Strategy[]

	This section outlines a strategy.
	Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.

• Unlike the Nemesis AR and Enforcer AR, the Burst AR has damage fall-off. This means that at a range of 10 meters and above, the weapon will lose its ability to 3 shot enemies with extra 50 shield to the body. This is why when playing with the Burst AR, its recommended to always aim at head level past that distance.
• Even with damage fall-off, the Burst AR's low recoil and 3 round burst still allows it to be effective at medium to long ranges.
• The Burst AR is the second cheapest AR in the game, with the cheapest being the Enforcer AR, making this gun very good for early rounds.

Counters[]

• When engaged with an opponent wielding the Burst AR, using a weapon with an easier recoil pattern and no damage fall-off, such as the Nemesis AR or Enforcer AR, can be viable.

Weapon ID[]

The Burst AR is referred to as Assault Feral Burst in the files.

• Common: WID_Assault_Feral_Burst_Athena_R
