Barrier Rifle

The Barrier Rifle is a Special weapon introduced in the 10.6.0 update. It is the first form of the Barrier Rifle.

Appearance
It's a minigun-shaped weapon, It has light-brownish, metal and yellow scheme. It has the blue tube as the 'accelerator' and the clip is simply a blue battery. A rotating, thin disk is on the gun's body.

Strategy
It has high damage, high rate of fire, medium capacity, and decent mobility.

Tips

 * Its projectiles can be used to destroy other projectiles. (eg. rockets)
 * Its performance is poor against players since it's used to destroy any solid projectiles (except for bullets and other hit-scan weapons) found in the game.
 * Because it has piercing shots, it can be used for crowd control.Screenshot 2016-09-05-13-37-18-1.png
