    How do I use a dynamo roller with ease in the rainmaker mode?
    Community Answer
    Be sure to use the rolling feature of the weapon as much as possible. The dynamo roller has a very large width of ink when rolling and can easily crush opponents. If you're using the standard dynamo roller in Splatoon 2, be sure to use as much sub power up on your gear as possible. This will cause your ink mines to affect opponents for much longer.

    The E-Liter 3K/4K is the most efficient at popping the Rainmaker's barrier because of its powerful shots.

    Should I place a beacon near the rainmaker drop for teammates to superjump to it in Splatoon?
    Community Answer
    This may work in some cases, but not all, as teammates could get caught out by the enemy. I would only place a beacon in places you know it will be safe to do so.

    How do I fire the rainmaker in Splatoon?
    Community Answer
    In both Splatoon and Splatoon 2, you hold down ZR to fire the rainmaker. Splatoon will have you release an ink tornado, while Splatoon 2 will have you aim the Rainmaker in an arc and explode like a bomb.

    Rollers are good to use, because they spread lots of ink with little ink consumption.
  • Question
    I always get splatted by a charger each time I have the rainmaker. How can I stop that from happening?
    Community Answer
    Try to splat the person or swim away if possible. If you can't and get splatted, sneak up on the person and splat them.
