How to get fish scales in Splatoon 3 (gold, silver, bronze)

Players can obtain fish scales in Splatoon 3 by defeating or damaging Xtrawave King Salmonid in Salmon Run Next Wave, which is a cooperative multiplayer mode. When you damage King Salmon, you have a chance to get three types of scales – Bronze, Silver, and Gold. The higher the danger levels, the rarer the type of scale drop will be.

The level of danger is calculated by the sum of the ratings of all players in the match. And so, in order to get the “Golden” fish scales, you need to damage the Royal Salmon at a higher level of danger. Be prepared because the boss will be very difficult for you – good coordination between teammates will be extremely important during this time.

Salmon Run Next Wave is a horde mode where you will face three waves of salmon. Keep destroying them and then after the third wave there is a chance Xtrawave can happen. This means that king salmon and other smaller salmon bosses will appear. You need to use the egg cannons to shoot the golden eggs at the enemies to damage them, especially the king. This will give you the fish scales in Splatoon 3. As the game reminds you, make sure the king doesn’t squash or splatter you.

Here’s a look at how insane it can be at a high danger level:

Why doesn’t king salmon appear in Salmon Run?

If you’re wondering why King Salmon isn’t appearing in your Salmon Escape matches, you’ll need to complete the prerequisite.

• Check the salmon counter on the top right side of the screen in the Salmon Run lobby.
• As you continue to play Salmon Run matches and successfully complete missions, this meter will fill up.
• Be sure to stay on the same team and keep working on increasing this counter.
• When the meter fills up, get ready to face the king salmon in the next Salmon Run Next Wave match after the third wave.

That’s all about how to get fish scales in Splatoon 3 and how to get king salmon to spawn.
