Both Light Weapons
Both with Lockdown Accumulation
Same Reload Time (5 sec)
Magnetar lists much higher damage but doesn't list magazine size or rate of fire.
Anyone have stats on true DPS comparison?
Thanks.

I don't have any stats for you, only impressions, but I use both every day. Magnetar has 100m more range, with a slower ROF, but much better accuracy at range. Practically no spread. Easy to get the lockdown and excellent damage. Shredder dumps a lot of rounds fast, but you need to be a lot closer to get the most out of it as it just spreads more. Still good damage, but a more 'situational' weapon now.

I don't have any links off-hand but it has been shown that Magnetar is much better than Shredder. Higher accuracy, longer range, and DPS almost the same as Pulsar (the medium counterpart).

Magnetar is better, it is not even close. Magnetar does almost as much damage as Pulsar (Sheriff Magnetar is more powerful than normal Pulsar), and Shredder only approaches its damage at the lowest ranges. Magnetar is more expensive, but the severely increased range is definitely with it, plus you can pair it with Pulsar while Shredder has no easy pairing.

I've been running Pulsars since they were releases (first on Hover, then Tyr) and found them decent but not exactly powerful, while Shredders "feel" much more effective. Goes to show impressions don't always match the numbers. I somehow have 8 Sherriff Magnetars kicking around in my inventory. Guess I should start working on them.. |

I thought this forum was directly related to the war robots wiki pages? All the stats of weapons are on the wiki. Great resources there.

This video shows it off well, Magnetar wins at all ranges, including point blank. This was done relatively recently too, so it should be up to date.
