tri-stringer (splatoon)
Splatoon weapon introduced in Splatoon 3.
This particular weapon appeared in the promotional content before release as a sort of mascot of the new weapon class.
For the other, smaller stringer weapons, see Reef-Lux 450 and Wellstring V.
The tri-stringer appears to be a bow made from a fishing rod, complete with the reel and string, with 3 protrusions on the bow from where ink is launched. When fired it shoots up to 3 projectiles that spread out either vertically or horizontally depending on whether one is airborne or not. Upon impacting a paint-able surface, they'll explode after a short time.
The string and the protrusions that fire the ink are color-coded to match the user's current ink color.
Functionally, stringers need to charge up before firing, similar to chargers and splatlings, and can be interrupted by the user going into squid/octopus form. They appear to also be able to hold a charge, similar to most of Splatoon 2's chargers and the Nautilus set of splatlings.
