Fish scales are a currency in Splatoon 3. They are obtained from the King Salmonid in Salmon Run Next Wave.

Earning

Fish scales can only be obtained from reaching an Xtrawave in Salmon Run Next Wave. Each player is guaranteed to earn at least 2 scales, with an additional scale for every 12.5% (1/8) of damage done to the King Salmonid's health bar (rounded down). If the players manage to defeat the King Salmonid, they earn an extra scale for every 10 seconds remaining in the Xtrawave, up to a maximum of 30 seconds.[1] Fish scales have 3 rarities consisting of Bronze, Silver, and Gold. The quality of scales gained is determined by the hazard level of the King Salmonid fought.[2] The probability of a received scale being Silver or Gold is 5% and 0% respectively at the minimum hazard level of 0%, then 20% and 3% respectively at the maximum hazard level of 333%. The probability increases linearly for intermediate hazard levels.[1] Regardless of contribution, each player receives the same number and quality of scales.

Examples

  • A team of Go-Getters reduces the King Salmonid to 70% health before being wiped out. Each player earns 4 total scales (2 guaranteed and an additional 2 for damage dealt), all four being Bronze.
  • At Hazard Level MAX, a team manages to defeat the King Salmonid with 12 seconds left on the clock. Each player recieves 11 scales (2+8+1), including 2 silver and 1 gold. There is a 29% chance to get at least one gold scale in this scenario.
  • Another team manages to defeat the King Salmonid within just 38 seconds, recieving the maximum of 13 scales (2+8+3), 4 silver and 9 bronze.

Fish scales can be exchanged for Splashtag banner designs or items like various Boss Salmonid statues and stickers for the locker room. They can also be exchanged for different colored Grizzco Industries-approved alternate work outfits.

By default, only a few select items are available, and spending scales unlocks more items from the Grizzco shop:

  • After spending at least 100 bronze and 10 silver scales, more offers are unlocked, especially two more work suits.
  • After spending at least 350 bronze, 40 silver, and 4 gold scales, all items are available for purchase.[3]
