How To Get Ability Chunks Fast Splatoon 2
Okay, Squiddos and Octolings! Let's talk about something crucial for dominating in Splatoon 2: Ability Chunks. Think of them like the secret sauce that makes your gear extra special. You wouldn't go to a fancy restaurant and just order plain pasta, right? You'd want the truffle oil, the perfectly grated parmesan, the oomph that makes it unforgettable. That's what Ability Chunks do for your gear.
But let's be honest, grinding for these little guys can sometimes feel like... well, like waiting in line at the DMV. Painful. Slow. Soul-crushing. But fear not! I'm here to give you the lowdown on how to snag those Ability Chunks fast, so you can get back to inking turf and splatting foes in style.
Why Bother with Ability Chunks Anyway?
Glad you asked! Imagine this: you're in a tight spot, about to get splatted. But BAM! You've got Quick Super Jump on your shoes, and you're gone in a flash, safely back at your spawn point. Or maybe you're surrounded by enemy ink. No sweat! Your Ink Resistance Up keeps you zipping around like a ninja. These abilities can seriously turn the tide of battle.

The Chunk Hustle: Our Guide to a Speedy Splat
Alright, let's get down to the nitty-gritty. How do we accumulate these precious chunks without losing our minds in the process?
1. Scrub-a-Dub-Dub: Murch is Your Best Friend
Murch, that sea urchin hanging out in Inkopolis Square, is your ultimate chunk connection. He can "scrub" gear for you, removing all the abilities and giving you the chunks in return. This is the most reliable way to get chunks, hands down.
So, how do we make scrubbing efficient? Here's the key: Fill up your gear slots with abilities, then scrub! You can do this by playing matches, but there's a smarter way...
2. Salmon Run: The Golden Egg-cellent Chunk Source
Salmon Run isn't just about surviving waves of Salmonids (though that's pretty fun, too). It's also a fantastic source of gear with random abilities. Play Salmon Run until you get some gear from Mr. Grizz. Then, wear it in Turf War or Ranked and let it fill up with abilities. Scrub that gear, and BAM! Chunks galore!
Plus, you get to fight giant salmonid bosses. Who wouldn't want to do that?
3. Gear from SplatNet 2: A Chance Encounter with Chunk Gold
Keep an eye on the SplatNet 2 app (via the Nintendo Switch Online app). Sometimes, you'll find gear for sale with desirable abilities already on them. Buy it, use ability doublers (more on that later!), fill the remaining slots, and scrub! It's like finding a twenty in your old coat pocket!
4. Using Ability Doublers: Maximize Your Chunk Potential
Sometimes you will get ability doublers from the Shell-Out Machine in the Lobby! When used, ability doublers help you roll duplicate abilities more. This is helpful for making a perfect gear setup for Murch to scrub later, turning it into chunks.
5. Drink Up! Know Your Flavors.
Crusty Sean's Crust Bucket offers drinks that boost your chances of rolling certain abilities. It's like drinking a magic potion for better gear! Want more Swim Speed Up? Pop a drink before heading into battle. These drinks are purchased with tickets you get in Salmon Run. It's a win-win!
A Few Pro Tips for the Aspiring Chunk Master
- Focus on 3-star gear: It has more ability slots, meaning more chunks when you scrub it.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: Try different ability combinations to find what works best for you.
- Be patient: Grinding for chunks takes time, but the rewards are worth it.
So there you have it! Your guide to becoming a true Ability Chunk aficionado. Now go forth, ink turf, splat foes, and collect those chunks! Remember, a well-equipped squid is a dangerous squid. And a stylish squid is a fabulous squid. Happy splatting!
