Buzlok

The Buzlok is a Grineer rifle that sports unique homing capabilities. Its Alternate Fire launches a glowing projectile, or a tracer round, that sticks to NPCs or enemies making all subsequent shots home in on the marked target. This special utility, though situational, can also add 50% crit chance on top of landed shots.

This weapon can be sold for.

Characteristics
This weapon primarily deals damage with its normal attacks.

Advantages:
 * High base damage.
 * High damage - effective against shields.
 * Large magazine size.
 * Fires homing rounds capable of tracking moving enemies, and allowing for off-aim shooting.
 * This fire mode adds +50% additive bonus crit. chance to the weapon's total crit. chance.
 * Very ammo efficient.
 * Multishot bullets all land in the same area as the original shot.

Disadvantages:
 * Slow base rate of fire.
 * High recoil.
 * Slow reload speed.
 * Low – less effective against health.
 * Once a target (or object) is selected with tracking beacon, the weapon will fire on that enemy or object until the beacon disappears or the enemy is killed, making it difficult to use against multiple targets.
 * Inaccurate at range without using homing function.
 * Normal fire and tracking beacons have travel time.

Tips

 * Since the Buzlok can fire around corners to hit targets from complete cover, it is especially useful against Hellions, Bombards, and Napalms. They can be quickly tagged between their shots, then safely eliminated.
 * and/or are most useful on the Buzlok due to their punch-through abilities, allowing the homing rounds to hit tagged enemies behind cover.
 * Alternatively aiming high towards the ceiling/sky will make the homing rounds take a more curved trajectory and hit the target from above, bypassing their cover.
 * The homing projectiles will do extra damage on the "weak spots" made by Banshee's Sonar ability. However, this is very difficult since the bullets only home in after having traveled a couple of meters and will often hit other parts of the enemy before hitting the weak spot. Positioning is key to get the best out of this combination.
 * The Buzlok's special homing feature allows it to be a great weapon for damaging fast moving enemies that may prove difficult to hit, such as the Manic, Manic Bombard, Stalker, or Zanuka Hunter.
 * Due to the Buzlok's homing nature, large magazine, and good range, the rifle is surprisingly well suited to The Plains of Eidolon. This is because of the wide open nature of the area, with few blind corners.

Trivia

 * The Grineer text on the side of the gun translates to "DO NOT TOUC" but is missing an "H" at the end to spell TOUCH.
 * This is the first ever weapon to have a homing ability that can be used by players.
 * This is the third Grineer weapon to bear "lok" at the end of its name, the first being the Grinlok and second being the Marelok.
 * The Buzlok's projectiles are miniature missiles; on impact they give off tiny explosions. This is a purely cosmetic effect.
 * As with the Vectis and Vectis Prime, the Buzlok is able to reload whilst scoped in, making it one of the three weapons able to do so.
 * As all projectiles with flight time the Buzlok's projectiles will be affected by Ivara's Navigator.
 * The homing beacon under the effect of Ivara's Navigator will pass through all obstacles until it hits an enemy or when the ability is ended. This can be used at the start of a mission to scout through the entire tileset without stepping foot in it.
 * Oddly, the Buzlok's homing projectile is unable to lock onto Plants found within Earth, Fragments and Resource deposits.
 * Additionally, when fired upon a Resource deposit, it will do minimal damage usually just breaking singular digits.
 * Oddly, the Buzlok is situationally effected by flight speed mods, it will only apply them if firing unguided rounds or the tracer rounds and not when homing into a tracer rounds beacon.
 * The Buzlok is unique in the fact that unlike all other weapons within Warframe, additional bullets caused by multishot mods will all land in exactly the same place, regardless if there is a tracking a beacon or not.

Bugs

 * When firing a tracking beacon with the camera view reversed (I.e. looking over your Warframe's left shoulder) the shot will not line up with the reticle. It will instead drift off to the right.
 * If a tracker has been shot at a disappearing object, such as Frost's Snow Globe when its duration runs out, it will remain attached to nothing until its timer runs out.
 * As of, the energy trails of each projectile fired by the Buzlok will disappear randomly throughout missions and will remain broken the remainder of the mission.
 * When enemies affected by Void fissure corruption are tagged, the Buzlok's scope will display "Corrupted |Enemy| tagged" instead of their actual name.
