The Magstrike is an excellent fall-back weapon: duck around a corner, and ambush your pursuer(s) with a burst of ten darts.

Back in December I had an excellent nerf battle at my cousin's birthday get-together:a 5v5 indoor battle in a large house. My team laid out all the weapons we had brought in our base, and got to select whichever we wanted. Here's some of the stuff (I used most of them at one point or another): 3 or 4 hammershots, 2 rotofuries, 2 magstrikes, 1 rhino-fire and 1 vulcan (both of which were used to defend our upstairs base), 1 rampage, 1 Alpha Trooper CS-12, 1 rayven, (I had a hallelujah moment when I saw that) 2 cycloneshocks, 1 magnus, 1 longstrike (again, hallelujah moment even though it is rediculously underpowered) and more. It was a rediculously large battle, because the opposing team had more. Anyway, I got to use a rediculous variety of nerf guns, and I must say my favorite moment was when I operated both the Vulcan and the Rhino-Fire on their bipods at the same time.

My point up there ^^ is that ROF is trivial when you're launching three darts at once (two from the Rhino and one from the vulcan) at a decent speed. My guess for combine Darts Per Second would be maybe 7?
