Talk:N-23 TYPHOON/@comment-47280457-20201030050703

Ok. You got everything wrong. As a rank 150 (with help from rachjumper) whose had Typhoon for almost a year now, I can tell you guys the actual statistics.

-Rarity: Exotic

-Range: Close, shorter than Flak cannon but longer than Eviscerator. I believe it can shoot as far as Flak cannon if not longer, but the spread makes it extremely hard to get any decent damage at this distance.

-Damage: Typhoon shoots in 3 very quick bursts, doing up to 150 damage on a direct hit, and 50 damage each burst. Using typhoon is significantly harder than using Eviscerator as it takes more than 1 shot to kill.

-Ammo: Typhoon has 4 shots before overheating if you shoot all of them at once. Reload time is on the longer side of close range weapons, maybe a bit shorter than Eviscerator but certainly much longer than Plasma Knife or Tri-shot.

-Summary: All in all, Typhoon is not the best weapon. It's good in conquest modes such as King of the hill or Capital strike, good in enclosed maps like Horizon or Nightfall 2183 however it is extremely bad in mech modes such as Mechanized assault or Juggernauts, as it doesn't do enough damage to be effective against the mechs. Even then, Eviscerator beats it in pretty much every field except for fire rate, so instead of Typhoon a much better choice would be Eviscerator, or Plasma sword if you have it unlocked.

I'm sorry to anyone who thought Typhoon was as good as the person who wrote this made it to be, but it really isn't a good choice as your main weapon. Having hard counters of Cobra, Cain, Ladon (carpet bombing loadout only), Particle beam salvo, Particle beam, Eviscerator, Plasma sword, Plasma odachi, Plasma axe, and Tri-shot makes it exceptionally weak in battle, so unless you know how to use it properly you aren't going to get anywhere with it.
