Weapon LoadoutsEdit
- See Category:Akbronco Prime Build to see how players mod this weapon.
- See Category:Akbronco Prime Guides for guides on how to use this weapon effectively.
- For more general help with weapons, you may wish to browse Category:Weapon Guides.
TipsEdit
- Weapon's spread cone can be shrunken by zooming in.
- Quickdraw or Stunning Speed is a must to compensate the slow reload speed of the Akbronco Prime, in order to maintain a decent DPS.
- Using a maxed Seeker mod is recommended to upgrade its status spreading capability.
NotesEdit
- The damage is actually a combination of all the pellets' damage values; the actual damage per pellet is 40 Impact, 5 Puncture and 5 Slash.
- Like many of the older weapons, during a reload the Akbronco Prime's clip will be reloaded before the reload animation is actually finished; if the reload is almost finished, the animation can be interrupted (by player or by enemy) and the weapon will still be reloaded. The point where the clip is reloaded occurs about 3/4's of the way through the animation.
TriviaEdit
- The Akbronco Prime is the first primed dual secondary.
- Unlike most segregated akimbo secondaries, the Akbronco Prime can be crafted without an Orokin Cell, and is instead replaced by an Orokin link of some kind.
- 20 Orokin Cells are needed for crafting 2 Bronco Primes, however.
- The Akbronco Prime's gold parts can be recolored as of Update 15.13.

Patch HistoryEdit
Update 27.2
- Greater than 100% Status having meaning
Shotguns have a unique Role here based on a very patch-work history with how they interact with Status Chance. A Shotgun that shoots 99% Status Chance would give you 35% (roughly) status per pellet. 100% Status Gives you 100% Status per pellet. This huge jump in performance happens with just a 1% gain - why? Well, to answer that we have to look at our choice to make what the UI conveys reality. It would feel broken to shoot a Shotgun with 100% Status and not see a perfect spread of Effects. In reality, to make Status consistent we have to treat Shotguns as a special case.
Shotguns as a special case means we have buffed the Status Chance of all Shotguns by x3 or greater. The UI now behaves to show the reality that you are determining Status Chance per pellet.
- (Undocumented) Status chance per projectile increased from 4.2857142857143% to 12.857142857143%.
- Mastery Rank decreased from 11 to 10.
- Critical chance increased from 2.5% to 6%.
- Fire rate decreased from 5.5 to 4.33. (unlisted)
- Restored AkBronco Prime status chance back to original 30%.
- Adjusted the AkBronco Prime’s Impact, Puncture, and Slash damage to match the Bronco Prime.
- Increased AkBronco Prime’s magazine size from 6 to 8.
- Decreased AkBronco Prime’s fire rate from 8.33 to 5.5.
- Fixed Bronco Prime and Akbronco Prime having switched Mastery Ranks.
- Damage increased from 20 to 50.
- Damage fall off added starting from 9m and ending at 18 with a minimum damage of 13.
- Mastery Rank 11 required.
- Introduced.

Akbronco Prime's magazine problem...

Why is it that a single Bronco prime has 4 shots in the mag, but the Akimbo variant has 6? Is there a reason behind it or does someone at DE ... -
My guess is it's a 3 round magazine and one in the chamber. If that was the case it might be awkward to reload the chamber one handed....
