• Like all weapons in the Pathfinder Elite Weapons Set, the Pioneer is not available above Rank V.
• The Pathfinder Pioneer fires in 3 round bursts.
• Despite being classified as a Rare weapon, the Pioneer only has 2 augmentation slots.

Bugs

• In the development menu, all iterations of the Pioneer will be found grouped together in the Rank I area.
• The game incorrectly flags the Pioneer as fully automatic, preventing the Automatic Fire System augmentation from being applied to it.
