ECC Thunder (Heavy Gun)
The ECC Thunder is essentially a massive shotgun and is best used in close range combat. Despite a maximum range of 500m, an optimum range would be about 200m or less, due to the spread of the bullets. Below 200m an ECC Thunder can quickly eliminate or at the least maim a heavy robot. The ECC Thunder is especially effective against heavy robots due to their large hit area, which allows more of the shell fragments to hit.
Even at low levels, the Thunder is a force to be reckoned with, but when upgraded to higher levels it can do appreciable damage from even 300m. With a fire rate of 1 RPS and the ability to reload while firing, it can do very heavy damage in a brief amount of time.
However, because the robot must get close to an enemy to do significant damage, it will be vulnerable to enemy fire at longer distances. Therefore, it is vital to take advantage of cover as much as possible to minimize damage while getting into a good engagement range.
Because the ECC Thunder is a close-range gun, it is most commonly seen on fast moving medium robots since they can quickly close range. However, it is not uncommon to see Thunders equipped on heavy robots like the Leo or Natasha for use as heavily armored shotgun platforms which have the staying power to hold off multiple enemy robots. Even though heavier robots generally have more HP and power, they also tend to have much lower movement speeds. This makes closing distances to actually do damage a problem.
