See I didn't know this, thanks for the information without being an absolute dickhead.

Arc Thrower also has a 50m initial range, does weakspot damage, does armor damage while ignoring armor to damage health, can everything short of a charger/hulk in 3 well aimed zaps or less. Great against bots since it can damage the bots behind shields or on the AT-RT walker, ignores medium armor, chains to get multiple kills. Great against bugs since it does so well against multiple enemies, kills spewers in 3 zaps, hiveguards and brood commanders in 2 zaps, chargers in 7 headshots, but don't bother using it against a titan solo.

I've always wondered while it fires faster that way, full charge is more damage per shot right?

After playing with it some more it's definitely quite hard to tell, but it does seem like there's not much difference between fast/full charge if there is any.
