Select Fire - make it available for the Hemlock

★★★ Apprentice

The Select Fire is barely used right now. No one needs it in a Havok because you would rather run a turbocharger in it or go directy for a charge rifle.
Prowler is pretty good with that hopup but hey, honestly, if you're not stumbling upon this weapon and this hopup early in the game, you won't use it. 

But what if the other burst weapon could make use of it too? The Hemlock!
In Titanfall, the Hemlock had a so called Starburst Hopup.

My approach is the following:
- Hemlock without hopup = burst mode or single mode
- Hemlock with hopup = starburst mode or single mode

The starburst makes the Hemlock fire 5 instead of just 3 bullets. This will not only make the Hemlock a much better weapon but also makes the Select Fire much more profitable so more people will carry this hopup with them and this makes the Prowler also better - even if it's just temporary until you find a Hemlock.

@Lausekittel Don't you think they need to do something about the recoil and bulletspread and also lower the damage on the Hemlock if it could use the select fire?
It's really good as it is right now, also the prowler already have the 5 rounds burst you ask for making it Into the weapon you want or?

@Werawulfaz the Hemlock is pretty good in the eraly game. They nerfed the firerate and increased the damage. maybe they have to roll this back to the season 2 variant when introducing starburst/select fire with it.

No one would carry the Hemlock to the final squads. Peacekeeper, R99, Wingman, R301 - that's the meta right now. I think with that option in the game, Hemlock and also Prowler would be seen more often.
