# Explain why it's good for the game
As of the moment the tranq pistol bullet does more actual damage than
stun damage, and can kill a marine in 3-4 shots, which is as many as
needed for the stun to trigger anyway.

//2020 rebalance: is supposed to counter runners and lurkers, dealing high damage to the only castes with no armor.
//Limited by its lack of versatility and lower supply, so marines finally have an answer for flanker castes that isn't just buckshot.
