====== Pain Saw ====== ^ 212Z Electric Chainsaw (Pain Saw) ^ | {{http://www.tremwiki.com/_media/painsaw.jpg}} | | **Damage Per Shot:** 15 points/buzz \\ **Shot Type:** Melee \\ **Shot Speed:** Instantaneous \\ **Rate of Fire:** 75 millisecs, approx 13 buzz/sec| | **Magazine Size:** Infinite \\ **Reserve Magazines:** N/A| | **Cost:** 100c| | **Excels Against** \\ Defenseless Structures \\ Occupied Aliens \\ Aliens in Confined Spaces (e.g. vents)| ====Uses==== Dealing 200 damage per second, the **Pain Saw** is one of the most powerful weapons in the [[:Human Team|Human]] arsenal. It is almost useless as a main offensive weapon: its effective range is even less than that of the [[:dretch]], and by the time the user gets close enough to deal damage, he will most likely have already been killed. However, the weapon's bottomless clip greatly reduces base reliance, allowing a painsawer to spend as much time in the field as his health allows. Additionally, the Pain Saw excels at the destruction of specific Alien buildings, such as the [[:Overmind]]. Armed additionally with a [[Grenade]], a human can initiate a [[:Human tactics#the art of saw rushing|Pain Saw Rush]], which can potentially be extremely devastating to the [[:Alien team]]. The Pain Saw also excels in confined spaces like [[:vent|vents]], where the user can simply charge headlong into any enemies and kill them practically instantly. ====Pros==== * Cheapest purchasable weapon. * Second highest damage per second rating of any human weapon. * Infinite ammunition. ====Cons==== * Extremely short range. * Easy to dodge. * Loud, even when idling. (It is often best to keep one's blaster out instead of the Pain Saw if Pain Saw Rushing)
