Perturb, Explained
While Agitator is holstered you generate 50% less threat when shooting your other weapon. Keeping it holstered for 10 seconds Primes it. Swapping to a primed Agitator grants +25% rate of fire and +30% weapon damage, but you generate 100% more threat while shooting for 20 seconds. Swapping away before the timer ends removes the bonuses, so commit to the burst once you draw it.
Build Tips
Agitator starts at 850 RPM with 30 rounds and a 2.4s reload, so the primed burst hits hard and fast. Pair it with a strong secondary you enjoy shooting while priming - the holstered threat reduction keeps you safer during setup. Weapon-damage stacking from brand bonuses multiplies the primed window nicely. For full setups see tested Division 2 builds.
