The only Blaster I'd ever willingly lay my hands on is they Rapid Blaster. Anyone know what sub and special it comes with? Are the stats different?
My question exactly. I think the pro version is a whole new weapon, but we really need to know that sub/special combo
@GoldenGamer88 Sub is Toxic Mist and Special is Ink Storm.
@Elanczewski Sub meh, special yay! Thanks for the info, anyway.
@EverythingAmiibo @GoldenGamer88 The RBP has higher range and a bigger explosion than the RB, but has a slower fire rate and takes more ink up.
Though I don't main Blasters this will be a blast to try out!
@Nintendoer So it's a Rapid Blaster without the rapid part. Got it.
@Nintendoer Sounds good to me, prob gonna give it a shot or two first thing tomorrow morning.
@MetaRyan It's still faster than regular Blasters, but yeah, it is a lot less rapid.
Is it modeled after... classic Donkey Kong girders?
@GoldenGamer88 Toxic mist is amazing.
It looks like it's been brought to us by Lego.
This is a funny way to spell bamboozler...
Weird, I already have it on Splatoon 1
Aw man! Why are they only releasing these crappy weapons(I'm aware that this is a subjective matter and that others are using these weapons, but I' getting tired of this)?
I want more version of shooter weapons like the N-Zap, Jet Squelcher and Dualie Squelcher!
tower control even more frustrating now
