Hey guys, so I wanna make a good balanced build for the inkbrush. I got this so far but I would like some advice. Let me know if I should swap anything out or what would work better. Ty.

You don't need ab_inkres for inkbrush as your roll has ink res and that allows you to get out of enemy ink fast too. You also don't need ab_sru as that was just for all of the bomb specials in splatoon 2. It would be good to replace those with at least 1ab_ssu and someab_qrsince you are a slayer and will end up dying quite a bit. Other than that? You look pretty on point!

Alot of people say that I don’t need ink saver main but I’m not sure about that

Looks great!

True. I sometimes run out of ink while I’m in the front lines or fighting someone all the while I’m trying to avoid getting killed so..

#

I was thinking of using sub saver but I tried using it and it didn’t make much of a difference

#

makes sense

#

you could use wail for a refill if you have it since specials refill your tank

I know I’ve done it before :)

two subs of ab_qr is useless

#

you want at least one main and one sub or five subs of ab_qr

#

if you want ink savers then you can also run ab_lde but if you want both ink savers and ab_ssu use ab_cbk

its 0.75 seconds saved

#

thats nothing and is not worth it

#

you would be better running more swim speed

#

with quick respawn it lets you take more risks and play more aggro

#

a second less isnt going to help with that

#

also plus you can easily get ~2 more seconds by removing not needed abilities

#

ab_ism can be there if your want it, but ive already suggested ways to have it

#

mainly ab_cbk

Jesus.. 4 of qr? Is that even worth it? Like truly

#

With 4 ab_qr It only saves you 1 second

#

Am I getting this right lol

south salmon
#

5 subs

#

5 subs saves you ~2 seconds

#

I’ll see what I’ll do

south salmon
#

you dont have to run ab_qr if you dont want to

Yeah it takes up too many chunks imo

There’s alot of debate and uncertainty around the gear for the inkbrush. However we all know that ninja squid, stealth jump and swim speed are a must lmaoo

The main thing is drop ism for ssu or iss

#

inkres is still good for swimming cause getting caught by enemy ink is never fun and sru while only affecting subs is still an option given bomb combos and stuff like machine fizzy spam still exists

Yeah I think I should keep both of those tbh. I’m gonna experiment with sub saver main and see how it does

#

The whole point of the inkbrush is to be in the front lines and have an advantage in enemy ink

#

And flanking ofc

#

Specially with ns

#

Also its like the splotches of ink thatre the same reason mpu dmg was a pain to deal with ie prolly wont notice in battle

#

I would wanna have two subs of ink resistance, but is one enough or?

#

I coincidentally got two ink savers subs and another swim speed in my build while in turf lol. I need super jump but I’d be left without sub resistance up so I’d have to sacrifice one of the two ink resistance subs I have

chrome rampart
#

1-2 subs both work

#

Can anyone tell me the Swim speed limit/cap when wearing Ninja Squid? If there is one?
