CODEX

The Marelok combines the stopping power of a rifle with the portability of a pistol.

In essence, the Marelok pistol is a shortened  Grinlok that has a higher fire rate, at the cost of lower damage and accuracy, as well as reduced magazine size.

Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily  Impact damage.

Advantages:

• Very high base damage.
  • High  Impact and good  Slash damage – effective against shields and health ( Puncture damage is better against health).
• High reload speed.
• Very good ammunition efficiency.
• Decent fire rate.
• Has a polarity.
• Can use the Marelok-exclusive  Shrapnel Rounds mod.

Disadvantages:

• Inaccuracy is noticeable over long range.
• Low magazine size.
• High recoil.

Comparisons:

•  Marelok (Normal Attack), compared to  Vaykor Marelok (Normal Attack):
  • Higher base damage per projectile (80.00 vs. 73.00)
    • Lower  Impact damage ( 40 vs. 43.8)
    • Higher  Puncture damage ( 8 vs. 7.3)
    • Higher  Slash damage ( 32 vs. 21.9)
  • Higher total damage (80 vs. 73)
  • Higher average damage per tap (80 vs. 73)
  • Higher burst DPS (160 vs. 146)
  • Lower sustained DPS (102.12 vs. 108.95)
  • Smaller magazine (6 vs. 10)
  • Less shots per magazine (6 vs. 10)
  • Smaller max ammo capacity (24 vs. 30)
  • Less polarities ( vs. )
  • Lower Mastery Rank required (7 vs. 10)

• In order to reach the full fire-rate, one must fire the next shot just before the "lever-action" animation is completed.

Notes

• Due to the Marelok's low accuracy, additional bullets generated via Multishot will sometimes hit enemies behind or next to the main target, giving the illusion of Punch Through.

Trivia

• The Marelok is likely named after the Mare's Leg, which refers to a lever-action rifle cut down to the size of a large pistol.
  • Closer inspection reveals that the Marelok is indeed a Grinlok with its barrel and stock cut down to size and its magazine moved to the bottom of the gun.
• The Marelok's description initially misspelled it as Marelock. This was fixed shortly afterward.
• The Marelok is spun around the finger lever after every shot, which was mentioned in Devstream 22 to be a reference to a lever-action shotgun used in the movie Terminator 2. 
• The Marelok was first showcased in Devstream 22 along with the Grinlok. It was supposed to be released alongside the Grinlok and come as a dual/akimbo weapon, but its release was delayed due to the additional coding required to handle the animations involved.
• The color scheme of the Marelok is darker compared to the Grinlok.
• Currently, the only Grineer units that use the Marelok are Shik Tal, and the Kuva Shield Lancer, with the former's Marelok having been modified to fire rockets rather than bullets.
