Functionality

Functionality[]

Powerup Minigun is a fully automatic, fast firing, medium ranged weapon, not very accurate, and has a spin up timer, which means the player cannot fire it instantly. Powerup Minigun does not have a magazine size, and works on a cooldown system. Firing the weapon for too long will cause it overheat, and the player must wait a short time before using it again. When the weapon is close to overheating, the fire rate increases and the bullet spread decreases. However, this weapon can evolve. It starts at the Common Sideways Minigun, and goes to the Mythic Sideways Minigun.

Powerup Minigun is a Hitscan weapon and doesn't have First Shot Accuracy.
