Tri-Slosher

From Inkipedia, the Splatoon wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

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.

Recommended abilities

Ability Purpose
S2 Ability Ink Saver (Main).png Ink Saver (Main) Allows to fling more shots of ink
S2 Ability Ink Saver (Sub).png Ink Saver (Sub) Allows to save ink while throwing Burst Bombs
S2 Ability Ink Recovery Up.png Ink Recovery Up Decreases time to refill

Use

  • The Tri-Slosher has the fastest sloshing time of any slosher and has enough damage to splat opponents in 2 hits
    • The fast hits can get weapons with slow firing rates (Such as the Jet Squelcher) without getting splatted.
      • Weapons with slow firing rates but high damage (Such as the .96 Gal) can get a Tri-Slosher but with the fast firing, it could end in both players splatting each other
  • It does well when it goes on the offense. Its high damage and fast fire rate is great against other weapons
  • Ink Armor helps with support on the team and could help in a battle against others
  • Burst Bombs helps to deal damage to get to a close 1 hit splat on an Opponent.
  • S2 Ability Ink Saver (Main).png Ink Saver (Main), S2 Ability Ink Saver (Sub).png Ink Saver (Sub), S2 Ability Ink Recovery Up.png Ink Recovery Up can help reduce the chance of running out of ink during a confrontation.
  • Its Three way shot is useful for getting opponents who are on the side of the weapon and for those who don't have the greatest accuracy
    • This is also great for having to deal with opponents who move to the side (Such as N-Zaps who have great mobility) during a battle or with Dualies dodge rolling

Countermeasures

  • The Tri-Slosher uses up a lot of ink when firing so there is more of a chance to run out of ink in a confrontation.
    • Throwing a Burst Bomb doesn't mind but for people who spam burst bombs during a battle have a better chance of running out of ink during a battle.
    • The normal Slosher uses more ink per swing but since the Tri-Slosher is faster, Tri-Sloshers run out of ink quicker than regular sloshers
    • The Recommended Abilities can help reduce the chance of running out of ink in a confrontion
  • The Tri-Slosher also has less range than other sloshers
    • This can get the user splatted when up against long range weapons like the Splattershot Pro and Heavy Splatling
    • The normal Slosher will beat the Tri-Slosher at range which will cause the Tri-Slosher user to get splatted

Quotes

 Sheldon's Introduction

The Tri-Slosher is a Slosher-type weapon that lobs ink in three directions in front of you at once! Since the ink is being split in three, it does reduce the attack power slightly, but if you follow up with a S2 Weapon Sub Burst Bomb.png Burst Bomb, you're good to go! All that's left is to push forward with the S2 Weapon Special Ink Armor.png Ink Armor! Recommended for those who really love to aggressively splat their opponents.
