Configurations[]

The Tek Shoulder Cannon can be configured, and that configuration will stay even after unequipping. All of these firing modes have trade-offs.

Standard: Standard fire has a wide target scan with a medium range shot, less likely to hit target at longer range. Reloads after every shot.
Rapid: Rapid fire has a massive target scan with with low range shots. Shoots multiple projectiles at a rapid pace, but will overheat quickly.
Overcharge: Overcharge fire has a narrow target scan with a very long range shot. Has the fastest projectile shot like the Tek Railgun , but has a very long reload.
