Ouroboros

The  is a Backup weapon introduced in the 16.5.0 update. It can be obtained for a limited time as part of the Trader's Van event in the armory.

Appearance
It appears as a curved black/orange dragon with orange spines, a black grip, a blue lever, a dark grey tail, and a black head with a fiery projectile in its mouth.

When reloading, the weapon will create a defensive radius on the ground around the user, damaging any enemy that is within the radius.

Tips

 * It is a three-shot kill to most players, making it a very versatile backup weapon.
 * Use it in close-medium ranges.
 * When used with precision and skill, it can kill about any player, including the well-armored ones.
 * Take advantage of the weapon's Burning attribute on players, since the enemy will be damaged overtime if shot.
 * One can use the fiery radius when reloading as a means of defense.
 * In addition, it can also be used to counter charging melee users.
 * Jump while reloading since the damage radius is created around the feet of the user.

Counters

 * Pick off the user at long range.
 * Area damage and shotguns make quick work of users.
 * Strafe while jumping to minimize the damage from the weapon.
 * Like most Backup weapons, being at farther ranges is effective for minimizing the chances of being hit.
 * Flank around the user then use a melee weapon to deal quick damage and then pull back.
 * Avoid getting too close to the user when they are reloading, since the defense radius could potentially kill.
