Special Weapon Furnishings

Sink me! – When the main projectile hits a surface or hitbox, a 2nd pellet moves vertically in a straight line and splits into 5 separate pellets all with original card stats. These 5 pellets move out in a star pattern, hitting one time at full damage and can then hitting a second fourth dimension at 50% damage. The distance from the kickoff impact to the second touch on depends on the velocity of the projectile.

Usage & Description

The Pimpernel sports 50% splash damage that gets Reaper buffs, only no grenade buffs, and 100% critical hit buff. Unlike other sniper rifles, information technology is really beneficial to aim slightly beneath critical weak spots of a target, allowing the boosted pellets to hit and score disquisitional hits by themselves, possibly boosting the damage washed up to 27 times the card number.
