-Official description

Overview
Good against: Shamblers, Stalkers, Spitters, Shielders, Bloaters, Worms, large groups of zombies

The CM Gigavolt is a semi automatic assault rifle. It seems to be the weapon that the medic carries. It shoots bolts of energy that upon impact with a wall or zombie, cause electrical arcs that chain to nearby zombies. Essentially a big brother to the Trailblazer dealing the same damage, and both shoot projectiles that take time to reach their target, but Gigavolt has a much bigger clip of 20 rounds, making it more suited for a primary weapon and horde clearing. However, in all other aspects it's stats are worse than the Trailblazer's. For starters, it reduces movement over twice as much (15% to the Trailblazers 6%), a longer reload time (2.5 seconds to the Trailblazers 1.7 seconds), the Gigavolt can fire 10 rounds per second, while the Trailblazer can fire 8 rounds per second. Finally, the ammunition for the Gigavolt is much more expensive, 240$ for 200 rounds ( 960$ for 200 High Damage rounds) while the Trailblazer only costs 90$ for 200 rounds (360$ for 200 High Damage rounds). Just because the Trailblazer surpasses this weapon, however, does not mean it's bad. It absolutely rips through hordes, and bloaters are a breeze because the worms can be easily disposed of, and Shielders cannot block arcing electricity.

Overclocked is recommended for [RED] version as its rps drops to 4 rps.
