The LA8 Rebel is a pistol available to the New Conglomerate. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The Liberty Arsenal 8 Rebel is the ultimate expression of the New Conglomerate's design language, one that was mimicked in the Cerberus. With the highest damage-per-shot of any faction specific sidearm, the Rebel is excellent at quickly ending engagements through raw damage potential, with particularly excellent aimed accuracy enabling precise marksmen to deal considerable damage.

However, the Rebel struggles with a relatively small magazine and low fire rate, making it unforgiving in prolonged engagements and perhaps more difficult to use, and the minimum hip cone-of-fire isn't particularly favourable either, though not necessarily unusuable. The pistol's excellent aimed accuracy, relatively good damage fall-off, and high muzzle velocity do allow it a slight ranged bite, however headshots may be necessary to keep the weapon's time-to-kill similar to other sidearms.

Attachments[]

Attachments

Optic
TekLyte Reflex (1x) 49 OR 30		TekLyte's standard reflex sight allows for superior close-range target acquisition over traditional iron sights. More reticles for this sight available, see full article.
GD RefleXR (2x) 149 OR 100		The RefleXR from Genudine Dynamics includes 2x magnification, making it the preferred sight for urban combat scenarios. More reticles for this sight available, see full article.

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
Darklight Flashlight 49 OR 100		The rail mounted Darklight Flashlight can illuminate hostile cloaked infiltrators and dark areas but the light can give away your position. The light can be turned on and off with Toggle Attachment hotkey.
Laser Sight 49 OR 100		A laser sight increases the user's hipfire accuracy by 33%.

This weapon does not have any ammo type attachments.
