Bomb Range Up is an ability in Splatoon.

Bomb Range Up increases the velocity of most throwable sub weapons, allowing players to throw them up to 50% farther.

There is no brand that modifies the likelihood of rolling Bomb Range Up as a sub-ability.

Data

This ability does affect Disruptors, Burst Bombs, Point Sensors, Splat Bombs, and Suction Bombs.

This ability does not affect Seekers, Splash Walls, Squid Beakons, and Sprinklers.

Tactics

Bomb Range Up increases the speed of the affected projectiles, making it easier to hit fast-moving opponents even at closer ranges with Burst Bombs, Disruptors, and Point Sensors.

Players can jump, or build up momentum before throwing by swimming in squid form, to increase throwing distance even more. The effectively increased range is visible in the dashed arc.
