pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB): "Precision frame autos are supposedly very strong (according to Mercules904). While I have my reservations, the Seventh Seraph Carbine might prove me wrong. Dynamic sway reduction to remove bloom and rangefinder will be the go-to combo. Reconstruction, while niche, will be useful in longer gunfights or 1vX situations. Elemental capacitor will be decent in bringing up some lower stats, depending on your subclass of choice." Recommended MW - Range.

pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "I don’t know what it is about this weapon but I could never get behind it. Maybe the second iteration will change that. Reconstruction and frenzy are the absolute best perks to look for. Being able to passively double your magazine and have a damage bonus all while the weapon is stowed is too good to pass up."

What these Seventh Seraph Carbine perks do

Reconstruction

Every 6 seconds while not firing the weapon: Loads 25% of the Magazine Capacity (rounded up) into the Magazine from reserves. Can overfill the Magazine up to double the normal capacity. Works even while stowed.

Frenzy

After being in Combat for 12 seconds: Grants 15% increased damage, 100 Handling, and 100 Reload Speed for 7.2 seconds. Works and can activate while stowed. Dealing and receiving damage refreshes the buff duration. For Frenzy, being in Combat is defined as having either dealt or received damage within the last 5 seconds. Self-damage and environmental damage do not count.

Fourth Time's the Charm

Scoring 4 Precision Hits within 2 seconds of each refills 2 Ammo into the Magazine from thin air. Cannot load the Magazine beyond its base capacity. Precision Hit counter persists through stow.

Swashbuckler

Weapon Kills grant a Stack of 'Swashbuckler' for 4.5 seconds. Maximum of 5 Stacks. (Glaive) Melee Kills grant all 5 Stacks instantly. Damage increase at 1|2|3|4|5 Stacks: 6.7% | 13.3% | 20% | 26.6% | 33.3% Stowing the weapon removes the buff.

Target Lock

Successive Hits within 0.2 seconds of each grant a ramping Damage Buff after scoring 12.5% of the Magazine Capacity as hits. Missing deactivates the buff. Stacks displayed on-screen are only visual aides, the buff ramps up with each shot once active. Reaches maximum strength at 5 Stacks. % of the Magazine Capacity as Hits required for each Visual Stack: 12.5%|35.5%|54.5%|74.5%|110.33% Damage Buff ramps up from 16.73% [10.46%] to 40% [25%] upon reaching maximum strength. Assuming no missed shots, it provides roughly a 25% [15.85%] Damage Buff on average after firing 100% of the Magazine Capacity.
