hammer shot slows cos it applies the plasma cell dot, which has a chace to apply during any attack.
my normal rotation is:
1. Assault plastique
2. Incidenary round
3. HiB
4. Full Auto
5. HiB (if Procced)
6. Tech override/Reserve powercell/Plasma grenade (use RP here because Plasma grenade costs 4 ammo)
7. Hammer Shot
I dont tend to use charged bolts, because:
1. Can be interrupted
2. Single hit, whereas hammer shot is 3 hits so higher chance of plasma cell gettin applied
3. Costs ammo
