The T32 Bull is a light machine gun available to the Terran Republic. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The T32 Bull offers a platform that trades a noticeable amount of damage output and magazine size for improvements to both aimed and hip accuracy and recoil, higher muzzle velocity, and very low damage fall-off—combined with a very quick reload speed for a Terran light machine gun.

Barrel
Compensator

49 OR 100
A compensator redirects gases upward, reducing vertical recoil by 30%, and increasing hipfire cone of fire by 15%. The added sound pressure causes the player to show on the minimap 35m farther away.
Flash Suppressor

49 OR 100
A flash suppressor makes the shooter less visible to the enemy, but increases the range at which you appear on enemy minimaps by 15 meters.
Heavy Barrel

49 OR 100
A heavy barrel reduces cone of fire bloom by 20% while aiming down sights, but reduces aim down sights movement speed by 20%.
Short Barrel

49 OR 100
This shortened barrel reduces cone of fire bloom by 40% when firing from the hip, and increases vertical recoil by 20% while aiming down sights.
Suppressor

49 OR 100
The weapon's muzzle flash and noise generation is reduced, and the player no longer appears on the minimap when firing. In exchange, the weapon's damage falls off 20 meters sooner and bullet velocity is reduced by 15%.
Rail
Angled Forward Grip

49 OR 100
An angled forward grip reduces the vertical recoil of the first shot in a burst by 60%, but increase the side to side recoil of a weapon by 10%.
Darklight Flashlight

The light can be turned on and off with Toggle Attachment hotkey.
Forward Grip

49 OR 100
A forward grip increases control of the weapon, reducing horizontal recoil by 25%, but increases equip time by 0.15 sec.
Laser Sight

49 OR 100
A laser sight increases the user's hipfire accuracy by 33%.
Ammo
High Velocity Ammunition

49 OR 100
High Velocity Ammunition increases the weapon's projectile velocity by 10% and minimum damage range by 20 meters, but reduces the weapon's maximum damage range by 2 meters.
KCAP Ammunition

99 OR 200
KCAP ammunition removes the legshot damage penalty, and increases damage to the leg area by 20%, but decreases headshot damage by 50%.
Soft Point Ammunition

49 OR 100
Soft Point Ammunition increases the weapon's maximum damage range by 5 meters, but reduces its projectile velocity by 10%.
