MJ12 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Original thread: https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/29784-the-hydra-grineer-multistack-rifle/ Just reposting this in Weapon Feedback due to the subforum split. Original Post Below: The accidental Grineer fire rate buff was hilarious (and kind of painful) while it lasted. But it actually inspired me a bit. What if we had guns with similar absolutely and utterly ridiculous buzzsaw fire rates? So here's an idea. The Hydra: Grineer Multistack Rifle Type: Multibarrel Assault Rifle Description: Designed for use by heavily armored Grineer, the HYDRA is a nine-barreled heavy assault rifle with a slow reload and a generous magazine. It fires multiple low-damage shots per trigger pull, resembling a somewhat more accurate automatic shotgun. Its low damage and high fire rate make it excellent for close quarters use by heavily armored units, as its low-power rounds have difficulties penetrating armor. Unfortunately it has a tendency to 'runaway', firing more rounds than intended. Appearance: It's a Grineer version of this: So you know, dark green, bulbous, nine barrels in the front. Damage: 2.0 (not a typo) x 9 Rate: 30.0 Magazine: 180 Reload Time: 6.0 seconds default Accuracy: Mid-Low (depending on burst length) Recoil: Mid-High Special: It has a spin-down time. It will not fire for less than 0.3 seconds (9 rounds) no matter what you do. If you hold it down for a prolonged period this spin-down time increases, to a maximum of 2 seconds. After firing a burst it needs a short period of time to cool, so firing in bursts to maximize accuracy and minimize overkill will reduce its DPS significantly. Special Damage Bonuses/Penalties: Headshot Damage multiplied by x0.75 Yes, its DPS is absolutely ridiculous (assuming you can control your bursts and deal with the 'runaway' issue. Its ammunition consumption is even more ridiculous, though, and more than makes up for it. Also, its low headshot damage mean it's basically only usable for spray-and-pray. Also, its really low per-shot damage actually creates another weakness-because weapon damage rounds normally, elemental damage fails to apply as easily. But for six glorious seconds you are going to be holding in your hands the deadliest implement of destruction in all existence. Just... keep in mind that each rifle ammo pickup is only giving you 0.67 more seconds of firing time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
