Dare I say it... One of the best weapons I've ever handled. Does it near the DPS of the TAR or Cylcer TRV? No way. But we're looking at this, and several things strike out already for me:


 * Muzzle velocity: 620 m/s. Leading targets is so easy with this weapon


 * Magazine size and reload: 40 rounds? eh, its TR nothing spec- WOAH! A short reload of 2.12 s? That's like, NC stuff here (setting aside the Gauss SAW's godawful reload)


 * A variety of attachment options. Better or equal to the Carnage AR's (Carnage AR has adv. forward and laser, but TORQ has both ammo options). You can configure this to your own needs as a weapon platform for your playstyle.


 * Not a bad or good thing, but something to note; the damage and rate of fire is something unseen in any other weapon. Its odd, but not terrible. I think of it as a Generation 2 NC or VS SMG (Blitz or Sirius) that retained their damage, buffed their ROF a bit, and then exponentially increased their range while lower their hipfire ability.

All this, and things you discover while using the weapon, make up for a great TR weapon. This from a regular NC player who only plays TR when he gets annoyed by NC TKers and wants to kill them without penalty (Idk if that's Fourth Factioning, but I don't care). I'd recommend this over the TAR or Cycler TRV that most people look to (if you can afford it). Its got more room to grow (actually a LOT), but not necassarily in the way of the Gauss SAW, where its like "unless you learn, you ain't gonna be doing jack sh*t well."
