Manta

The Manta is a versatile submachine gun capable up close and at long range.

"An SMG with a small profile and 3 fire modes. Can attach red dot sights."

Gameplay details

The Manta is equipped by pushing the Front Item or Back Item keybind, assigned to the number one key (1) and the number two key (2) respectively. Fire1, left click, will fire the weapon. Fire2, right click, will aim down sights. Reload, R, will put in a fresh magazine if there is any spare ammo. Using FireMode with the X key will cycle between semi-automatic, two shot burst fire, and fully automatic fire.

It has 30 rounds when fully loaded. Lying down, crouching, and standing have progressively higher recoil. The manta will not sway at all while aiming down sights when above 60 energy. Firing only one or two shots at a time will return the Manta to the spot originally aimed at.

Can equip a red dot sight that enables a focused zoom.

Cannot be used on ladders and in water.
