hugging an Octoling!

Don't mind me, just posting the best weapon in the game.

>You will never _____ Marie

Agreed, Bucket Woomy is really powerful

buy pepsi for

I already have a lifetime supply, agent.

anyone else having problems with tagmo?
i got 215 ntags and got both keys
but i always get "transceive failed"
and i also tried using 2 older versions of the app

failing goldies cos the map is too big at high difficulty,tranporting eggs too long of a time .weapons dont really work well vs grillers,run out of ink fast. bucket doesnt do enough damage to kill tons of mobs at a time.flingza suffers running out of ink real fast and leaving you defenseless
ily 2 but squib as in like the baby inkling ?

...

fuck off already

don't bully him

...

brand new thread and he's already posting cropped child porn, you fuck off too
you are part of the problem

I've just recovered from a 3 day ban for posting one of his cropped images that he uses. I don't think it's fair but the break was nice I guess

POST /ink/ WOOMIES AND SPAGHETTIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These guys do all the real work that makes squid civilization happen.

...

why's she always in that retarded pose

What stopping them from just straight up taking over their society? The inklings are confirmed as a bunch of lazy, easily manipulable fucks

forced SpongeBob caveman meme

...

sit on the face of

Is Bomb Defense Up worth it?
I have been trying to get perfect gear with it since I got many drink tickets of it, but the stacking doesn't seem to be effective with many enemies' subs and specials.

1 sub is all you need, it doesn't scale that well otherwise

probably because they're enslaved

squid EAT jellys

They already have. Why else would the gym include a swimming pool full of water?

...

...

Squids eat anything. Everything. Even their own kind. Sometimes especially their own kind.

>"I think it's quite likely that other squid species would engage in the same kind of opportunistic cannibalism as Humboldt," says Staff. A study from October of last year found that some squid species exhibit an exceptionally high amount of cannibalism. For one species, the Gonatus onyx, 42 percent of all its prey came from cannibalism.

Jellies probably keep Squids placated with bread and Splatfests to prevent them to squidding out

3 subs or 1 main is enough to make you survive an additional ink jet splash hit as well as 2 direct splash bombs.

Here on time for today's milk delivery!

So has Salmon Run been overrun with shitters thanks to the Grizzco blaster?

It's not in rotation

Not anymore than usual. You drop out of profresh pretty quick if you can't handle it with normal weapons.

Profesh is the true elo hell. The difficulty jump from Overachiever to Profresh is probably a bit too high, so you get constant stream of people who can rank up but aren't actually good enough for Profesh. It's annoying.

Has anyone else felt that Professional got a bit of a nerf?
I am seeing some of the quota's being around 10 11 where they are usually a lot higher.

quota scales with exact point level, if you're Pro 10 it will be more lenient than Pro 300+

were you playing with randos?it also factors the other peoples difficulty levels

I always play with randoms so it might just be that.

Musselforge Fitness can suck my balls

It's a good map though.

It's a good map, I just hate playing Tower Control on it.

Not as bad as Kelp Dome

I do far better in Kelp Dome than I do in MF.

I have bad news for you.

2 for 1 special

don't bully

...

Anyone play with Bre?

This is bullying thread, see OP

How do I get good with the .96 gal.
Its crazy aim always seems to fail me.

I don't feel that Pearl would react like that.
I am sure she'd smugly say how damn right she is before posing and showing off her shinny dome.

How do I make Off The Hook always announce new maps?

Use the sprinkler constantly to build your meter and focus on deploying ink armor when needed.

You can't. They only announce if you just turn on the game or if Salmon Run has just become available.

...

What skills do you generally want to stack? All of them?

I've been doing a fuckton of Salmon Run and haven't leveled up to even 10 yet so I'm curious about the gear I've been getting and chunks and all that.

I've never done Salmon Run

Should I

Gear has a lesser effect if you use multiple. Stacking is only good if you want to put everything as one ability.
Usually going all round is pretty good, getting at least 1 main or 3 subs of Ink Saver Main and Ink Recovery are some go to things.
As for stacking one ability the best I know of are max Run Speed Up and Special Saver. But anything works really.
Also be mindful of the abilities that can only be found on main on some stuff, like Ninja Squid or Comeback.

Sure why not. What do you have to lose?

Whoevers art this is:
that lewd set you did was great, you know the one

Thanks. I scooped a special saver hat and shirt so I was stoked for that.

My pride if I lose

New map when!?

We just got one.

Special Saver up is a fun build.
Getting 3 mains or more saves you about 85% of your special upon death.
Getting that 15% is as easy as throwing a sub in spawn and I find it is more useful in the long run then Special Up. Unless you never die in ranked.

the other one

Maybe it will come out with the main weapon balance update?

>You will never be in the middle of a Squidcest

Might as well stop doing anything in life with that attitude

But people lose all the time. As long as you get to midway through round 2 and retain your pay grade its all okay.

The fact that I'm so bad with the Brella makes me want to cry.

Went from 45-5 win loss with my Carbon Roller to 20-30 with Brella

Just in turf war but if I went into rank with this I'd derank

Becoming one of my favourite squids

Don't treat it like a shooter, use it as a shotgun, senpai
It does 90 damage point blank, if they've taken any sort of damage before hand, it one shots.

>single player 43 more times till 1000%
It's not hard, it's just so damn boring

On the plus side, I found all the scrolls.
Some of them just weren't clicking until the 7th or 8th way through.

I'm very thorough and games like god of war made me really good at checking high and low for hidden items. With bad times included, I managed to find all but 1 scroll and 2 of those salmon token things on my first play through. What sucks is most of those 43 levels are blaster and roller ones that need doing and they tend to take the longest time for me than all the other weapons

I found this. Anyone care to translate?

>Drawn stuff
>child porn
>Cropped lewd images
>Somehow a menace to /ink/
No user, you are the problem.

>freelance salmon run
>95% guaranteed to lose on wave 1

>salmon run with /ink/
>win streak breaking 500+ rank and 10k points

Getting tired of this now. There's so many shit people today and the weapon selection is actually decent. I've just had a squiffer user letting 3 steelheads bombard us all from 3 different directions as he spam shots them with less than half charged shots. How is this allowed in profreshional?

Oh hey, someone saved my shitty art. Damn that pose is trash.

To be fair, a half charge is all you need to kill chum

I have poor aim and tracking in general. I can usually land the body shot. The follow up is what I struggle with. One reason I like the carbon. I dedicate the most to that initial swing so I don't have to worry about the follow up.

I can't correct after the first shot that well. Third shot I lined up for him but it was too late.

I don't see how there is any fairness in less than half shotting stealheads multiple times in profreshional, I was taking care of all the chum/fry with the flingza for them

full plz

Brella has a shield, user
If you can't hit that second shot, just pop the shield, realign your aiming, then shoot again

seconded

Yeah I know. There's always that "do I pop shield or do I just go for kill" that also adds hesitation. Going for shield is probably the safest option honestly.

I'll master this weapon I hope. My squid's too cute with it.

This comic is bad. Pearl has shown that she and Marina love the Squid Sisters. If someone is going to go out of their way to make Pearl look mean and Marie super cool and smart and never wrong, they could at least bother to do it right.

>tfw you kill multiple bosses relatively close to the basket but half your team doesn't even notice because they're off who-knows-where with their thumbs up their asses

*presses up on d-pad 10 times until they come that way*

I like the brella but it feels weird to me for some reason. It doesn't feel like it packs the proper punch it should, and the shield doesn't feel like it works as well as it was intended to.

Pearl is a bitch. There's no character to maintain beyond "arbitrarily mean" and "alleged rapper".

That command may as well not even exist, even on profreshional nobody ever fucking listens

"Alleged"

not worth transrating.
they all can be seen at loadout.ink

Anyone want to group up and do some profreshional salmon run?

Probably because it usually signals "hey come out to the end of this little peninsula to get your assfucked"
