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 sooner, and bullet velocity is reduced by 15%.
While attached, a suppressor removes the bright, fiery flash emitted from the gun's barrel each time it fires, replacing it with a tame puff of smoke, and modifies the firing sound of the weapon to a unique, quieter sound. In addition, firing the gun no longer reveals the player on the minimap of nearby enemies at any range. In exchange, the weapon's muzzle velocity is reduced by 15% and its minimum damage range is reduced by 20 meters, or 10 meters if fitted to a submachine gun.
Damaging an enemy using the Counter-Intelligence implant using a weapon with a suppressor attached will prevent the implant's primary effect from triggering against the shooter. This effect is also found on the MKV Suppressed's integrated suppressor, as well as those of its cosmetic variants, although does not function on the NS-30 Tranquility or the NS Viscount G6's respective suppressors.
