Renegade in ARC Raiders
The Renegade is a lever-action battle rifle firing Medium Ammo. With 35 damage, a 2.25x headshot multiplier and 68.8 range, it dominates the mid-to-long bracket most firefights actually happen in. The lever action enforces pacing, but each shot matters — and 8 rounds is plenty when two headshots down a Raider.
