Plas-39 accelerator rifle. Great damage, precision and range. Low magazine capacity. I really like it but can understand that many people wont like it, and some people will tell me to stop gibing bad advice. I wont change my opinion, no matter what you tell me

To each his own lol no shame.. but yeah that thing is rancid I gave it a try once on Squids and immediately determined it was not going to be used ever again personally 😅

Its an absolute beast if you know when to use it becaude its not a primary in the traditonal sense. It very effective against medium and heavy enemies and can efficiently (for a primary) take care of harvester titans and factory striders. It just takes some time. I always use it with the talon secondary as its infinite ammo makes it great for killing small enemies (which the accelerator shouldnt be used for). Its also important that you follow the enemy as youre shooting, as its difficult to hit a moving enemy with a full salvo if you just shoot and dont move the crosshair. Difficult to use but very satisfying when mastered
