The Hornet is an orange Repeater Pistol manufactured by Dahl.

Examples are on the talk page.

Special Weapon Effects

Feel the Sting - Fires two-round bursts of corrosive rounds. Chance of increased contaign.

Usage & Description

The Hornet's elemental accessory is notable because it doesn't trade raw power for it's elemental effect. It manages to increase damage along with carry a strong elemental effect with it as well.The Hornet is similar to Combat Rifles in that it fires in bursts. It does however get a huge Fire Rate boost, meaning that with proper handling, the Hornet will fire faster than an equivalent Repeater Pistol.

Notes

  • If The Dove's barrel spawns with the Hornet's accessory, the weapon will have the special effects from both: two-round bursts with zero ammo consumption. It will always appear as a BLR Hornet; however, not all BLR Hornets spawn with The Dove's barrel, and will therefore consume ammo as normal if they have any other barrel.

Mechanics

The Hornet effect comes from the acc5_Hornet_Dahl_Corrosive. Accessory. It is based off of acc5_Corrosive, but with (much) more damage, more tech, and burst fire.
