Talk: Invader (pistol)

Or perhaps this is really white? As the stats of it are rather mediocre as is the sell cost. The only thing special about this is the effect.

This is a level 24 version, if received at max level I am sure it would have better stats than purple repeaters at that level.--Saphireking65 01:21, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

Check out Weapons by prefix. The stats of a weapon are based on several factors. Title, prefix, model and material are all important to make a good gun. That particular Invader has Wicked which is a good prefix, but it also has a weak model and the common material. Orange guns are always orange, likewise as bugged oranges so-called pearlescent guns are always white. Orange weapons get to have a special property, but they're not guaranteed to be strong. If it wasn't forced that RF Wicked Invader would probably be green quality. A normal Title that gets a great prefix, model and material forms a purple far stronger than an orange Title without. --Raisins 01:50, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

I also found an orange Invader sometime... if you want the screenshot, just ask. --HybridDragoness 23:43, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

Please. Could you also list the parts or at least confirm the special effect (and therefore the scope part) --Raisins 04:01, January 7, 2010 (UTC)

Here we go: Note the fact that all Invaders posted here have scopes. HybridDragoness 10:30, January 17, 2010 (UTC)

Somehow, I got a 'double invader' from a chest. Should I upload? 203.55.19.34 23:46, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

rant

I don't know where I should add this but I got a gun that acts like an invader (entire clip shot while zoomed) and has the same skin(except for being blue) and its called a TKS.N Shredder Shredder and it does x4 Lightning and is a Hyperion.--Zachispro 11:29, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

I take back the being blue part, as it looks blue in the inventory due to the electric damage, I know its not modded as I got it myself while facing Crawermax, but it doesn't even have the red flavor text, I'm very confused and am wondering if my gun is glitched.--Zachispro 11:56, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

It's modded. (And I really don't care where you got it from, just sayin'.) Shredder Shredder should have tipped you off.  nagy   talklog     12:02, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Oh what I was trying to say is that I got it alone and I only mod I've used is a shield mod, does that permanently mess with the game???---Zachispro 12:24, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't permanently mess with the game as much as it does mess with people. Shredder is a title of shotgun.  nagy   talklog     12:51, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Ah well Im not quite sure what you mean by the last comment, but I believe you though, I thought it was just highly improbable, not impossible. Still curious to how I got this though, sucks that it's not legit :/.--Zachispro 13:09, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Possible glitch...?

I found an Invader recently and I was messing around with it on my Soldier (which is using a +20 ammo regen support COM) I noticed that it seems to regen ammo far faster than other weapons. At first I wondered if it was glitched, but then I found a second invader, and it did the exact same. I'm used to ammo regening fast due to my support COM, but after accounting for my character's skills/COM, the Invader has a 23 bullet magazine, which it empties in about a second or two, after which (and the very brief reload time) it's entire ammo is already restocked... With other weapons of similar, and even inferior, fire rate, if I go "full auto" my ammo generally goes down slowly, causing me to lose small amounts of ammo if I don't give it a couple of moments to recuperate between clips. But with the exact same ammo regen, this gun somehow manages to recover a far greater ammount of rounds than other weapons. I admit I don't fully understand how ammo regen "speed" works, but I tried with faster firing weapons , slower firing , guns with similar clips, bigger clips, and guns with smaller clips... So far this seems to only affect the Invader's ammo regen speed. I can post pictures of both my Invaders if necessary. Is there a specific mechanic of ammo regen I'm missing? Any thoughts?
