Special Weapon Effects
It's a helluva thing... – +400% Critical Hit Damage Bonus, reduced fire rate
Usage & Description
The Unforgiven remains largely unchanged from its previous incarnations, featuring high damage potential in exchange for a slow fire rate that prevents the weapon from firing as fast as the user can pull the trigger. As such, it excels at short-medium range as a faux-sniper rifle, aiming for critical spots to make the most of the Unforgiven
Notes
Trivia
