Ink Saver (Sub) is an ability in Splatoon and Splatoon 2. Firefin gear has a 5× chance of rolling this ability.
Ink Saver (Sub) decreases the ink usage of Sub Weapons. The revised ink usage of the Sub Weapon is indicated by the red arrow icon on the Ink Tank.
Splatoon
Ink Saver (Sub) decreases the ink usage of each sub weapon by up to 35%.
Use
The Ink Saver (Sub) ability is great for sub weapons that consume a lot of the user's ink such as Seekers or Splash Walls. The ability allows the user to deploy such sub weapons more frequently, as less ink is used per sub weapon because of Ink Saver (Sub). With six sub slots of Ink Saver Sub, an extra Burst Bomb can be thrown before refilling ink. With one main slot and 5 sub slots, an extra Splat Bomb can be thrown.
