Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction What do you get when you cross a pro weapon with top gear brand Forge? It's the Forge Splattershot Pro! Its stats haven't changed, but the Point Sensor and Inkzooka open up new tactical potential! Like the Splattershot Pro, it's not the easiest weapon to handle, so try it out if you've got what it takes!

The Forge Splattershot Pro was released on 2 September 2017 at 02:00 UTC.

The Forge Splattershot Pro makes use of the same main weapon as Splattershot Pro: it is a long-range, high damage shooter with high ink consumption. It comes with the Suction Bomb and Bubble Blower.

Data

• The Forge Splattershot Pro is a middleweight weapon.
• The matchmaking range is 170. The game's matchmaking system looks at a team's average matchmaking range value, and matches them against a team with a similar average.
• The ink consumption of 2% and ink tank capacity of 100% allows players to fire 50 shots before needing to refill the ink supply.
  • This stat can be changed with Ink Saver (Main).
• When initially firing the weapon in humanoid form, the first shot takes 3 frames to come out.
• When firing from swim form, the first shot takes 11 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 8 frames (7.5 shots per second).
• When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.55 units per frame.
• After firing, there is a 20 frame cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
• Each shot has a base damage of 42.
• If a shot is in the air for more than 7 frames after being fired, it loses 1.3125 damage per frame until it reaches 21 damage at frame 23.
• The bullet hitbox has a radius of 2 units.
• The angle its shots can deviate while on the ground is 2.7 degrees.
• The angle its shots can deviate while in the air is 6 degrees.
• The outer reticle immediately expands after jumping. After 25 frames, the outer reticle will start shrinking, and will finish shrinking after 70 frames.
• The Forge Splattershot Pro starts off having a 1% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle.
  • This chance increases by 1% per shot, and maximizes at a 25% chance to shoot towards the outer reticle, meaning that it takes 24 shots to reach minimum accuracy.
• When jumping, the chance to shoot towards the outer reticle instead of the inner reticle is immediately set to 40%.
• Accuracy starts recovering 8 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 56 frames to reach maximum accuracy. (86 after shooting while jumping.)
• Shots initially travel straight at a rate of 38.33333 units per frame for 3 frames. Shots travel straight for 114.99999 distance units.
  • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 22.698 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it travels.
• Ink droplets occur every 88 units.
• The frequency at which ink drips from a shot occurs at a rate of 2 droplets per shot.
• There are a total of 6 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 8 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 units.
• All other ink droplets have a radius of 12.5 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.

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The Forge Splattershot Pro is a custom Splattershot Pro weapon set put together by the gear brand Forge! The main weapon functions identically to the Splattershot Pro, but you can keep opponents at arm's length with Suction Bombs! And the Bubble Blower special is the perfect complement to the main weapon's long range! It's not the easiest set to use, but if you master it, you'll be unstoppable!

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction If the Splattershot Pro is for pro Splattershot users, I guess the Forge Splattershot Pro is for pro Splattershot users who also rock Forge-brand gear! It's a mouthful, but when this set is firing on all cylinders, it does the talking for you. The main weapon is functionally identical to the base Splattershot Pro, but a Suction Bomb a day keeps the enemies away! Or, well, as many Suction Bombs as you can muster. And while the Booyah Bomb special might feel like too many bombs, when you get a chance to drop one, you'll realize that there's no such thing as too many bombs! This set isn't necessarily balanced for a beginner, but if you can handle it, few opponents will be able to handle YOU!

“

Happy Turkey Day! SRL Ballistics again, showing off the Forge Splattershot Pro - a special collab with the brand Forge. This setup lets you control the action with Suction Bombs and Booyah Bombs... and look good doing it! We think Splattershot Pro mains will be especially thankful.

Trivia

• In Splatoon 2, the Forge Splattershot Pro was the first weapon to debut the Bubble Blower special weapon.

Etymology

Forge Splattershot Pro is a combination of Splatter (as well as Splat), Shot and the shortened form of Professional. It has the Forge brand name as a prefix to differentiate it from the Splattershot Pro. It also denotes that the weapon is a collaboration with Forge.

Its Japanese name, プライムシューターコラボ puraimu shūtā korabo, means "Prime Shooter Collab". The abbreviated suffix Collab denotes it is a collaboration. However, unlike the English name, it doesn't specify the brand Forge.
