Tenta Brella

The Tenta Brella is a main weapon in Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3.

The Tenta Brella functions similarly to the standard Splat Brella but the shield is much larger and more durable. This means it can block more shots and leave a wider ink trail when launched.

Appearance

The Tenta Brella has a black handle that is shaped like a walking stick. The canopy is rectangular and has two dark green sections and two sections that change color to match the user's ink. In the center of the canopy is a black muzzle that connects to four red bars, each one supporting one of the canopy's corners. Below the muzzle is a white Sorella logo and some white warning labels.

The Tenta Brella was announced during a Nintendo Direct on 13 September 2017. It was released on 30 September 2017 at 02:00 UTC.^[1] It comes with Squid Beakons and Bubble Blower.^[2] In Salmon Run, the umbrella's shield breaks immediately after making contact with a Steel Eel.

It appears in two Octo Expansion stations:

I04 Can't Touch This Station
J04 Footloose Station

Data

The Tenta Brella is a heavyweight weapon.
The matchmaking range is 150. 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 Tenta Brella's canopy has 700 HP.
- Brella canopies have different incoming damage multipliers for each weapon type.
The canopy takes 0.75 seconds to open.
The canopy does 30 damage to opponents on contact.
The canopy takes 1.75 seconds to be launched, and 5.67 seconds to return.
- The launched canopy initially travels at a speed of 0.8 units per frame. It remains on the stage for 6 seconds.
- After being launched, incoming damage to the canopy is multiplied by 0.6.
Each shot consumes 11% of the ink tank's capacity, allowing the player to fire 9 shots before needing to refill the ink supply.
- Holding long enough after firing to release the canopy uses 30% of the ink tank.
- So, 41% of the ink tank is used in total to release the canopy.
After firing, there is a 1.17 second cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.

- The cooldown after holding open but not releasing the canopy is 0.5 seconds.
- The cooldown after releasing the canopy is 2 seconds.
When initially firing the weapon in humanoid form, the shot takes 10 frames to come out.
- When firing from swim form, the shot takes 20 frames to come out.
When firing continuously, it fires a round of pellets every 52 frames.
The interval between firing and when the player is able to enter swim form or use a sub weapon is 40 frames.
When firing while moving, the player's movement speed is set to 0.5 units per frame. While holding the brella open, the player's movement speed is set to 0.4 units per frame.
The Tenta Brella fires 13 projectiles per shot. Each projectile deals 17 damage. A maximum of 7 projectiles per shot will damage the opponent, so the maximum possible damage per shot is 119.
The Tenta Brella does not experience damage falloff.
Shots can deviate 7 degrees horizontally and 4.5 degrees vertically.
Shots initially travel straight at a rate of 24 units per frame for 4 frames. Shots travel straight for 96 distance units.
- After that, the projectile's velocity is set to 23.135 units if the projectile's velocity is not already lower than the listed value, and decreases further as it falls to the ground.

Data

The Tenta Brella is a heavyweight weapon.
The matchmaking range is 15. 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 Tenta Brella has a canopy with 700 HP, and regenerates 0.5 HP per frame (30 HP per second) when the canopy is not active and not destroyed.
- Brella canopies have different incoming damage multipliers for each weapon type.
The canopy takes 45 frames to open (0.75 seconds).
The canopy does 30 damage on contact with a cooldown of 30 frames.
The canopy takes 105 frames to launch (1.75 seconds) and 5.67 seconds to regenerate.
- The canopy initially travels at a speed of about 0.077 units per frame, and remains onstage for 6 seconds. During this time, all damage to the shield is multiplied by 0.6.

Ink consumption is 11% per shot, allowing the user to fire 9 times with a full ink tank.
Once the canopy is fully open, it consumes 60% of the ink tank per second, requiring 30% of the tank to release.
After firing, there is a 70 frame (1.17 second) cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
- After holding but not releasing the canopy, there is a 30 frame (0.5 second) cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
- After releasing the canopy, there is a 120 frame (2 second) cooldown before the ink tank starts refilling.
When firing from humanoid form, the first shot takes 10 frames to come out. When firing from swim form, the first shot takes 20 frames to come out.

The time between consecutive shots is 52 frames.

The time between firing the weapon and being able to use a sub or enter swim form is 40 frames.

The movement speed while firing is 0.05 units per frame.
The movement speed while shielding is 0.04 units per frame.
Each pellet has a base damage of 17.

Pellets do not lose damage if they are in the air too long.
The maximum damage that can be dealt to a single target per shot is 119.
- It takes 7 pellets at 17 damage to deal 119 damage.

The centermost pellet hitbox has a radius of 0.2 units.
All other pellets' hitboxes have a radius of 0.1 units.

The Tenta Brella fires 13 pellets per shot.
Pellets fly straight at 2.4 units per frame for 4 frames, covering a distance of 9.6 units.
- After that, the speed of the pellets is set to 2.3135 units per frame if it is not already lower than the listed value, and they lose 36% of their speed every frame (including the first frame after they stop traveling straight). Once the velocity decreases below a certain threshold, they will begin to be slowed less and fall faster.
The effective range is about 13.47 units.
- This number may vary at different firing angles.
