Strategy Guide[]
- Slone's Burst Assault Rifle has very high DPS and incredible accuracy for a bloom-based weapon. Use this to quickly kill an enemy in close-to-long ranged combat.
- At very long range, Slone's Burst Assault Rifle has a higher chance of missing the second shot of the burst, counteract this by standing still and using first shot accuracy, as this weapon resets it's first shot accuracy with each shot of the burst. Stick to mid- and close-range for the easiest use however.
- Slone's Assault Rifle's increased firing rate over other Burst Assault Rifles makes it incredible for pressuring players or spraying them, it easily competes with other Mythic Assault Rifles.
- The accuracy and quick burst damage potential gives Slone's Burst Assault Rifle the edge in specific circumstances, such as when the enemy only peeks out for brief periods of time.
Weapon ID[]
Slone's Burst Assault Rifle is referred to as Assault Semi Auto in the files.

Trivia[]
- Slone's Burst Assault Rifle replaced Slone's Pulse Rifle, as the Pulse Rifle was vaulted in Update v18.00.
- Slone's Burst Assault Rifle is the second Mythic version of the Burst Assault Rifle, the first being Ocean's Burst Assault Rifle.
- It is also the only version of the Burst Assault Rifle that resets first shot accuracy after every subsequent burst while spraying, as both the regular Burst Assault Rifle and the Ocean's Burst Assault Rifle no longer do the same.
- Strangely, the weapon is a 2 round burst, but has 21 bullets in its magazine, meaning it will always fire only one shot on its last burst before reloading.
- Firing the rifle with 1 round remaining in the mag will still play 2 firing sounds.
