Conch is a slap-costing glove in Slap Battles, which means there is no badge to earn, no quest chain to grind, and no separate obtainment place to visit. You buy it from a stand in the lobby once your slap counter is high enough. It arrived in the same update that brought island swap back to the game.
Quick answer: Collect 7,250 slaps, then walk to the Conch stand in the lobby — it sits between the Ice stand (7,500 slaps) and the woah stand (1,000 slaps) — and buy the glove from the stand’s panel.
Conch Glove cost and stats
Conch is a passive glove. The stand lists an ability called Motivating Appeal and marks it as a passive, so there is no active button input tied to it the way there is with an E-ability glove.
| Detail | Value |
|---|---|
| Cost | 7,250 slaps |
| Power | 55 |
| Speed | 14 |
| Ability | Motivating Appeal |
| Ability type | Passive |
| Obtainment | Lobby stand purchase |
Note: slaps are the game’s running currency, so the 7,250 figure is a lifetime total you build up through normal arena play. Nothing else gates the purchase.

How to confirm the Conch Glove unlocked
Two things change immediately after a successful purchase. Your slap total drops by 7,250, and Conch equips from the stand instead of prompting you to buy it again. From there it stays in your glove selection permanently, so you can swap back to it from any stand or the glove menu.
The only thing that blocks the purchase is a slap total below 7,250. There is no badge requirement, no quest prerequisite, and no separate teleport place involved — if the stand will not sell you the glove, keep slapping in the arena until the counter clears the price.
Other changes in the Conch update
Conch did not ship alone. The same changelog covers a batch of glove balance passes, a couple of bug fixes, and the return of a gamemode, which matters if you are grinding slaps with any of the affected gloves.
| Glove or system | Change |
|---|---|
| Conch | Added to the game |
| Groundbreaker | E ability slowed by 20%; E ability can now be cancelled on ragdoll; 4-second spawn cooldown added |
| Slasher | 4-second spawn cooldown added to the E and R abilities |
| Snowball and Spoonful | Penalty applied if the E ability is cancelled |
| Kraken | Fixed the glove counting slaps twice |
| Siphon | Fixed being reflected when infected by a glove |
| Emote Shop | New cassette Neon Collage added; cassette list now scrolls |
| Elude Stage | Fixed a bug that prevented buying emotes |
| Island swap | Re-added |
The Kraken fix is the one worth flagging if you were banking slaps toward Conch. That glove had been counting slaps twice, so any total you built with it before the patch will grow more slowly now that each slap registers once.
