Tri-Slosher

The Tri-Slosher is a main weapon in Splatoon and Splatoon 2.

It is a slosher-type weapon that is separated into three sections and is similar in appearance as a Japanese brush washer bucket. As its appearance implies, it can throw in three different directions. It covers a straight line forward and two splotches to the side. The range is short compared to other sloshers.

The weapon consumes 6% of the ink tank capacity with each slosh, allowing players to slosh sixteen times before needing to refill. Each slosh does enough damage to splat opponents in two hits.
