G30 Walker/Sunderer

The G30 Walker is a gunner weapon available to the Sunderer, among other vehicles. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The G30 Walker is a fast-firing anti-air machine gun, sacrificing a good chunk of power against ground targets in exchange for exceptionally high velocity and excellent damage against air targets. Unlike most dedicated anti-air weapons, the Walker has no type of proximity fusing or lock-on mechanic built into it, requiring gunners to directly hit the target.

Compared to its brother, the G40-F Ranger, the G30 Walker demands considerably higher skill out of the user, even with its incredibly high velocity, thanks to not having access to the highly generous proximity fuse of the Ranger. In exchange, however, the Walker has higher damage output against all targets than the Ranger, particularly against larger aircraft, and the Walker can be feasibly used against softer ground targets, a feat the Ranger's cone-of-fire and poor direct damage makes nigh-impossible.

Just like the Ranger, the Walker is unable to look below level, thus is unable to target anything below the vehicle. This can be somewhat circumvented by using slopes to tilt the vehicle, however.

The Sunderer's variant of this weapon is slightly less potent due to the vehicle being able to equip two at once. The weapon's damage falls off to 85 damage at minimum damage range, rather than 115.
