The Pinging Marciale is a Jelleton boss in Splatoon 3: Side Order.

Strategy

The Pinging Marciale is only vulnerable on its exposed faces most of the time; however, certain attacks will force it to open its shell and expose itself. It can attack by ramming (which also drops Suction Bombs if it is fought on 20F), dropping Splat Bombs (one at a time on 10F and three at a time on 20F), launching Homing Arpeggios, and firing Killer Wail beams along an axis. Attacking it will make it roll in the direction it was hit in, possibly causing it to move out of reach.

The arena contains several bumpers, which will cause the Pinging Marciale to bounce around on contact; if the Pinging Marciale hits a glowing bumper, it will receive damage and open its shell but will produce a shock wave and summon Jelleton reinforcements. It should be noted that Battering Lentos will try to push Pinging Marciale around, making its subsequent rolling difficult to predict.

As it receives damage, the boss grows smaller and more bumpers appear in the arena. It will also fire more Killer Wail beams ar once and roll more quickly.

When it's rolling around, aim for
its exposed parts. If it hits a
bumper, it'll bounce off and leave
behind a swarm of fish. Not ideal,
but a chance for a Lucky Chain.

The other thing that happens
when it bounces is the shell opens
a little, making the insides easier
to hit. Go with whatever tactic is
best for your weapon.

Nobody's gonna talk about how it
suddenly charges you full steam,
huh? Better lay down some ink
and scram when that happens!
Conclusion
Think ahead and fight smart!
