No it was not just named something that it wasn't, it was on the vendor of the best weaponsmith on the galaxy (IMO and many others) but I couldn't verify anything at the time cause she was AFK. It was not a grenade, and why would something called a "Cannon" be like grenades where you have to throw them.

I'm with Miharu. The lack of a basic Light Machine Gun variant is such a huge oversight as to be embarrassing.

Thats a joke that some servers get the gallinorian rainbow gemstone to make the heavy particle cannon while others dont. This is becomming a joke!!

I have Heavy Weapon Support IV, and I am pleased to say that I have 90% accuracy with the particle cannon, and about 5 second delay

Furtin how much damage dose it do and how long to fire? (a.k.a. damage per second)
The FWG5 I have now nearly averages 50 points of heat damage per second. I solo big creatures all the time. In ten seconds thats 500 points of damage on the average. If I use my specials then your talking a whole lot of damage goin on. I can get a warning shot off every 2 seconds if I wish. On slow creatures I fire a warning shot it runs off and I go in the other direction, then pound on it for several seconds until it gets close and then do it again.
Now that I have reached commando, I think I should have climbed the bounty hunter tree instead.

I don't have too much experience with this one yet other than it uses a bit of resource and was a pain to make (especially since I didn't have a factory yet)
. I did one custom for someone last night and it came out having something like 30 uses, radius of 6m, something like 1094-3004 damage, and a speed in the low 5's. I am curious to see how it performs.

hpc is a commando's only longrange weapon (other than the rocket launcher since the other heavy support weapons are kind of bad compared to these two weapons) unless you take up pistoleer so to me it is a good choice.
