Dapple Dualies Nouveau

The Dapple Dualies Nouveau are a main weapon in Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3. They are the Nouveau branded version of the Dapple Dualies.

Compared to the Splat Dualies, this weapon lets the player perform quicker dodge rolls and inflict more damage, but it has a shorter range and a shorter roll distance to offset its effectiveness in close quarters.

The Dapple Dualies deal enough damage to splat opponents in three hits, unlike the Splat Dualies, Dark Tetra Dualies, and Dualie Squelchers which need to land four hits to splat an enemy. In the post-roll state, the weapon's firing rate is 20% faster than normal, and its accuracy is improved as well.

Appearance

The Dapple Dualies Nouveau share their builds with the Dapple Dualies. However, the Dapple Dualies Nouveau are mainly dark blue and have a sticker bearing the Nouveau logo on the top of each dualie.

• When firing from swim form, the first shot takes 12 frames to come out.
• The interval between firing and when the player is able to enter swim form or use a sub weapon is 4 frames.
• When firing continuously, it shoots a bullet every 5 frames (12 shots per second).
• When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.8 units per frame.
• After firing, there is a 20 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.

• When jumping, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle is immediately set to 40%.
• Accuracy starts recovering 5 frames after the player stops shooting. The chance to shoot towards the outer reticle decreases by 0.5% per frame, if the chance is not already at the minimum, meaning that it takes 75 frames to reach maximum accuracy.

  • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 17.635 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it travels.
• Ink droplets occur every 110 units.
• The frequency at which ink drips from a shot occurs at a rate of 1 droplets per shot.
• There are a total of 5 different droplet patterns that can be created while firing this weapon.
• Droplets that occur within 11 units of the player have a radius of 18 units, and a width of 10 units.
  • These droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1.2 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.4 if they fell from a height below 30 units.
• Droplets that occur when they travel past 200 units of the player have a radius of 16.5 units.
• All other ink droplets have a radius of 13.5 units.
• Droplets that are far from the player and all other droplets have their radius multiplied by a value ranging from 1 if they fell from a height above 100 units to 1.2 if they fell from a height below 30 units.

Rolling

  • This stat can be changed with Ink Saver (Main).
• The player can roll 2 times without interruption. After this, there is a delay before the player can roll again.

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The trouble with the Dapple Dualies Nouveau is that you'll be whizzing through the stage so fast with them that no one will be able to appreciate their cool design! As weapons, though, they're pretty good. Just like the Dapple Dualies you know and love already. But now equipped with the Torpedo sub to distract and annoy your enemies! And for those times when foes are bunching up and you need something with more oomph, kick the Reefslider into gear and splat 'em all at once. If you're good at reading the map and making your own plan of attack, this loadout is a great choice!

“

And we're not done! Check out the Dapple Dualies Nouveau, a reimagining of the Dualies you know and love. Paired with the Torpedo sub and Reefslider special, this set is for folks who crave drama and want to get right in the middle of the action. Like us!

Trivia

• There are toothbrushes on the ends of the guns, likely referencing the fact that toothbrushes are used to make realistic splatter marks known as "dapples" on paintings.
• The sticker used for the Dapple Dualies Nouveau's icon is different in the games it appears in. In Splatoon 2, the sticker used for the icon is unique, while in Splatoon 3, it uses the same sticker as the other Nouveau-branded weapons.
• Unlike most weapons in the game, whose locker stickers are the same size between the different kit variations, the Dapple Dualies Nouveau locker sticker is a different size from the locker sticker for the Dapple Dualies. It is notably larger than the unbranded variant's sticker.
