Is the AR-23E Liberator Concussive Worth It?

No Better Than The Regular Liberator

Tier Rating C Tier C Tier

The Concussive variant is no better than a regular Liberator. This weapon is also not worth getting as it is behind a pay wall of the Premium Warbond but performs not nearly as good as the weapons of the regular warbond. It's supposed to act in a similar fashion as the Plas-1 Scorcher, but fails to deliver on this premise.
