The Gift Stitcher is a Primary weapon introduced in the 15.7.0 update. It can be obtained for a limited time during the Christmas holidays in the Armory.
Description
It is a Christmas themed weapon that shoots a circular wavelength, but with a limited distance. It has good damage, a slow fire rate, a good capacity and a good mobility.
Appearance
It is an energy based weapon that’s mostly blue with grey and yellow details. The model of it is close to the Toxic Bane, but modified.
Performance
The weapon shoots a circular wavelength with a spread like a shotgun. It has limited distance, so it performs best at close range. It deals substantial damage and features a good ammo capacity, but suffers from a slow fire rate and reload speed. This weapon is very deadly in close range as it can 1-2 shot players in close range. It’s possible to get a long range kill with this, but the player won’t deal that much damage since it’s a shotgun.
When reloading, the clip from the top is taken out and is replaced by another one. It has no delay mechanics.

Counters
- Pick off users with long ranged weapons such as the Anti-Champion Rifle.
- Strafe around the enemy as the fire rate is quite slow.
