- Explosion has linear damage falloff from 100% to 50% from central impact.
- Explosion range cannot be increased with Firestorm ( Primed) and Amalgam Furax Body Count.

Notes

Alternate Fire mode switching is affected by reload speed mods.
- While this makes it so the weapon will always fire two shots when on charge mode, the weapon will not fire if the magazine has less than 48 rounds, and will reload automatically instead.
  - Tainted Mag gives the weapon enough rounds to fire three shots in charge mode, at the cost of increased reload and switch speed.

Trivia

The Machinist's weapon is identical in appearance to the Ambassador, however theirs functions as a flamethrower rather than a laser assault rifle.
In automatic fire mode, the weapon will become quieter with less reverb once the magazine goes below 48 ammo, as well as the standard sound cue that the magazine is running low.
