Strategy
Tips
- Use this in hallways since this weapon has the Ricochet and Piercing Shot attribute.
- Use this weapon in close to medium range as this weapon does not perform well for long range.
- Switch to any weapon with 85 or higher mobility as this weapon does not have the best mobility.
- Use the to slow down enemies that are running away.
- It can be used in Three Category Spam without any delay to certain weapons.
- There is a glitch, it isn't bannable but it will eventually be fixed, it is known as 'The ricochet glitch'. This glitch allows the user to one shot the opponent no matter what if it ricochets from the floor directly to the sky upon firing, but performing this is tricky as you need to know where you are going to hit.
- Try to hit people with the ricochet because that will do significantly more damage.
Counters
- Attack the user from long range, but keep in mind that this weapon can be used for long range if the user is skilled enough.
- Attack the user with area damage weapons.
- Outrun the user with an 85 mobility weapon.
- Strafe around the enemy to waste their ammo as this weapon's fire rate isn't the fastest.
- Stay away from tight corridors.
