The LC2 Lynx is a Terran Republic carbine, effective at close quarters due to its overclocked fire-rate that allows it to shred through infantry at close ranges, supported by its average reloads. It isn't as effective at longer ranges, thanks to its quick damage drop off comparable to that of an SMG and relatively low bullet velocity. Its ADS accuracy is high compared to other carbines, but its COF blooms quickly due to its high ROF. Its recoil pattern, however, is quite predictable and controllable.

Damage with Range:

125 @ 10 meters

112 @ 30 meters

100 @ 50 meters

Optic
HS/NV Scope (1x) 49 OR 30		Nanite Systems' HS/NV scope has no magnification, but provides high contrast outlines to nearby objects and illuminates nearby soldiers.
DMO (3.4x) 49 OR 30		Equipped with a combination chevron/crosshair reticle and 3.4x magnification capabilities, the TR's Designated Marksman Optics functions well at many ranges.
HDS (3.4x) 49 OR 30		Using a red dot reticle with 3.4x optical magnification, the TR's Holographic Dot Sight performs well in close and mid-range combat scenarios.
TMS (4x) 49 OR 30		Sharpshooters have long preferred the Terran Marksman Scope, praising its simple 4x magnified crosshair for its versatility and efficiency.
ACS (4x) 49 OR 30		The Terran Republic's Advanced Combat Scope utilizes a triple chevron reticle and 4x magnification, making it a good choice for all-around use.

Barrel
Flash Suppressor 49 OR 100		A flash suppressor makes the shooter less visible to the enemy, but increases the range at which you appear on enemy minimaps by 15 meters.
Suppressor 49 OR 100		The weapon's muzzle flash and noise generation is reduced, and the player no longer appears on the minimap when firing. In exchange, the weapon's damage falls off 20 meters sooner and bullet velocity is reduced by 15%.

Rail
Forward Grip 49 OR 100		A forward grip increases control of the weapon, reducing horizontal recoil by 25%, but increases equip time by 0.15 sec.

Ammo
Impact Ammunition 49 OR 100		Increases the weapon's minimum damage from to , while reducing magazine size by .

LC2 Lynx or LC3 Jaguar

Both the LC2 Lynx andLC3 Jaguar are great CQC options, but have their differences. The LC2 Lynx has a better fire rate (159 RPM more) and slightly higher bullet velocity (10 m/s more).  It also has the firing mode of semi-automatic, while the LC3 Jaguar only has automatic. It also had a shorter long reload (reloading with no bullets in the magazine). However, the LC3 Jaguar costs much less (350 less certs or 200 less Station Cash). The LC3 Jaguar also has a faster short reload speed (reloading with at least one bullet in the magazine), better hipfire accuracy, and better minimum damage.
