Special Weapon Effects
For the Motherland. – Extremely high reload speed, high Fire Rate.
Usage & Description
The Surkov is a Sniper Rifle hybrid between a Repeating and Semi-Automatic; like Repeating Sniper Rifles, its ordnance has high Critical Hit damage, but it also has a relatively high fire rate, and fast reload. Unfortunately, the Surkov has exceptionally mediocre accuracy for a Sniper Rifle. Because of these traits, the Surkov is best used as a "Combat" Sniper Rifle, and used at medium to close range.
Trivia
- The name is a reference to Mikhail Ilyich Surkov, allegedly a World War 2 Red Army sniper who was said to have over 700 confirmed kills.
- The red text is a reference to Russia, which was nicknamed "The Motherland" during World War 2 just after the German Mass Infiltration, "Operation Barbarossa". The phrase "For the Motherland" (Russian: "Za Rodinu") was a common war cry amongst Soviet soldiers during World War 2.
Mechanics
The Surkov effect comes from the barrel2_Vladof_Surkov barrel, which is based on barrel2, the least accurate barrel available for Sniper Rifles. It provides much better Reload Speed and Fire Rate, as well as generally better stats. For an explanation on how to interpret the information on the following table, please see the stat modifiers page.
