Octoling Shades
The Octoling Shades are headgear in Splatoon 2.
They are a 2-star item produced by Cuttlegear and come with the primary ability Last-Ditch Effort. They are obtained from the Octo Expansion by talking to Iso Padre after collecting one set of mem cakes (including grayscale mem cakes). They must then be claimed from a box in Inkopolis Square after completing the Octo Expansion. They cannot be ordered from another player.
Appearance
The Octoling Shades are a pair of shield style sunglasses that enemy Octolings in Octo Canyon and Octo Expansion wear. They have red rims and a glowing red dot on the left eye.
Splatoon 2
Abilities
The Octoling Shades come with Last-Ditch Effort as the primary ability, which, being exclusive to the main slot of Headgear, prevents the wearer from also having Comeback, Opening Gambit, or Tenacity. As a 2-star item, the Octoling Shades come with two additional slots for secondary abilities, which may be increased to a maximum of three slots with a Super Sea Snail for each slot. Since they are made by the Cuttlegear gear brand, they have equal chances to roll any secondary ability.
Trivia
- The glowing red dot visible is a reference to the 1984 film The Terminator, in which the titular T-800 Model 101 Terminator eventually has his human facade damaged and his glowing red robotic eye becomes visible, even when he disguises it with a pair of sunglasses that themselves are similar in appearance.
