This tracking system has a max range of 100 meters and puts a unique, pellet spread-like overlay around the user's crosshair.

Strategy Guide[]

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

• The Lock On Assault Rifle's DPS can be misleading, as the fire rate statistic doesn't take the fire rate between bursts into account. The weapons damage, while low, is pretty consistent, and can hit for upwards of 156 damage per lock-on.
• When using the Lock On Assault Rifle, it is not recommended to use it without locking on, as the burst delay is a bit long, and the damage is too low for being used outside of locking onto an opponent.
• One thing the Lock On Assault Rifle is great for is dealing with retreating or rotating enemies, especially if they are using items like the Wingsuit, as the weapon can lock on and do large amounts of damage perfectly accurately.

Counters[]

• Although a bit impractical, one way to counter the Lock On Assault Rifle is to engage at very long ranges as not only is the targeting range capped at 100 meters, but the weapon is also inaccurate by itself.
• Instant cover items, like the Shield Bubble Jr. and Port-A-Bunker, are very good counters to the Lock On Assault Rifle.
• The Lock On Assault Rifle cannot target invisible players, such as those under the effects of a Stealth Splash or Cloak Gauntlets.
• The Lock On Assault Rifle has poor headshot damage, only having a 1.25x headshot multiplier compared to the average 1.5x multiplier of the AR class. Using weapons that are more rewarding of headshots, or are just more powerful in general, can be beneficial against opponents with the Lock On Assault Rifle.
