"Thermal SMG. The T7 shoots white hot thermal rounds designed to cause maximum trauma to soft targets."

―Official Description

The RIA T7 is a SMG in SAS: Zombie Assault 4 that deals Thermal damage. It is very effective against almost anything due to its burning effect and high rate of fire. The damage and after-burning effects of the version make the T7 even better, as well as a safe, excellent weapon choice from a distance for eliminating zombies that are hard to kill and deal high damage, such as Bloaters. On the downside however, its pierce is only 1 and has a wide spread shot if used from a distance which limits it in crowd-control.

The version is also effective for eliminating non-moving targets such as purge nests. Tenacious is needed for this to be any better than other weapons in order for this to happen as to stand out with it's decent fire rate and damage, extra damage over time is needed. The damage over time is slightly higher (by 10) than the direct damage so it would be better in the long run (2 seconds) for the normal version; however, in the version, the difference no longer exists, making Deadly as useful as Tenacious.

Design

RIA T7 is a variant of RIA 7 with a shorter magazine (possibly due to its cartridge) & a compensator. As a thermal weapon made by Rubicon, it has a red glowing stripe.

Build info

It is not recommended that you in any way invest in augmentations for the RIA T7 due to it's poor viability in the meta, however if you do wish to augment then the best augments would be tenacious/adaptive/capacity/overclocked (If you have a fourth augment slot)

Trivia

• Like the RIA 20 Striker and the RIA T40, it has red stripes on the magazine.

• The RIA T7s and standard variant has red colored stripes from the magazine but it turn black in the variant of the T7.

• Since there is a variant of this gun, the RIA 7 (that does physical damage), the "T" in RIA T7 most likely means "Thermal".
  • This occurs with the RIA T40 and RIA 40.

• The Template-DONT-SPAWN has the appearance of the RIA T7 on the weapons screen.
• The RIA T7 received an "Easter Edition" around Easter (March 28th) 2016. It was called the Peter's Hottentail, and replaced the RIA T7 from strongboxes and crafting. Its description was "You're telling a fib. And every time you tell a fib, your left ear droops."
