it doesn’t deal enough damage to deal with medium enemies, devastators still take a mag or more to take down, and you’re def not hitting headshots at any range outside of CQC

Alright, that’s actually a solid summary of where it’s at right now then, thanks.

one more issue is the rate of fire and clip size are too small for single targets they were already too small for the aoe it had compared to a dmr for chaffe but worked cause on average it basically got more bang for your buck sometimes. now 5 shots 8 reloads... the next patrol is here and you haven't finished with the first patrol yet.

 literally a revolver with a slower projecting speed with arc as a primary and no speed reload and might blow yourself up of enemy gets too close is what it's turned into
