The October Salmon gear is out. Is it possible to get respawn punisher on it?

@Dev That's really weird and unlike Nintendo. I mean, they designed logos and everything. Maybe the update just went out too soon so players who logged in during a certain time frame got the info? No matter the reason, I'm looking forward to seeing how this develops in the coming days.

@xPH03N1Xx86 Been playing pretty much every Salmon Run session since launch and I don't think you can get gear-exclusive abilities (Respawn Punisher, Ninja Squid) on Grizzco-branded gear, at least I have no recollection of ever getting such an ability.

@xPH03N1Xx86 Pretty sure it can have any ability available to shirts, Respawn Punisher included. Scratch that, loadout.ink says it can't.

Speaking of, I wonder if new monthly gear (Juice Parka, by the way - shoes when?) brings all the best players out, 'cause I feel like my teammates have been unusually good today. Although it also helps that this is a pretty nice weapon set (Sploosh-o-matic, Splat Dualies, Slosher and Mini Splatling). In any case, I got 90 golden eggs in a game today, which I think is a new record for me, and my rank meter was at 180 Profreshional by the second superbonus. Also survived a three-player game with 62 golden eggs.

@Zyrac @GoldenGamer88 Thanks, I can't recall getting them either but I'll keep trying and see what I find.

@Tsurii I think it was two days ago? Won every Salmon Run I played

@Tsurii It depends on the weapon/stage combo for me...

@Tsurii There was one recently with L3 Nozzlenose, H3 Nozzlenose, .56 Gal, and .96 Gal.

That was about as fun as you can imagine.

Never've gotten my rank above 130 Profreshional. But today's been a rather good session for me as well. Only lost like two or three games and that always in the third wave so my rank wasn't affected. I think it largely comes down to how viable each weapon is in different situation. Close quarters? I'd say all four are viable for that in Salmon Run. Plus, with the Sploosh, Dualies and Slosher, aim isn't as important as well.

Also, now that we're talking about Salmon Run, lemme just go on a bit of a rant here. First of all, I freakin hate Grillers. No, not the Grillers themselves. These little Smallfry that spawn from them nonstop, these are so irritating and hard to battle against with a Chargers and such. Secondly, third wave, profreshional rank, normal tide, find that Goldie and get 15 eggs! It may just be my personal experience but pulling that off is near impossible. I think it comes down to one person following the Goldie and shooting eggs out of it while the others collect the eggs. In reality, my experience is reversed in that I collect as many eggs as possible while the others follow the Goldie and even my "This Way!"s aren't heard.

@GoldenGamer88 I lose to Grillers almost every freaking time. Might be because they demand particularly good teamwork. For one thing, if you're the guy with the charger there ought to be someone else holding off the Smallfries for you, but you just can't trust randoms to do that.

Goldies are usually okay for me though. The way a good Goldie round usually goes is, someone finds the Goldie and calls the others over, everyone shoots it for a bit, and we collect most or all of the eggs before we start popping gushers again. You're in trouble if an unwise teammate starts popping them willy-nilly though. If anyone doesn't know, the higher the gusher goes the closer it is to the Goldie.

@Zyrac Oh, I did not know that. Mr. Grizz probably says so but his hints are always gone before I can ever finish them. So thank you, I'll take that to heart next time Find the Goldie's coming up.

@GoldenGamer88 Unfortunately Mr. Grizz's hint about it is confusingly worded, so a lot of people don't understand this.

@BLP_Software Thanks for the offer, but I think I'm gonna keep playing Ranked right now. I dropped out of S+ Tower Control and I need to fix that...

@Zyrac Thank you for the info regarding the gusher, I had no idea. His hint always talked about light but I could never see a difference

So, the latest Japanese splatfest was a mistake... If I had to guess, that was probably supposed to be a splatfest for a later date, and they accidentally revealed it this month.

The problem with Goldie rounds is the amount of luck needed. Sometimes you find the Goldie right away and rack up the needed eggs with ease (be sure to defend them from the incoming Snatchers), other times you end up popping every single valve trying to discern it's location and end up to your armpits in Salmonids. The hints given by the geysers are vague, pretty much on the level of Vermilion City's gym. Big geyser means Goldie is in an adjacent gusher, short means it isn't. Unfortunately, there are a LOT of gushers counting as adjacent.

Grillers are definitely very hard, and to add insult to injury you can't get much eggs from them. And it may just be me, but this round almost always comes as the first for me. Oh, and don't try to cheese them by hiding on Lost Outpost's walls, because the Smallfry popping from the craft somehow float up and wreck you instantly.

Alone, a force. Together, a force of nature.

We are sorry for the accidental Splatfest. A group of Ninja Squids have been dispatched to deal with the employee who made the mistake in question. Have a fine day!

Rocking an Ink Resistance Juice Parka from Mr. Grizz.

Fresh as fresh goes. Has anyone had luck in Salmon Run?

@BLP_Software Marooner's Bay is my favorite. Spawning Grounds is my least favorite due to the grid paths and the entire area below that, especially during high tide.

@Hieronymus-E Got one with Bomb Defense Up, which is absolutely useless to me. Not fond of Ink Resistance Up, though I've soon got enough chunks to make a perfect gear piece (curse your decision of having SquidForce instead of Krak-On, Splash Mob or Tentatek sponsor Splatfests, Nintendo!). I'm hoping to get one with Swim Speed Up to use it for my Mobility Set.

@GoldenGamer88 I don't like Marooners Bay, mostly because my experiences involve that coastal area at low tide, with Steel Eels, Stingers and Flyfish, or high tide with Grillers/Flyfish.
