Description
"An experimental firearm developed by Genesis Corp. Allows to partially ignore target's armor."
Armor Piercing level 1
It ignores 70% of the target's armor.
This may be a new firearm that the player can use in the game. Plus, it may be an efficient weapon against The Big One, who has 300 armor (94.74% damage reduction); the effect will be equal to an enemy with only 90 armor (84.34% damage reduction) or a total of around +197% damage dealt (roughly x3 of your normal damage).
Obtaining
- In the Port Laboratory's storage crates A and B.
- Season rewards after completing tasks.
- Sunken box (only when reputation level is high enough)
- In-Game Shop's Gunsmith's crate and Heavy equipment
- Buying Spring Season Pack In-Game Shop
Recycling
On the Recycler, a The Equalizer can be recycled into Spring, Factory Parts, and Carbon Composite in 1 hour at an appropriate level of Firearms recycling skill.
Trivia
- Introduced in Beta v.1.17.6
- First Bullpup firearm in game
- The Equalizer resembles the IWI Tavor design
- The calculation of armor penetration is based from killing The Blind One dealing 4 and 10 damage for each stance which are 73% and 35% damage reduction against 15 damage; these are achieved when it's 45 and 9 armor therefore it's 70% armor penetration -> 150 - 150*70% = 45 & 30 - 30*70% = 9.
- Another combination expected are: 11 & 5, 10 & 5, 9 & 4, and 9 & 3 which pertains to 80%, 75, 66.67%, and 60% armor penetrations, respectively, but they are found out to be incorrect.
