[@HYPER_BRUH_]

@@mythlessrwf but in theory you won't need as many different pieces of gear because you can change the main ability (for a ridiculous amount of chunks but still) So you can find some clothes you like the looks of and make the entire fit(s) to your liking.

[@spaceman_256]

Worth mentioning that the amount of gold you get from salmon run can vary greatly. Ive seen shifts that gave me absolutely none and some that gave me gold in almost every capsule

[@mikevisby8744]

The nice thing is you can also get food and drink tickets from salmon run. I am using drink tickets to farm ability chunks on my splatfest tee, so they are quite useful.

[@freddyvasquez3063]

Yes but you have to hope for competent team mates

[@tokki_]

Something you failed to address is the fact that splat zones in anarchy tend to result in fast K.O.s much more often, so you are more likely to get shorter matches and more likely to get K.O.s, making it the superior farm for both money and XP.

[@Dethneko]

Except every match needs a losing team, so it's only profitable if you're consistently on the winning team. Otherwise it's a money trap.

[@celestialTangle]

*Hold it!* In Splatoon 2, Ranked (now Anarchy) gave more coins at higher ranks. I believe the same is the case in Splatoon 3.

[@VaskoGames]

Good point, I did this in A rank, but recently ranked up to S, and the rewards are still the same. I will double check on it when I get to S+ and when X rank comes out, but for now it looks like the money gain is the same regardless of rank.

[@freddyvasquez3063]

[@saltybacon206]

[@LavendaPanda]

Wow some cool calculation techniques there! thank you for your efforts !

[@vvindicator]

0:30 lmao "What is this? Genshin Impact?" soooo true 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Spencer-wc6ew]

I wonder if you could cheese this with a group of 8. You all circle the map with dynamo rollers the whole match. If you follow a pattern and don't fight, you could ink a huge amount of turf in total.

[@Splatoon_Kirby]

People have been doing a version of this with reflux, but its been confirmed this is against ToS and is a ban offense and there has been at least one ban for this.

[@Dethneko]

Yeah, this is the estimation I came up with. You're skill level determines how much cash you'll make per match, but unless you're getting consistent 1-2 min KO victories in anarchy then you're probably more likely to make more bank in turf war. My beginner's guide to Splatoon 3. Step 1: Play Turf War until Mr. Grizz will let you work for him. Step 2: Work for Mr. Grizz 40-80 hours farming chunks. Step 3: Buy a hat/clothes/shoe combination you like. Step 4: Play Turf War until you've unlocked all three ability slots. Step 5: Use the chunks you farmed from Salmon Run to reslot any abilities you don't like. Step 6: Play Turf War. Step 7: ??? Step 8: Profit.

[@chantolove]

If you’re gonna do the shared meals with randoms, save them for SPLATFESTS!

[@starrshort6403]

THANK YOU I NEEDED THIS VIDEO

[@EndlessEvelyn]

“Watch out gamers, I’ve committed a science” is an amazing quote, very relatable.

[@ZtotheMills]

Ever since the Splatfest began, I've been very curious about the data behind scrubbing your splatfest shirt, and which is the most efficient way to do it. 2k per scrub is peanuts so its easy to scrub it after 1 substat. [Which I assume is the most efficient.] But I'm curious about exactly how much time is being saved, compared to money wasted scrubbing after 1 each time, compared to waiting for 2. [3 is most certainly too much of a wait, but it'd be fun to know anyways] [When drinks are involved I have to assume scrubbing on the 1st is even better because lowering the needed XP each time means more rolls for the desired stat.]

[@misomie]

I don't know the actual math but I do a few things. If I'm playing solo I often go for 2 before scrub. If I have extra time and a lot of money or I just really hate the roll it gave me I'll scrub at one sub. Playing with one friend changes things. I'll almost never scrub 1 and often push the scrub to rotations. 2 though is a good one to shoot for if they want to do the same. 3 or full squad I almost only scrub at rotation or communication error just because reforming is annoying af. If we do want to farm chunks we usually just do it at 3. I haven't done any of the actual math, just what feels annoying or not and leaving to talk to Merch is very annoying to me. For actual math you can think of it as buying chunks. 2k a chunk, 1k a chunk or 666 a chunk. Scrubbing full gear has a better price point but level three is such a time stretch that 2 is probably your best bet. When using drink tickets in 2 I'd always scrub immediately if the first slot wasn't what I wanted. Probably gunna do the same in 3 once I actually have money

[@ry6554]

TL;DR: Do Anarchy battles with a food boost, and do turf wars without a food boost. Keep in mind that if you play turf war, you’ll be burning through those crab traps and pescatariats much faster than in anarchy battles. If you want your tickets to count towards more cash or exp, go Anarchy. Your ticket supply is really the defining factor in making money. Same goes for exp. Make it count. However, once you run out of tickets, I would definitely recommend Turf Wars over Anarchy, since it’s quite faster. Unless you have the greatest gaming chair in the history of gaming chairs. If you do, go for Anarchy.

[@Me-xr5ou]

This tutorial will be helpful for getting dem coins. Although, I also wonder how you can get your catalog level up fast (I NEED the Dab) so far from what I’ve found is that you just play matches and level up. I hope there’s a more efficient way 😔

[@jamestookmyphoto]

Awesome video, I'm a dedicated fan now. Well shot and narrated and funny. Ty!

[@briandavidgilbertclips7223]

id like to mention that in salmon run, a gold colored superbonus will ALWAYS get you 32k gold in straight cash! if you see one, make sure to grab it!

[@CobiaCrossink]

If you must play Anarchy Battles to earn more cash, you can try Splat Zones. In my experience, they are often the fastest. You might want to not play on open if your rank is higher in the other rotation. You can also get four cash tickets from the single player mode. But you have to go through the entire world to do so. That might not be the best use of your time. Salmon Run is your friend here.

[@abra_escaped]

[@xTurboshellx]

May want to look into how much gold you get for wins at each rank in anarchy mode as the amount in past games has increased as you rank up. They may not have included that system here but if they did... you should get more mulah 💰 for winning at higher ranks 👍.

“It’s not always about the money squider-man”

[@boomdx2109]

Honestly I think Salmon Run is the best one, with the prizes you can get up to 16,000 (that’s the max I’ve ever had) so honestly it’s really effective for me

[@alphasquared]

You can get like 30k ish from one capsule if you’re like (idk if it’s only superbonuses tho)

[@Sofisasam]

you can get 30k from a shiny capsule tho

[@ShiniGGami]

the problem is that in turf war every second match or even more often people leave at the beginning of the match and the match gets cancelled Huge time loss

[@bawbsmith]

This is interesting, but it’s unfortunate they decided to use “turf inked” as the sole factor for turf wars. This kinda forces grinders to play a more limited set of weapons. Not that a e-liter 4K can’t paint, but sploosh is almost always going to cover more turf in a given game.

[@cornbonzo7027]

i'm so glad that splatoon 3 made weapons not take money because dropping a good 1/2 of my daily revenue on weapons i wanted to try sucks. so glad that you just get them by playing now. also super glad that i don't have to spend super sea snails to increase stars on gear.

[@isquirtmilkfrommyeye]

Awesome video! Thank you. I’d like a video on how to tell if someone is seeing my posts or locker. Even better if I’m able to tell how many “freshes” it got

[@jjjabbers]

I'm very thankful for this video, definitely verifies that I've been following a good method of sticking to Turf Wars as a way to gain money. For any players of the game, what exactly are the benefits of playing Anarchy Battles? I've noticed clams are a currency in Salmon Run but have no idea if Clam Blitz (or any Anarchy Battles) helps with that.

[@VaskoGames]

The "clams" in Salmon run are fish scales you get from encountering the Cohozuna and are not at all related to Clam Blitz. Anarchy in general is just the more "competitive" modes of Splatoon since they include an objective to push. It's kind of there just for fun and to give a ranking system you can try to climb up as you play.

[@shyguytimmy]

How long on average would it take a player to get all the weapons?

does the 50% stack with the team double cash ticket or does it just override it

[@VaskoGames]

no stack, unless you are using an exp ticket, and a teammate is using a team double cash, then you will be getitng the exp bonus and cash bonus

[@cumsoak]

just did some math and i need to play 13 hours of splatoon a day to be able to get this season's rare banner

[@Katie-hj5eb]

You cant stack 2 shared gold tickets, buya shared gold and a shared exp can be active at the same time, so if your playing with friends two people can give all 4 both.

[@polymerwario]

So two people each get one shared gold and one shared xp?

[@khaseem_srt]

[@doggy800]

[@squiddler7731]

I'd also like to point out: in splatoon 2 you were able to get tons of extra money by grinding salmon run past the main rewards, but in 3 this isn't the case anymore. In 2, you'd get a bunch of duplicate gear which could be traded for either 4000 cash, one gear chunk, or three chunks depending on how many sub abilities the gear had, but now in three the gear _always_ has sub abilities (either 1 2 or 3). So for players that play a ton of salmon run, they'll end up with much less money from it than they used to get from in 2 (but way more ability chunks by comparison)

[@C0deXANA]

Salmon Run is my friend and Is favorite mode and we're both suffering 😭

[@Dracattack]

[@Colin-dk4ym]

[@lol-ih1tl]

If you buy every piece of gear, every Hotlantis item 10 times, make every piece of gear 5 stars and unlock every title and banner, then the only use for cash will be for scrubbing and using the Gacha machine for tickets.

[@exile1523]

Thanks so much for this. I wanted to get everything in the shops before they sell out and then I end up broke

[@KeifferAustin167]

This is great info! We also need to know how greatly the sub skill drinks effect the ability on a piece of gear! The best (and craziest) method to find this out might be to play 1 turf war game on 20 outfits of new clothing, so that your next 20 battles with the effect on will always level up your hat, shirt, and shoes. That's 60 new abilities, and a good sample size to test how greatly the drink effects new abilities. Another, more reasonable method, is to use the splatfest shirt and drink the same sub ability drink 3 - 5 times. Every 2 turf war games you should be able to scrub the shirt (with a minor loss in coins). So you could have 50 data after 5 drinks

[@VaskoGames]

Great idea! Thank you for also suggesting the fresh clothing thing for 20 battles, its a great idea and will speed up collecting data so much!!!

Thanks for the great video! I'm looking into compiling some more detailed data on the game, so I was wondering if you had any math/data from your testing sessions I could take a look at? In particular, I'm curious how you ended up at the figure of 4.5 min for the average Anarchy match. I'm looking to see if I can both maximize my return for playing the various modes and learn some cool things to hopefully share with the community. Thanks!

[@VaskoGames]

I just recorded all the info the game gives me after a match and used that as inputs. The 4.5 for anarchy is because the occasional KO or getting KOed in the first 2-3 minutes of the match. I've noticed overtime rarely runs longer than a few seconds at the moment. Either way, the 4.5 works as a "better case" situation, using the typical 5 minute game in the calculations make Anarchy even slower for farming coins.
