well, the speed mods you get don't work, accuracy mods are split (the mods you get at novice don't stack with the mods you get in the HAR tree) and may not work. The weapon itself isn't as good damage-wise as a flamethrower, has no AP value. Besides that I don't know of any bugs on it.....not many people use it and it's just not as good as a flamethrower

everything mentioned above.



Acid rifle is slower,and does less damage. It does acid damage (which sounds cool but all the 'common' armors liike ubese, padded, and chitin have acid resists, while ubese and chitin DON'T have heat). Despite the fact that it does less damage it has almost double the HAM costs for special moves. It's also got a higher penalty for long ranges than the flamethrower.



Despite all that, it costs MORE heavy weapons experience to get the training in acid rifle thn it does the flame thrower.



The ONLY advantage to having an acid rifle (other the being the only person that has one) is it's wound chance is higher.



While I may not have listed any bugs, these are just a few more reasons nobody uses them in battle.

I use my acid rifle alot...on Endor I run into heat resistant mobs so I pull out the acid rifle after setting them ablaze...it works better than the FT when they have 60+ flame resist

on the up-side.. it's not as graphic-intense as the flamethrower.

which if you have a low-to-mid ranged computer, is a very good thing.

The HAR is missing animations for its cone attacks and as stated above speed never improves no dot and its the only acid based weapon with ap 0 .......did I mention the graphics are crap...........because the graphics are you know..............crap and your better off useing a flame thrower on rancors even with 100% the dot kills them faster then HAR ever will.
