I did not know that. Thank you.@Avatar K don't quint-post, it clutters the entire thread. Pressing the reply button while you're editing an existing reply post put the quote in after your response mods consolidate this
The heavy splatling typically should not be pushing alone. It usually provides supporting fire to a push led by teammates, zoning or splatting enemies or inking ground from afar.Ah, I see. Thanks, mate.
Now that I have the loadout down (at least theoretically), I have a new question:
How do you go on offense with this weapon? I can defend well enough, especially when I get the height advantage, but I'm not sure what to do when my team gets pushed out of center and we have to push back. This has happened before, and I feel like I can't do much when it does, so any advice would be nice.
most if not all weapons don't do their max/consistent damage when at their max range, and def up makes that damage even less.I am not sure swim speed up is very beneficial because the heavily splatling does not swim as much. However, that ability allows the heavy splatling to escape better. I think damage up would be better than defense up because the heavy splatling should not be veery close to enemy inklings.
If a player will not be taking much damage, then they should be focussing on things besides defense.most if not all weapons don't do their max/consistent damage when at their max range, and def up makes that damage even less.
3 main Defense Ups do make the Heavy Splatling require an extra shot to splat, so I'd say equip it with at least 2 Damage Up subs or at least 1 mainI am not sure swim speed up is very beneficial because the heavily splatling does not swim as much.

I was talking about using defense up on the heavy splatling. Using defense up against it would be fine.3 main Defense Ups do make the Heavy Splatling require an extra shot to splat, so I'd say equip it with at least 2 Damage Up subs or at least 1 main
Well, having some Defense Ups is helpful in almost any case (partly because you never know when you'll run into .52 Gals and the like)I was talking about using defense up on the heavy splatling. Using defense up against it would be fine.
My ideal heavy splatling abilities includes ink saver (main), to allow the weapon to shoot more, even though it does not really use that much ink and damage up, to splat enemies faster. However, unlike some weapons, especially long range ones, the heavy splatling is not heavily dependent on abilities, such as ink saver main on the charger weapons or damage up, ninja squid, and defense up on all the blasters but the rapid blaster (deco).
Don't think it's worth it to run damage ups specifically to counter 3x defense up as that's a pretty uncommon sight but that's just me. If you're gonna do that you could use enough to cap it's damage per shot at 33.3, that way if an enemy with no defense up has any damage whatsoever it kills as fast as the Sploosh o matic when it doesn't miss every other shot.3 main Defense Ups do make the Heavy Splatling require an extra shot to splat, so I'd say equip it with at least 2 Damage Up subs or at least 1 main
I guess I'm just getting the short end of the stick, then. I feel like 1/3 enemies I fight I have to hit 5 times (I do count hit sounds), and I use 2 Damage Up subs.Don't think it's worth it to run damage ups specifically to counter 3x defense up as that's a pretty uncommon sight but that's just me.

It's the same as the Dual Squelcher, but I don't remember the exact number (accordint to Inkipedia it should be 28). Aside of that, it shoots as fast as an Aerospray and with full charge it has the range of the Jet SquelcherDo you know the damage per hit of the heavy splatling? All its stats would be nice as well.
I actually don't think charging affects its range, unlike how it does with Chargers. The rest of the information, though, I agree with.It's the same as the Dual Squelcher, but I don't remember the exact number (accordint to Inkipedia it should be 28).

Actually it does, although I'm not sure if it requires the full charge to reach its max. If you tap the trigger to fire one bullet it won't go very far, but if you charge the shots it'll travel a larger distanceI actually don't think charging affects its range, unlike how it does with Chargers. The rest of the information, though, I agree with.
No, it does affect the range up to a point. You need one full ring of charge to reach full range; it's only the second ring of charge that doesn't affect it.I actually don't think charging affects its range, unlike how it does with Chargers. The rest of the information, though, I agree with.
A post I saw agreed with you, but I cannot say for sure.No, it does affect the range up to a point. You need one full ring of charge to reach full range; it's only the second ring of charge that doesn't affect it.
I guess tomorrow's project for me will be testing this. I'll have a video of this posted here tomorrow on it.No, it does affect the range up to a point. You need one full ring of charge to reach full range; it's only the second ring of charge that doesn't affect it.
I tried it out, but I'm not quite sure if it does reach its max range with one ring. The shot spread is too wide to get a proper measurement, but using the reticle as a fixed point it should only require one ringI guess tomorrow's project for me will be testing this.
