 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.

Data

  • The Splattershot Pro is a middleweight weapon.
  • The ink consumption of 2% allows players to fire 50 shots before needing to refill the ink supply.
  • When initially firing the weapon in humanoid form, the first shot takes 3 frames to come out.
    • When firing from squid or octopus form, the first shot takes 8 frames to come out.
  • When firing continuously, it has a fire rate of 8 frames between shots (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.
  • If a shot is in the air for more than 7 frames after being fired, it loses 1.62 damage per frame until it reaches 21 damage at frame 20.
  • Shots have 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 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%.
  • When not 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 48 frames to reach maximum accuracy. (78 after shooting while jumping.)
  • Shots initially travel at a rate of 38.33333 units per frame for 3 frames, having an effective range of 114.99999 units.
    • After that, the shot's velocity is set to 22.698 units if it is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it falls to the ground.
  • 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 8 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 11 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.
  • If no ink droplets have occurred within 11 units of the player for 2 shots, the next shot the player makes will force a paint droplet to appear at the player's feet.

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!
