Keep in mind that mag increases apply to base values. So if you have a rolling thunder SAW modded with a high cap mag III, it'll have 85 * (1 + 0.5 + 0.15) = 140 bullets in the mag.maverick07: purple & blue mods - priced to move

11 years ago (April 22, 2014, 4:13 am)
Thunder all the way, yes. More DPS than any other LMG, and more accuracy / less recoil than any of them as well. SAWs do hit harder crits, but with that awful recoil that's only good for something...Tekrunner: May 2 Livestream Question Collection
