  • ▲ Increased the maximum possible ink saved: 25% → 35%

Trivia

  • Without refilling the player's ink tank, prior to version 2.6.0, players could only throw a single Splat Bomb, Suction Bomb or Sprinkler, no matter how much Ink Saver (Sub) was used. However, after version 2.6.0, it became possible to throw two of these sub weapons with 35 APs (Main ×2 + Sub ×5) of Ink Saver Sub.
