Rapid Blaster Pro

The Rapid Blaster Pro is a main weapon in the Splatoon series.

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.

Appearance

The Rapid Blaster Pro is similar in appearance to the Rapid Blaster. However, the nozzle is longer, and there is a gray bar connecting the red panels at the bottom to the handle.

4.5.0	▲ The Main Power Up gear ability will now also increase the radius of explosions while equipped when using these main weapons. The above effect will be maxed out when 2.9 times the normal amount of gear ability is equipped. Each additional gear ability is worth .3 of the effect of the base gear ability.
4.9.0	▲ Increased damage dealt to the Rainmaker barrier by roughly 11%.

Quotes

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 Toxic Mist, your opponents will curse your very existence! The Ink Storm provides cover for your teammates, so I'd recommend this set for players who enjoy the technical aspects of battle!

Quotes

Sheldon's Introduction The Rapid Blaster Pro owes its incredible range to a chamber system that delays ink oxidization to the last possible moment! With that technology in hand, try catching your enemies in a little Toxic Mist before giving them a few inksplosions as a parting gift. And if anyone gets too close? Fire up the Ink Vac, and turn their own inkpower against them! This is a set that will make the tactically inclined player veeery happy.
