Rattler in ARC Raiders

The Rattler is a common fully-automatic rifle on Medium Ammo with a respectable 9 damage and Moderate penetration. Its defining flaw is a 12-round base magazine that empties in under 1.5 seconds — upgrades grow it to 24, which is where the weapon finally starts making sense.
