Shockfield. 8 clicks isn't very hard. Go on the striker fan page. They do 10. It takes much more physical damage to do the same damage as energy so even if they were closed to the same, it would still be worse. Can spread damage among zombies easier with a cone of ten pellets 8 times a second, where you please. Unless there is a midnight zombie conga line all the way to the end, you will run into scattered zombies. maybe a shambler here and a runner there. shooting single zombies you can get what 5 cause its low fire rate. If their shamblers and stalkers you would be lucky to cause 5,000 damage. There is something definetly wrong with the math too. I wondered how in the world the sublight came close to shockfield. pierce is potential damage like critical. Its nice to have to combat mobs but its not real damage. Really each shot is ten pellets and can pierce three. even just a couple units in deadly and you can kill 30 every shot. Never happen with sublight. low rate of fire with high damage and you normally shoot a couple zombies and over kill them. I havent used the sub in a long time. Its heavy, slow, and is only usefull in certain situations where a real sniper would be better. It was a neat trick throwing pierce in there to make it look better though. Real comparison is 320x10x5 =  16000 and 1550x5 = 7750. my 4** red sublight 12475 stopped being usefull welll, soon after i got it, cause i got a 10** hard thorn 28288 Then a 5*** mixmaster 17441 Tempest 31539. You should get full 10 pierce augment too. you could get a huge fake damage increase. would be killing 14 zombies each shot.
