ARC Raiders - Weapon Guide: The Torrente (Fully-Automatic Light Machine Gun)
Overview
The Torrente is a robust fully-automatic Light Machine Gun (LMG) chambered in Medium Ammo, engineered for sustained suppressive fire and area denial. As a blueprint-locked weapon requiring advanced mechanical components, it serves as a premier endgame firearm for Raiders who excel in controlling engagements through volume of fire. With upgrades that significantly increase magazine capacity and reduce reload time, the Torrente evolves into a relentless force capable of overwhelming ARC forces and dominating defensive positions.

Combat Notes
Suppressive Fire: Use the Torrente to pin enemies, control lanes, and create openings for teammates.
Magazine Management: Upgraded capacity allows for extended firing sequences—time reloads during lulls in combat.
Mobility Trade-off: LMGs typically reduce movement speed; position strategically and use cover effectively.
