The Rapid Blaster Pro is a Rapid Blaster with an elongated handle and barrel, and increased range to match. Its range is the greatest of all blasters. As a trade-off, it has a slightly slower fire rate and higher ink consumption compared to the Rapid Blaster. Damage output and blast size are identical for both weapons.

Sheldon's Introduction

The Rapid Blaster Pro owes its incredible range to a chamber system that delays ink oxidization to the last possible moment! If you match this range with the S2 Weapon Sub Toxic Mist.png Toxic Mist, your opponents will curse your very existence! The S2 Weapon Special Ink Storm.png Ink Storm provides cover for your teammates, so I'd recommend this set for players who enjoy the technical aspects of battle!
