Alcadiac Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Can't really decide which rifle would be the most well-balance overall weapon for any mission. Can anyone suggest which rifles are worth using, every information would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renathy Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Super-charged Vandal with reload & rate of fire mods, plus additional ones if you'd like. Shreds enemies quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liacu Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 100% the Braton Vandal. If you have it that is >_> It deals decent damage and has great accuracy making it a reliable weapon in most situation. It can't compete with the Gorgon damage wise but the Gorgon has really terrible accuracy. (The 100 accuracy in stats is 100% false) No comment on the Boltor, haven't used. Those 3 are practically the only rifles you should consider for most situation. I suppose a Latron is decent but the dps is quite poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boltor is pretty much like Gorgon for long range >.> hits everything except the target itself lol i think it's more accurate than Gorgon, sill able to predict where the bolts will go (need to do the click like burst weapon instead) thus, Vandal shred the long range target faster so i'd go with either Vandal, or Boltor but Vandal seems to be more well-balanced overall Edited February 25, 2013 by Adagio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renathy Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Boltor is pretty much like Gorgon for long range >.> hits everything except the target itself lol Boltor doesn't lack accuracy. It's actually highly accurate. The only problem is that it uses heavy bolts, rather than your regular bullets. Heavy bolts are slow and take time to get to the target. Different physics compared to the Gorgon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing I love about the Boltor is when it pins enemies to walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liacu Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I know it pins people to walls. There was even a bug where people would get pinned to walls 100 miles away. BUUUT I never thought of pinning someone to a fan *_* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerkops Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Definitely the Vandal from what I've seen, my only problem is that I run out of ammo almost every mission, especially against bosses. Pretty much have to take ammo packs with me or I'm screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much have to take ammo packs with me or I'm screwed. Try switching to your secondary or using your melee more often. Trust me, by the time you get to the boss, you'll have plenty of ammo. And don't forget to burst or tap. It's good to save ammo because if you spray like a nut-job, you'll end up missing a bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synicus Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Gorgon, get some dmg on there and it will eat through any situation without a problem. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RainDreamer Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Vandal, hands down. But without that, then boltor isn't too bad, if you get used to the projectile speed. The normal Braton isn't too shabby either, though I prefer boltor over it. Latron is also possible as general purpose if you are good with your aim, but kinda hard.

CharlieTheGunner Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Super charged vandal for most things in General, super charged gorgon for boss battles and if you don't mind the fire rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyzh Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 The Vandal is the standard by which all other weapons are measured. I feel bad for anybody who missed out on the chance to buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecretDragoon Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Vandal hands down. It can take down anything (even bosses) with relative ease. I have solo'd nearly every boss (not Pluto, Eris or Ceres ad I haven't cleared them) with the Vandal. It is highly versatile, great fire rate, great ammo supply, one tap kills normal mobs.

DE should just make it a permanent edition to the Market because of how popular it is. Of course not at the original 1 credit price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
