Fully automatic shotgun. Good range and handling. High recoil and large hip spread.

Clear rooms with this fast firing full-auto Shotgun that overwhelms enemies with a hail of lead. The perfect weapon for the new Racket Strike map and in any confined area, the Maelstrom requires getting up close, its heavy recoil and large hip spread quickly losing effectiveness at range.

Down enemies fast with this powerful Sniper Rifle providing a one-shot elimination across the upper body not accounting for armor. Its high damage is balanced by slow aim speed and heavy recoil, though these drawbacks can be alleviated with the right attachments. However you customize it, this thing is guaranteed to hit hard.

Melee Weapon: Cleaver (In-Season)
Melee, Event Reward

Levels: 30

Mastery Badges: Yes

Attachments: None

One-hit kill. Short-medium range. Medium attack speed.

3-Round Burst Mod Conversion (In-Season)

Kompakt 92 SMG, Fire Mod, Archie’s Festive Frenzy Event Reward
