Why does the hemlok exist?
Hemlok and other guns that are just useless, no one uses them, why keep them in the game? Seriously?

- @dSKyNafinchin And this is the nerfed version of it. I still have nightmares of season 7/8 Hemlok/Mastiff Legends (S7 was also the 2-tap Mastiff). LOL.
- @Cheese9Man Straight up! I honestly don't know which was more annoying to be killed by... pre-nerf Hemmy, or that ridiculous Mastiff XD The Hemlock is most definitely still a perfectly viable weapon though. I actually prefer it over the Flatline! My heavy weapon preference would probably be Rampage>Hemlock>Prowler>Flatline>Repeater>Stupid Wingman that I miss every shot with
@dioangel The hemlok is only a trash weapon if you're trash with it.
I'm also trash with it so you're not alone. 😛
- @dioangel Agree, but something's gotta be at the bottom of the meta.
- @dioangel I used to hate burst weapons in FPS until I picked up the Hemi! It has easily controllable recoil, hits hard & it's accurate. It has a better single fire mode than the 301. Just cuz you can't use it, doesn't mean it's useless lol.
- I used to use Hemlock as a secondary and hate Flatline back in the day, up until anvil receiver arrived and then I cheated on Hemy and fell in love with Flatty instead. :D
Flatline is the easiest cqc weapon, good in mid range of you can handle it. And absolutely the best choice for Arena 👍 There’s a lot of praises for the Hemlok here including some from me but let’s not forget that the Hemlok also has a hideous iron sight. It’s like looking through a needle. LOL! But give me a 2x bruiser, it will rip enemies apart in mid range.
- @Cheese9Man 100%, possibly the worst iron sight in the game!
- @dSKyNafinchin Confirmed!
Try to practice the recoil from different ranges, if you can headshot with the entire burst you can 2 shot people.
If people stand still, you can shred entire teams. Harder to use on moving targets but with some practice it is awesome.
