Comes with Ink Mines and the Bubbler.
    • Rapid Blaster Deco – Identical to the Rapid Blaster, but with Suction Bombs and Bomb Rush. for a more aggressive play style.
  • Rapid Blaster Pro - Similar to the Rapid Blaster, but sacrifices some of its fire rate for an even longer range, the longest out of all Blasters. It comes in a set with Seekers and the Inkzooka.
• The Luna Blaster Series
  • Luna Blaster – An extremely short-range Blaster, but has a very large blast radius and is slightly faster. Comes with Ink Mines and the Inkzooka.
    • Luna Blaster Neo - Identical to the the Luna Blaster, but with Splat Bombs and Bomb Rush for better Inking capabilities.
