TheHero Charger is not available during regularOcto Valley missions but can be used at theamiibo stand inInkopolis Plaza with anInkling Girl amiibo. When using this amiibo, the player is given the chance to go through some of the previous Octo Valley levels that they have beaten and replay them using a charger rather than ashooter.

Visually, it is based on the Hero Charger found inOcto Valley, but stats-wise it is identical to theSplat Charger.

When the blueprints are obtained and given toSheldon inAmmo Knights, he gives the player the Hero Charger Replica as he cannot copy the technology shown on the blueprints. It, therefore, loses the specially-designed Agent 3Splat Bombs.

The Hero Charger looks slightly similar to the real-life M16 Rifle, an iconic weapon and the standard service rifle for many armies in the world; however, the M16 is an assault rifle rather than a sniper rifle.

The Hero Charger Replica comes withSplat Bombs and theBomb Rush.

Unlock

To unlock the Hero Charger Replica, the player must play the last set of missions from the Inkling Girlamiibo:

The blueprints to the Hero Charger Replica are received after completing thefifth boss challenge.

    Quotes

    		Sheldon's Introduction

    TheHero Charger Replica is an alternate design of the standardSplat Charger model with the same stats and setup. This weapon came about after I made a breakthrough in my research and managed to create the ultimate weapon! Sadly, it never made it to mass production because the guys at the factory couldn't wrap their heads around my advanced schematics... So instead they just slapped some shiny parts on a standard Splat Charger and called it theHero Charger Replica. Give it a shot!

    Notes

    1. ↑These are the values used by the game for damage scaling; numbers in this range are not necessarily guaranteed to be possible to achieve in-game. For example, 100 is overridden by the full charge damage value, so it will never be seen in-game.
