The Hind is a Grineer rifle used by their Elite Lancers. It fires five-round bursts while maintaining a low recoil allowing all rounds fired to land very close to one another, but has poor critical stats. Pressing Alternate Fire shoots single rounds with higher damage per bullet.

Characteristics[]

This weapon primarily deals DmgSlashSmall64 Slash damage.

Advantages:

  • High DmgSlashSmall64 Slash damage – effective against health and shields (although DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture and DmgImpactSmall64 Impact is much better against the respective damage classes).
  • High accuracy.
  • Large magazine size.
  • Highest number of shots per burst out of all burst-fire rifles.
  • Burst-fire has low recoil.
  • Innate Madurai Pol Polarity.
  • Can use the Hind-exclusive Mod TT 20px Final Tap mod.

Disadvantages:

  • Low DmgImpactSmall64 Impact and DmgPunctureSmall64 Puncture.
  • Semi-auto fire has the second lowest fire rate of all semi-auto rifles, after Grinlok Grinlok.
  • Linearly less efficient – sometimes a target may only die with six bullets, which requires an entire second burst to be fired. However, this can be circumvented by using the semi-auto single shot.


Tips[]

  • New players who prefer burst fire but cannot afford this weapon's heavy building cost should stick with the Burston Burston until they have enough resources.

Trivia[]

  • The Hind is one of the Grineer weapons to be showcased in the Chemical Lab.
  • The Hind's magazine is a small helical magazine that is inserted under the barrel.
  • The Hind probably gets its name from the NATO reporting name for the famous Mil Mi-24 helicopter gunship/troop transport. Other probable sources of the weapon's name include:
  • In the Warframe community, the Hind is nicknamed as "the Baguette" because of its shape closely resembling a loaf.
