How Do You Use Your Secondary Weapon?

[360OLLIE]

How do you specifically use your secondary besides during bleedout?

 

Currently I just like to re-play the first mission on Mercury and see how op my pistol is.

 

Let's see how weird these ideas get.

[ZydrateAnatomy]

I use it to rank up...

>_>

[Socks]

For a second there i thought you were asking how to use your secondary.

 

I go through most missions with just my secondary alone.

[Repligon]

I mostly use my sidearm.

Besides that...

[Quasar-Sandwich]

I solo defense with the stug. too op.

[ZydrateAnatomy]

Besides that...

Was meant to be a joke. So far I've found my secondaries to be far too weak in comparison to my melee for a backup.

But I'm not veteran enough to know what really works.

[Demon_Mask]

Well its not that weird at all to use it.... Considering how powerful some if them are.

But I like mine to compliment my primary, or serve as a weapon that I use against different armour against factions. Like a corrosive primary and radiation secondary for grineer.

Or something more Cc when I am using a sniper or something.

Opposite the way I use my primary... Like if I'm using Ignis I bring Marelok for hitting single targets real hard, or if I'm using Dread I'll bring a pistol with good combat rate of fire so I'm never stuck unable to shoot for long if things get too hairy for firing off individual charged shots or killed if I miss once or twice.

 

Best thing about Melee 2.0 is I never feel like I need a point blank gun anymore. I can just do long and medium with my guns.

My post was supposed to be the same. I agree, unless you run out of ammo, your side arm is practically useless unless it actually gets the job done.

Honestly I wish I could make one of my bows a secondary. Man that'd be useful.

[BrotherIcarus]

I do not use it.

 

Ever since I have been able to I have not had one equipped. 

[Darkjackal_2031]

I use my Castanas to turn my fellow tenno into walking bombs. My twin gremlins remain one of my favorite weapons- I often use them more than my primary. Otherwise? I don't really use my other pistols.

[Azawarau]

I use the stug alot as mostly a bleedout weapon since its literally suicide to use most any other way

 

On bosses its  a super quick kill and on high wave enemies itll be putting down things faster than many primaries

[WildJuice]

It's my main weapon, my beloved Brakk.

 undying will and provoked are mods made just for you

[AbaliskInfinite]

Well, when one of the G3 has downed me I usually shoot them until they die, bleedout, revive, claim the pink orb, and then go back to my no shields NM exterminate.

[Angius]

Back in the Closed Beta I cleared the Solar System with a pair of my Akboltos. I used to use only them. I had Braton, not even modded IIRC, and those two beauties.

 

Now they are Forma'd and can outshine most of the primaries. I still love my girls.

[taiiat]

well.... if i'm using my Secondary, i pull the trigger.

and bullets come out the end.

 

and it kills things.

works well for me.

 

 

i often am not carrying my beloved Gremlins most of the time now though, Unequipping them as i've been Polarizing and ranking Equipment often, so i leave my Gremlins 'at home' to get more XP for the things that need it.

 

 

at any rate, do well to remember that Sidearms are the most powerful thing in the game. (excluding one or two exceptions, Ogris and Penta are those only exceptions). they are generally more effective than your Primary Weapon in all situations.

[(PSN)UpscaleSteamX]

All my weapons are becoming to OP due to forma so idk, I wish we had an enemy that I can test my might against......oh we'll.

[(PSN)truelight4u]

I use it in XIni from time to time and enjoy how well it does against level 62+ enemies.

I shoot stuff with it when I am not even bleeding out. I am such a rebel.....

[VScipii26]

More often than not, I use my pistols as my primary.
Doubly so since the new feature of equipping weapons.

[ZephyrPhantom]

I generally alternate between leveling primaries, secondaries, and melee, so depending on what I'm using, either a lot or not at all.

There's a larger assortment of interesting and useful secondary weapons than primary weapons in warframe.

[Zaik_Torek]

the easier question to answer would be what i don't use the akbronco prime for
