Yeah, I was on a bad streak in rainmaker earlier today and decided I was going to brain-dead a bloblobber with MPU for a few rounds. It's incredibly oppressive when you just spam blobs into the fray.

Oh, alright. I was confused because you said Inklings. So Octos will be available for people w/o the dlc for Splatfest?

God I hope I can get moved in and settled enough to do some of the Splatfest on Saturday. Not expecting to, but I can hope. Gotta fight for the Villains.

Also uhh, since a lot of you in the discord are also in the thread. Figured I should say something. Considered mentioning there, but gently caress it. I read this more than the discord.

I haven't started yet, but I will be soon. I'm gonna start transitioning soon, with the HRT and all that. You're all cool and rad tho, so I figure there won't be any issues. :3:

Mini Splatling
-Maximum firing time increase from Main Power Up increased from 30% to 35%. (Maximum possible firing time increased from 1.566~ seconds to 1.6166~ seconds. Or if you really care about exact numbers, 94/60ths of a second to 97/60ths of a second.)
--Increased the effect of Main Power Up when using smaller amounts.

Undercover Brella
-Minimum shield regeneration time from Main Power Up decreased from 33% to 44%. (Time for the shield to regenerate reduced from 3 seconds to 2.5 seconds.)
--Increased the effect of Main Power Up when using smaller amounts.

Hydra Splatling
-When not fully charged, it will now take 5 subs of Main Power Up instead of 3 subs to reach 33.3 damage.
--Main Power Up's effect on full charge damage is not affected at all.

Ballpoint Splatling
-Run Speed Up's effect on the weapon is reduced.
-It will now take 5 subs of Main Power Up instead of 3 subs to reach 33.3 damage.

Splat Dualies
-It will now take 2 mains and 4 subs of Main Power Up instead of 2 mains to reach 33.3 damage.

Sub-weapons

Fizzy Bomb
-Reduced painting radius of the 2nd explosion by 15%.
-Reduced painting radius of the 3rd explosion by 21%.
(Paint radius of explosions is reduced from 30/40/48 to 30/34/38)

Torpedo:
-Ink cost increased from 60% to 65%.
-Damage from the smaller explosions reduced from 18 to 12.
--Smaller explosion damage against bubbles from Bubble Blower increased by 50% (This makes it so that Torpedo splashes deal the same amount of damage to bubbles pre-patch, essentially making it so that nothing changed there.)

-Reduced duration of bubbles from 18 seconds to 12 seconds.

Special Point Costs

Bloblobber Deco: 180 to 190

Oh and 4.3.1 is hitting December 18th/19th. Patch Notes.

Glad to see Fizzy Bomb and Torpedo getting nerfed, they were popping up everywhere. Bloblobber only having an increase in points to special is a little disconcerting, though.

That change to the Bubble Blower seems pretty big. I didn't realize how long they could linger.

e: I wonder if dash pads will make this shifty station feel like Quake 3's Longest Yard...
