Introduction
The Punisher T is a medium kinetic weapon. It was released in version 0.2.1.
This Gatling gun has an effective range of 200 meters and a maximum range of 500 meters. At its maximum range of 500 meters, very few bullets will hit the target decreasing its damage substantially.
It has a light counterpart, the Punisher, which is a version of the Punisher T with lower damage. It is essentially a Gatling gun, and it has the highest firing rate of any weapon in the game. It is lethal at close range but due to bullet spread, it becomes increasingly inaccurate as the range increases.
All Punishers (as well as Molots and Tempest) accelerate fire rate up to 1.5x usual speed, if fired continuously for longer time than 3 seconds. Accelerated state is disabled if firing is stopped for more than 1 second or ammo is depleted.
The Punisher T, on par with Thunder are the best weapons for disabling the Ancile shield, especially on a sentried Fujin.
The Punisher T is best used for close range combat, and is most effective when equipped in pairs, such as the Rogatka or Griffin. However, due to low accuracy, big bullet spread but still high damage, Punishers are good at destroying big robots up close; for all other tasks there are better choice of weapons.
