Okay but the post was about pot shots. From an incredibly lazy recording, the swap speed to helbore weapon prep and charge time has 250 frames give or take assuming you are firing the weapon as fast as possible from a quick shot to deal with an elite or specialist.
The bolter has roughly 190 before it can ads and fire. I can't be arsed to do precise frame data.
The hellbore is slower at being able to fire (a charged shot) than the bolter, which has a slower draw speed but has a faster ready shot, which means it is combat ready at a noticeably faster rate.
It is the slowest gun there is at being able to initially kill an enemy from a drawn state that vet has.
Again, I am not arguing the gun is weak, I am not arguing the gun is bad at killing, I am not arguing that it cannot dispatch a large amount of elites in a good TTK. What I am stating from the very original post is that it has a noticeably longer ready time than every other gun from both setup and the initial draw, which is not a luxury you always have in havoc as you are always going to be making your own space which the helbore doesn't do on its own either.
