the Heavy Edit Splatling! as all splatlings are, 35 per shot, with the gimmick being it fires faster when you fully charge the second ring. kinda like the Hydra's damage bonus, but a fire rate bonus instead. it's bursts aren't as impressive as the Hydra, but it certainly trades that for more consistency. i think i would also call it a more consistent Ballpoint, and Ballpoint's already pretty good, all things considered.

#video #splat series #splatoon 3 #9/5/23 #with both rings it lets out 2100 damage over 3 seconds.#the Hydra's 3600 is over 4 seconds. so 3 seconds of the Hydra is 2700. it's a pretty respectable sum for the HES.#the rub is that if you just miss the full charge... Hydra does 2240 over just less than four seconds. HUGE drop.#while the HES does a more respectable 2065 over the same timeframe! not to mention the HES charges up a smidge faster.#the ink usage is also much in favour of the HES: 20% tank for full charge to the Hydra's 35% tank.#Heavy Splatling is close- 22.5% per tank- but it has much less damage. like 1200 or so.#that said it charges up in like a second compared to the two seconds those beefy fellas have to take.#back to the ballpoint: the fast firing short range mode has the same DPS #same fire rate and damage will do that. but again: short range mode.#the longer mode fires a bit slower but it does fire further than the HES hopes too.#so it's more like it tries to combine the two firing modes.
