- The Overclocked Pulse Rifle, when hip fired, fires almost as fast as a Flapjack Rifle. Be sure to keep this in mind when in a close range fight.
- Aiming down sights decreases the fire rate, trading it for better damage and perfect accuracy. Depending on your situation, you might want to use one firing mode over the other.
