A Twitter user by the name of @rougsmth set out on an investigation into which attacks in Splatoon 3<\/strong> detect hits on the attacker\u2019s side and which ones detect hits on the target\u2019s side. The results can be found here<\/a> (Japanese). Please note that @rougsmth stuck to just sharing the information they uncovered, so any opinions in this article are my (the original author of this article) own based on that information.

Splatoon 3 contains a variety of weapons. However, when taking a look at each one, they are actually divided between those that detect hits on the attacking side and those that detect hits on the target\u2019s side. For those that calculate on the attacking side, no matter how it looks to the player being attacked, they\u2019re going to take damage if the attack lands on the attacker\u2019s screen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the opposite side, for weapons that calculate on the target\u2019s side, even if it looks to the attacker like their shot landed, if the target avoids the attack on their screen, they don\u2019t take damage. We\u2019ve all experienced thinking we hit a shot or dodged an attack only for the damage to say otherwise. This is the reason for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

@rougsmth looked into each weapon to figure out which side the hits are detected on. To do this, they used the pose feature in Recon private matches. This is because the feature makes the player not take damage from attacks that detect hits on the target\u2019s side. To summarize the results, main weapons, apart from those that can separate from the player, generally detect hits on the attacker\u2019s side.
