Walther Gewehr 43 (G43) – ★★ Rifle
Tags: Class: Rifle Role: Night DPS Skill: Selfbuff RoF
G43 is similar to M14 in night battles, but with a RoF skill instead of damage. Was quite usable as a starter night rifle, and better than nothing, but you should really try to get a better one.
Additional Notes#
Dusk's Notes#
Note that she has a 8 second initial cooldown. She does do better most RFs due to her ridiculous base 40 ROF and eventually (8s) she does get her relatively strong buff (strong only at night), which does give her an advantage over the rest.
At night, she is pretty equal to G28, M14 and SVD, but only in the long term. In the first 12 seconds, she drops off after 6s (when the other buffers have their buffs active) and catches back up only at 11 seconds (when the other buffs have ran out). This means that she does worse than the other RFs at a timeframe that matters the most for RFs (if the battle lasts too long, your HGs will be at risk).
Still relatively usable, and solid early game before you get the higher rarity RFs. At least better than non-self buffer RFs due to her base ROF and actually usable skill.
