 Sheldon's Introduction

The Splattershot Pro was developed for more advanced users by the team behind the S Weapon Main Splattershot.png Splattershot! Unbalance your foes with S Weapon Sub Splat Bomb.png Splat Bombs and S Weapon Special Inkstrike.png Inkstrikes, and then hit them with superb range and accuracy! Its ink efficiency and fire rate aren't as good as the standard Splattershot's hence the "pro." (NA)[a]

“ An updated S Weapon Main Splattershot.png Splattershot developed with advanced battlers in mind. Consumes a lot of ink and has a slow rate of fire, but its range and accuracy are vastly improved. ”

The Splattershot Pro returns in Splatoon 2 looking identical to how it did in the first game. It comes with the Point Sensor and Ink Storm.

Gameplay and tips

The Splattershot pro is a powerful slayer weapon. Its power and accuracy, yet high ink consumption make it tailored to veteran players. It shines in Rainmaker, where pin-point accuracy is great for attacking the enemy carrier and protecting your own. In terms of shortcomings, in Turf Wars it is not a very good idea to use, as ink consumption is too high to be good at turfing. Instead, try to splat the enemy so your allies can turf more quickly.

 Sheldon's Introduction

The Splattershot Pro was developed for more advanced users by the team behind the S2 Weapon Main Splattershot.png Splattershot! Use the S2 Weapon Sub Point Sensor.png Point Sensor to reveal opponents, and then blast them with the incredible precision and range of the main weapon! Its fire rate and ink efficiency aren't the best, but you can cover your teammates with an S2 Weapon Special Ink Storm.png Ink Storm! I'd recommend this weapon to players who have a lot of faith in their accuracy and positioning!
