Hurricane TMP-18 (DXMD)

The Hurricane TMP-18 machine pistol is a weapon in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

Overview
The Hurricane TMP-18 machine pistol is a small-sized weapon notable for its high rate of fire. The weapon is very effective against unarmored targets, but is comparatively less effective against armor and robotic targets. Machine pistol ammunition is also the cheapest ammunition in the game.

Among NPCs, the weapon is most commonly seen carried by Jinn smugglers, ARC soldiers, Dvali gangsters (during early missions), and Shadow Operatives.

Gameplay
The Hurricane TMP-18 can attain an incredibly fast rate of fire, particularly with the full auto upgrade. The full auto fire mode can actually help conserve ammo, by allowing the weapon to fire single shots for well aimed headshots. However, some players may find the default burst fire mode easier to manage.

Damage is low, even when fully upgraded, but the ammo is effective against unarmored targets. Dvali gangsters can be taken down in 5 body shots from point blank (or 9 shots with the silencer attached). When unupgraded and without a silencer, police in light tactical gear take upwards of 20 shots to down when aiming at the body. While 9mm ammo is very common, there comes a point where even a fully upgraded magazine is insufficient at dealing damage. Armored police can absorb 40+ silenced body shots before going down, and would probably take more if you didn't occasionally spray the joint between their helmet and armor. The gun, even when fully upgraded, lacks the punch necessary to bust helmets in less than three bullets. Alternatively, against armored targets, aim for exposed areas such as neck joints.

Poor effectiveness against heavily armored targets is somewhat compensated by the weapon's versatility and effectiveness against soft targets, against which it arguably outperforms the combat rifle. Many high-level targets, including certain types of Shadow Operatives, don't wear full helmets, a curious design decision any savvy player should take full advantage of.

Ammo consumption is high, but ammunition is generally abundant, and can be purchased in large quantities from Mikael Mendel during the second and third visits to Prague. With a bit of practice, one will find that it's not so difficult to pin-point weak spots on most of the more dangerous enemies.

The dry reload is very loud, and will alert higher-tier enemies if they're close to your position.
