Solid choice if you're looking for a weapon with the same all-round capabilities as the trusted T1 Cycler.

In close quarter fights, its high rate of fire makes it even more foregiving than the T1 Cycler, so missing a bullet will be less of a deal breaker while still dealing out the same damage per second. But it also means you're doing lower damage per magazine and you run out of bullets a lot faster. So timing your reloads is more important with this weapon. Fortunately, it has a very quick reload, making it a great peekaboo weapon.

On medium ranges it has a very controllable recoil and fast bullet speed going for it compared to the T1 Cycler. Which means you don't have to lead your moving target that much and you can squeeze off a few more rounds before resetting your burst. Timing your bursts consistently is more tricky though and headshots have less of an impact if you don't land the follow-up shot.

Beyond medium ranges, compared to the T1 Cycler the fast bulletspeed is an advantage, but the angled recoil is not. Both weapons have too high of a first shot recoil to begin with to make them really suitable for longer range combat.

Recommended attachments: Fwd grip, compensator, soft point ammo, 1x or 2x reflex.
