Welcome all Grizzco employees! Training manual not enough information for you? No problem! We’re here to provide supplemental information to help you in your quest to climb the ranks in the company! We specialize in tips and tricks to make your Salmon Run experience easier and strive to expand the manual one tip at a time!
This blog’s goal is to highlight techniques that can make your jobs in the field easier. If you’re new here, please review the following information before exploring our content or sending an ask or suggesting a tip for us to test:
Salmon Run Tips caters directly toward beginner and intermediate players. We do cover a few advanced techniques and one of our mods is an overfisher (advanced players who try to optimize their playstyle), but we mostly cover techniques and skills that most middle of the road players will be able to replicate or aren’t aware of. This means that our tips might not be written in a way that optimizes egg gains or mob/chum/lesser control and instead directly address ways to stay alive to the end of the wave or to deal with pesky enemies that might be a problem for most players. In the future, this may change, but, for now, our goal is to help as many people as possible get to the end of their shifts!
For Salmon Run: Next Wave, we will not be revisiting tips that we covered for Splatoon 2’s Salmon Run, unless something has changed between the two modes (ex: how Killer Wail 5.1 interacts with Mothership similarly to Stingray, Maw’s new warning sound, etc.). Please take the time to review our whole archive of advice before sending in an ask about something, as we may simply delete your ask if it was something we already covered. Everything is tagged for your convenience, and we make sure to mention every important fact in the text of the post itself (weapon/map/boss/special), so the blog is easily searchable if you’re looking for something specific!
We strive to only post advice that we can replicate twice in the field on two separate occasions and only use videos that we take ourselves. We do this because we want to ensure that every tip, trick, and piece of advice we post here is 100% legit and replicable by everyone and to guarantee that there is no glitching or exploits going on. We do focus our investigations based on advice or discoveries from other people from time to time and give credit for the initial discovery when necessary, but every video here is taken by one of our mods during regular gameplay (unless stated otherwise, such as when playing in the Shoal). We consider ourselves as an aggregate operation: most of the things we post are things we discovered ourselves, but we also try to test, capture, digest, and present tricks from other sources. Our main goal is to provide advice based on a rigorous testing process. We do not claim to invent this knowledge and most of our advice would dawn on most people from regular gameplay, but sometimes it helps to see things written out. That’s why we’re here!
Please have patience when suggesting tips. Our team is full of working adults who have multiple projects going on and we have to carve out time to play and test things. We also run this blog on a queue, with 3-5 posts going up a day (when we have batches in the works), so it may take a while for your suggestion to make it into our testing queue and then onto the blog. We also do not answer most suggestion asks as we receive a bunch and don’t want to clog up the blog with the same message over and over again (we’re testing this! or it’s already in the queue!). The best place to suggest things is in our ask box. Dropping things in the tags or in a comment on a post will most likely get missed, so if you really want us to see something please place it gently and lovingly into the ask box.
We hope that we can continue to help you on your Salmon Run journey well into Splatoon 3’s life cycle! Big Runs are coming and we’re excited to jump in with you!
