Guardian

Guardian is a light machine gun model. All infobox examples on this article are crafted from Quality 50 components unless noted otherwise.

Description

The Guardian has a considerably wider damage range than the other LMG frames, leading to potentially high but inconsistent damage output. It fires three extra shots per burst, shares the Tango's higher base AP costs, and additionally has higher minimal strength requirements. As a belt-fed LMG, the Guardian has a larger ammo capacity counterbalanced by a higher reload cost and slightly worse burst precision.

Crafting

It is based on Light Machine Gun Frame: Guardian. Quality of the frame determines the weapon's damage potential and durability.
