TRAC is useful with a tracking program, as you can tag a fleeing suspect and pinpoint them for a fairly long time. This turns your revolver into more of a utility tool, rather than a weapon to actually defend yourself. Hot Shot, on the other hand, WILL kill people, as it does brute equal to the burn damage a laser gun does, while also setting any targets on fire immediately. Combined with the spam-y nature of the revolver, any target of Hot Shot is likely to die and husk from burn, unless they have robust fire resistance or immunity. Iceblox is much the same, but it significantly slows people down, rather than set them alight. Note that cold damage is equally capable of husking, as it deals burn damage, too. | TRAC is useful with a tracking program, as you can tag a fleeing suspect and pinpoint them for a fairly long time.
