As a [[brush]], when {{Button|ZR|Switch}} is pressed, it flicks splashes of [[ink]] in front of the user, with a higher damage and longer range compared with other brushes, which can be done repeatedly at a quite fast rate, after a slow first swing, to ink turf or splat opponents. If {{Button|ZR|Switch}} is held, the user will push the Painbrush along the ground, leaving a trail of ink as the user runs at a fast speed.

Compared to other brushes, its speed while pushing it on the ground is comparable to [[Octobrush]]'s one, while the surface covered in flicked ink is visibly narrower among the brushes.

It rolls with a speed comparable to the [[Octobrush]] and also has more range. Though, unlike other brushes, which typically fling ink in a wide area, the Painbrush spreads ink in a much more narrow field, straight ahead of the user, similar to the [[Splatana]]'s horizontal slash. At its maximum potential, it takes 2 hits to splat an opponent; since this can happen only when the Painbrush wielder is close enough to their enemy, this weapon takes averagely 3 landed splashes of ink to splat an opponent, still holding the highest power among the Brush class.
The Painbrush has [[Curling Bomb]]s and the [[Wave Breaker]]. As a [[brush]], when {{Button|ZR|Switch}} is pressed, it rapidly flicks splashes of [[ink]] in front of the user with higher damage and longer range compared with other brushes, but as a tradeoff it possesses a long windup on the first of a series of swings and a narrower spread of ink left on surfaces with each swing. If {{Button|ZR|Switch}} is held, the user will push the Painbrush along the ground, leaving a trail of ink as the user runs at a fast speed comparable to that of the [[Octobrush]].

The Painbrush has Curling Bombs and the Wave Breaker. As a brush, when is pressed, it rapidly flicks splashes of ink in front of the user with higher damage and longer range compared with other brushes, but as a tradeoff it possesses a long windup on the first of a series of swings and a narrower spread of ink left on surfaces with each swing. If is held, the user will push the Painbrush along the ground, leaving a trail of ink as the user runs at a fast speed comparable to that of the Octobrush.

Data

  • The Painbrush is a middleweight weapon.
  • The matchmaking range is 13.1. The game's matchmaking system looks at a team's average matchmaking range value, and matches them against a team with a similar average.
  • Ink consumption per second while sliding is 10.8%.
  • While sliding, the player's movement speed is set to 0.18 units per frame.
  • After rolling, there is a 0.33 second cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
  • Hitting an opponent while sliding deals 30 damage.
  • While sliding, the Painbrush leaves an ink trail that is 2.6 units wide.

Flinging ink

  • The ink consumption of 4.8% allows players to attack 20 times before needing to refill the ink supply.
    • This stat can be changed with Ink Saver (Main).
  • When attacking, it takes 23 frames to start swinging the brush.
  • The weapon can be swung every 15 frames (4 times per second).
  • When attacking while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.024 units per frame.
  • After swinging, there is a 0.83 second cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
  • Attacks have a base damage of 60.
  • For normal attacks, ink loses damage based on distance traveled. Ink starts losing damage at 5.0 units and stops losing damage at 13.0 units. The minimum damage is 31.
  • If a glob of ink is in the air for more than 24 frames after being flung, it loses damage each frame until frame 45, at which point it will deal 50% of its original damage.
  • Damage does not change based on the angle of the ink.

Sheldon's Introduction

If you like brushes but wish they had a bit more range and power, then you've got to experience the Painbrush for yourself! It's all thanks to a unique 90 degree rotation by the brush head, giving this weapon the most range of ANY brush out there. The trade-off is that each swing is a bit slower, but this is still a brush we're talking about. You'll be flying across the map, and you can use Curling Bomb to blaze your path. Add in the Wave Breaker special to light up your enemies, and you've got a potent set designed for speed and extreme range!

SRL Ballistics back again! The S-BLAST was and IS cool, but we can only watch the video so many times. Now we're on to the Painbrush, the biggest, heaviest, and NEWEST brush in the game! Please hold while we watch and analyze our new Painbrush video 2,479 times.

And here it is in action! Note how the first swing is slow, but subsequent swings fling ink fast and wide. Plus, you can hold down the Button to advance quickly as needed. If battling is an art, this brush could be... an art tool? IDK. We're scientists, not artists.
