Re-read the notes, and now I am less sure. Hmm, its not really clear. Not a great description of what the changes are going to be exactly. We will just have to wait and see, I guess. Maybe its going to handle like a Monty Carlo normally, and handle like the Atheon's Epilogue when close to enemies? I hope the rounds still hit at normal impact... well, we will see.

They did, if I'm not mistaken. It said that the damage per bullet would be offset to the high rate of fire AR archetype. I think (hope) that means that it will stay in the current archetype while the rate of fire gets boosted to the highest rate of fire archetype. You got the low rate of fire ARs: Suros. The Medium Rate of fire ones: Red Spectre. The high rate of fire ones like the Fabian, Zhalo, and Monty Carlo. And then the highest rate of fire ones such as the Atheons Epilogue and the Necrochasm. It sounded to me that the bullet damage would stay in the high RoF family while the rate of fire jumped to the highest RoF family. ...I hope I'm right, because yea. No where in the Front Lines perk does it describe that the rounds hit any softer, only that they get fired faster.
