I've always loved using the Thanatos. Unfortunately, its low base ammo pickup means that its rather difficult to use on higher difficulties aside from being used as a sort of special weapon, reserved exclusively for dealing with specials and bulldozers.
This mod aims to bring the Thanatos more in line with the other snipers, mainly by increasing its ammo pickup to enable it to serve as a reliable primary weapon that can be used throughout a heist without depending upon ammo bags.
Changes:
Total ammo increased from 15 to 20
Rate of fire increased from 40 to 45
Damage reduced from 3500 to 980. Allows for guaranteed one-shots on light and heavy SWATs, along with 1 shot headshot kills on special enemies on DS (barring shields). Bulldozers now require much more shots to kill.
Base ammo pickup increased from 0.05-0.65 to 0.74-1. This change essentially guarantees that you will recieve 1 bullet for every ammo box picked up, provided you've equipped a perk deck with walk-in closet unlocked.
All other stats are __unchanged __
Hopefully this makes the Thanatos a much more viable and fun sniper to play with!
Any feedback is welcome! This is my first ever mod so please let me know what you think!
