Midseason 3 Patch Notes - Weapon Balance
This update brings mixed buffs and nerfs across weapons. DS20 Mirage and MXR-17 are buffed with better range, damage, and velocity, while MK35 ISR is nerfed in mid/long range and multipliers. Voyak KT-3 loses close damage but gains range consistency. MPC-25 is stronger with more damage and less recoil, Razor 9mm is weaker, and Sturmwolf 45 gets faster ADS. LMGs improve in range and control, and VS Recon gains faster ADS and higher bullet velocity.
