GFVerse.info - Saiga-12

Overview

Saiga-12 is another offensively oriented SG. While her defensive stats include an above average 23 Armor and 1320 HP, her 29 Damage sits at the lower end of SGs, an unfortunate but minor drawback considering her damage-oriented Skill.

Backing up those numbers are Saiga’s Buff Tiles, covering the entire back row for 15% Damage. While not the highest possible Damage buff from an SG, Saiga’s Tiles are far more flexible than other offensive SGs like AA-12 or USAS-12, working well in both 2MG and 3MG formations.

Saiga’s Skill, Big Antelopes Horn, puts her in contention for the highest DPS amongst SGs, thanks to the increasing Damage Multiplier across the three hits: 1.5x/2.5x/3.5x.

These shots have a fixed, rapid Rate of Fire.

They also do not consume Ammo, meaning that Saiga’s Skill can activate while she is reloading if Commanders shuffle her back and forth quickly to force Skill activation, but they also lack the innate knockback potential of SG attacks and are unaffected by Slugs in any way.

Overall, Saiga-12 is a potent addition to the armory of any Commander. Able to hold her own defensively, dish out above average DPS, and buff the MG backline to a sizable degree, Saiga will make an immediate impact for those who choose to use her.
