![]() Carbine Basics: * 18 rounds in a clip * In MLG Settings: seven shots kill, the last requiring a head shot (when shields are down) * Faster firing rate than BR = faster kill if all shots are landed * Harder to maintain aim than BR
While harder to aim than a Battle Rifle, the Carbine’s fast-firing rate rewards a good shot with a faster frag.
MLG settings place several Carbines throughout the map and it’s always a good idea to pick one up to have as a secondary or even primary weapon. While a mauler, sniper or rocket is the preferred secondary weapon, it’s always a good idea to carry something to give one some extra shots. The carbine provides use in many situations, some that make it preferable to the Battle Rifle. |
