Gameplay Overview
The LMG is typically equipped by raiders (bar tribals) in the mid-late game, but can also be purchased for relative inexpense, or crafted at a machining table. It has the longest burst out of any standard weapon in the game (bar the Minigun and Heavy Charge Blaster), which is shot at a moderate rate. The primary downside to the LMG is its poor accuracy, which makes it fall behind the Charge Rifle in most scenarios in terms of overall damage output - but the LMG can pull ahead against larger foes, or indeed at higher quality levels, or in the hands of a shooter with a pair of bionic eyes and/or consciousness-boosting drugs such as Luciferium or Go-juice (the former further boosting sight).
If one is equipped with an Excellent quality or better LMG and has bionic eyes and/or arms and on the aforementioned drugs; you'll have a very dangerous shooter in your hands. LMGs are well-supplemented by a few Survival Rifles as Survival Rifles can pick off enemies at longer range, or more accurately - while the LMGs shred those that are closer.
