Night Hawkin - Unique Ability

Shoots bullets that deal Cryo Damage during the day and Fire Damage at night.

Arctic Prefix:
Instead of changing to fire damage it now shoots up to 3 bullets based on the time of day.

The Night Hawking can swap between either [Full-Auto & 4-Round Burst], [Full-Auto & Semi-Auto] or [4-Round Burst & Semi-Auto].
