Ratchet

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

Description

Out of the four LMG frames, the Ratchet has the highest rate of fire with its lower base AP cost and four extra shots per burst. As a belt-fed LMG, it has a larger ammo capacity counterbalanced by a higher reload AP cost and slightly worse burst precision.

Crafting

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