Tips[]
- When fighting at long range, consider firing the Braton Prime in short bursts, or charge the enemy to gain ground. The ammo saved from avoiding long range fighting can compensate for damage sustained in melee/short ranged combat.
- A higher pitch firing sound can be heard when the current magazine is nearly out of ammo.
