What is refiring rate, how is it calculated?

[Tenacity]

I find projectile speed more important than refire rate. Most weapons have similar levels of DPS (Damage-per-second) regardless of refire rate.

Example:

Gun #1 has:
1000 damage
1.0 refire rate
2000 m/s speed

Gun #2 has:
500 damage
2.0 refire rate
1000 m/s speed

Now, both do the same damage per second on constant fire, but gun #1 is -much- easier to hit a moving target with because of higher projectile speed. Not only that, but if you can learn how to 'chain fire' your weapons (firing one weapon immediately after the other, rinse and repeat) you can get a machine-gun effect from multiple slow-refire weapons, making it even more difficult for the target to dodge.
