So, we had a huge W patch recently which is ‘Making Enlisted a Better Place №75’ that made some of the under performing BR 2 LMG to be viable again.

But, some of the other bad BR 2 LMGs got left out from the update and i think ZB-26 is one of them, thus needs a buff to keep up with these buffed LMG i think.

ZB-26 has 660 RoF, which is quite fast for the BR 2 LMG standard but suffering from low capacity magazine which is only being 20 rnds and has an identical recoil to Bren Mk I, with rather lengthy reload speed for 20 rnds mag which is 2.7 secs reload speed.

So i suggest following buff for ZB-26 :

Sprint speed from 50% → 65%
ADS speed from 0.3 → 0.5
Reload speed increased from 2.7 secs → 2.4 secs

This would make it comparable to recently buffed Bren guns i believe, where ZB-26 has much faster RoF with a bit better mobility but still hampered by having only 20 rounds magazine with still retaining lengthier 2.4 secs reload speed compared to 2.1 secs reload speed of Bren guns.

Increasing flexibility is a wise choice. Maybe 60%？

Completely agree, maybe buffing its reload time to 2,4 secs too?

Well, it is only 20 rnds magazine so this could be a viable suggestion i think.
Thanks, I’ll add this.
