Finally I can get back into this game.
Even the new Stingray couldn't make me like the old version.

When is the salmon run special event today? And where could I find that in the switch online app? I tried looking but I couldn't find a mention of Salmon Run anywhere.

Having recently picked up this weapon, this excites me and the sequins are fabulous. Any idea if there's gonna be a level requirement or if I'm gonna be able to squirt some squids with my fabulous chain gun?

Dr Cheeto: Mar 2, 2013; Wretched Harp

There's absolutely going to be a level requirement, the first Splatling a new player unlocks is still gonna be the regular Heavy Splatling.

Datamine says you need to be level 12 and have 9600 coins and that hasn't been wrong yet with that kind of information

So the bubbles from Bubble Blower get a lot stronger if you stack lots of special power up. Their size, inking radius, and damage radius increases. Though my gear setups could only get up to 48 points at the most.

And in case you're curious about some other specials, I decided to see Tenta Missiles and Splashdown in action. (imo, SPU is really not worth it for them.)

This looks like my poo poo. I could have a lot of fun holding down stuff in ranked with a splash wall.

Those radii are much bigger. The real issue is are you going to get more squids in your attack with that bonus? (No, you are not.)

That bigass splashdown probably would but having get 48 chunks for it likely isn't worth it

I kinda wish it made the bubbles take more damage to burst, since I often just use them to block and distract rather than kill.

I'd say the bubble blower is definitely worth considering since you have 3 of the things you can pop. Definitely not worth stacking that much for Tentas or Splashdown, though.

That's the real issue here. While a bigger radius in Tentas and Splashdown would be nice to have, most likely, there are better abilities to have.

Actually you will.

That line is just the kill zone, the splash damage zones increase too.

For Splashdown, only the 180 and 70 damage radii get the increase. The 55 damage radius is fixed.

Datamined info about that, it's not a big spoiler but if you want to be surprised

there's Grizzco series of weapons, Charger, Blaster, Roller and Brella. They have their own models but I don't know about their stats.

I assume the joke will be that Mr. Grizz's "personal weapon" is the splatling deco that's coming out and he's just embarassed to have a bedazzled gun.
