Provolowned

The Provolowned is a primary weapon for the Heavy class, being released during the first week of v1.3.1. It is a re-texture of the Beebeegun. It also features a considerable wind up time due to the barrel needing to spin faster than other miniguns. Despite these disadvantages, the weapon's high damage output is not to be underestimated.

Usage
Like all automatic weapons, the Provolowned is capable of dealing constant, consistent damage as long as the weapon is aimed and fired at an enemy. Being a minigun, the Provolowned features "wind up" and "wind down" delays, in which the barrel of the gun rotates in preparation for fire or cease fire. Unlike other miniguns, where the wind up is barely noticeable, the wind up of the Provolowned is quite long and can be a great hinderance if unprepared. To overcome this, it is advised that players continuously tap the fire or double tap (depending on settings) to keep the barrel spinning and reduce the wind up time. The Provolowned deals 7.5 damage per bullet and is capable of dealing 60 damage per second without the use of equipment or Propbearganda.

The Provolowned usually falls short when it comes to consistent accuracy and has a moderate spread to its bullets. Because of this, it is advised that players attack from mid to close for the most effective offense. Because of its excessive wind up and the general difficultly associated with overcoming it effectively, it is advised that newer players stick with more staple miniguns such as the Electric Honey (BBG) and Beebeegun. Despite this, if the Provolowned is harnessed correctly, it can be lethal.
