Ink Storm

The Inkstorm (アメフラシ, amefurashi^?, Lit, Anaspidea, literally "rain-maker") is a Special Weapon in Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3. When the object is thrown, a storm cloud of ink is created, and rains drops of ink down onto enemies and turf. After spawning, the cloud slowly moves around before disappearing.

Description[]

An Ink Storm being deployed and damaging the enemies.

The ink storm, when activated, can be thrown like a bomb. When thrown, it will travel until hitting the ground. After hitting the ground, it will burst open and let out a roar before it summons a cloud the same color as the thrower's ink. It then slowly moves in the direction it was summoned, spewing drops of ink as it goes.

Version history[]

Version	Adjustments
1.3.0	Increased radius of affect by roughly 13%. Area radius: 80 -> 90 units. Drops paint radius 18 -> 20.25 units Decreased points required to use the Ink Storm special for most main weapons it is paired with.
1.4.0	Increased damage dealt to opposing Ballers by the storm by roughly 150%: 1 -> 2.5 multiplier Fixed an issue causing the predicted range of the sub weapon to incorrectly display when readying an Ink Storm special while also equipped with either a Point Sensor or Toxic Mist sub weapon (Splattershot Pro or Rapid Blaster Pro). Fixed an issue causing the inking effect of an Ink Storm special to occur unnaturally when the storm intersected with a roof or other similar object in a stage.
2.0.0	Reduced the frequency with which it inks the ground by roughly 20%: 240 -> 192 drops.
4.5.0	Decreased area of effect radius by roughly 6%. Area radius: 90 -> 85 units. Drops paint radius: 20.25 -> 19.125 units.
