Lore

“

Designed for personal defense, the Prowler Burst PDW was an essential firearm for Pilots whose Titans were compromised during battle. Its compact shape gives it the punch of an assault rifle at a much smaller size, and its burst-action design allows the operator to lay down significant cover-fire - this was particularly helpful for Pilots ejecting from their Titans. It can also be upgraded to a full-auto mode that allows the operator to put heavy fire down-range with the effective accuracy of an assault rifle.

Skins

There are a total of 98 skins for the Prowler Burst PDW: 27 Legendary, 18 Epic, 37 Rare, and 16 Common.
