Prelude in Violet/Weapons/TRW LMR

The TRW LMR, also known as the Low Maintenance Rifle or LMR, is an assault rifle featured in Prelude in Violet and is only obtainable through the Mystery Box. The LMR is an odd-looking weapon that boasts a heavy punch and good accuracy, but is hampered by its somewhat hefty recoil, slow rate of fire, and sub-par stopping power. By appearances, the LMR looks similar to the FG-42 which has caused some confusion. When Pack-a-Punched, the LMR transforms into the "TL;DR H8R".

Usage
Unlike other assault rifles, the LMR is known for it's slow rate of fire at only 450 RPM. This makes the weapon much easier to control when firing in bursts or single shot and, once paired with its already high accuracy, makes it one of the most accurate weapons available outside of sniper rifles. It is also amongst the most powerful amongst assault rifles, almost rivaling the damage of the weakest battle rifles. With this accuracy and high damage, along with its high reserve ammo count, the weapon is a good choice for players who aren't worried about point gain in the higher rounds.

The LMR suffers from several detracting factors, mainly its recoil, penetration, reload speed, and aforementioned rate of fire. As it has one of the slowest fire rates amongst weapons in Prelude in Violet, the LMR cannot easily deal with large swarms of enemies. This, paired with its unruly recoil, makes the weapon more susceptible to wasting ammo in dire situations. On top of this, the LMR's rather weak stopping power makes it unable to deal damage to enemies through most materials, including other enemies. The added slow reload of 3.9 seconds requires that perks be purchased if the player decides to use it as a holdout weapon.
