The MGR-C1 Charger is a carbine available to the New Conglomerate. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The Modular Gauss Rifle-C1 Charger is a carbine released alongside the MG-C1 Kindred and VE-C Horizon as part of a series of empire specific weapons, each bringing interesting mechanics to the lineup alongside unique attachments, with the Charger bringing an overcharging system allowing it to fire at a faster rate at the start of each magazine.

The Charger's first seven rounds in each magazine fire with a shorter refire time, at a rate-of-fire of 652 RPM. After these first seven rounds have been fired, any further shots from that same magazine fire at a longer refire time, at a rate-of-fire of 600RPM.

History

• June 26, 2019 Update
  • Number of charged shots per mag from 5 to 7.
  • Dev Note: Increasing the charged shot count allows players in the top end of their magazine to secure a six-round bodyshot kill against unmodified health pools, as well as some room for leniency with the seventh round.
• November 17, 2021 Update
  • Short reload from 2.475sec. to 2.15sec.
  • Long reload from 3.38sec. to 2.75sec.
• March 30, 2022 Update (The Arsenal Update)
  • When "uncharged" the weapon no longer drops to a 143 damage model, and instead scales back rate of fire.
  • Refire rate when uncharged from 92ms to 100ms
  • Dev Note: This is a significant buff to the weapon, as a 600rpm model (100ms refire) is near top-tier for the 167 damage category. This change also does away with shots to kill discrepancies that can be tied to bouncing between two damage models.
