The Wildcat has an extended magazine in exchange for very low accuracy. Even if it spawns with a scope, it is hard to make precise shots with this weapon. Therefore, hitting targets in the head is nearly impossible from a distance. It's ideally suited for use as a close quarters combat weapon, however a generic [[Shotgun]] or [[Anarchy]] SMG will do the job better. It features high elemental effect (when present), yet nothing that can't be surpassed by a more common [[Maliwan]] SMG. One of the only redeeming features of the Wildcat is a lower max spread when hip firing.
