The Rainmaker Shield is a protective bubble surrounding the Rainmaker. It behaves as a shield in Octo Valley, but doesn't restore health nor carries a Zapfish. When too close to the Shield, when opposing teammates are standing close to it when it'll explode, the Inkling will get splatted if the shield has exploded.

Rainmaker Shield

Data

The Rainmaker Shield has 1000 HP, but many weapon types have a damage multiplier applied when they hit the Shield. The multiplier values are detailed in the tables below. However, Weapons with Roller Mechanics (Examples: Splat Roller, Inkbrush, and the Octobrush) when used for rolling on the Shield won't damage the shield, but when about to use the weapon as a roller, they can still be good weapons to break the shield.

• 

  Shooters

• 

  Rollers and Brushes

• 

  Blasters and Sloshers

• 

  Chargers and Splatlings
