Best Place To Level Weapons If You Forma Them? Should I?

[CultOfPersonality]

Should I use one on a Burston? I did potato it and It is my primary weapon, but I want to level up Boltor because.. it looks awesome and the stats I think are quite nice and doable with a good build.

 

Also, besides it being polarized, is there any other benefit to using it on a weapon? The thought of having to level all of the mod amounts up is aggravating in my mind.

The boltor will suit you better at higher level enemies due to armour scaling and the boltor has armour ignore whereas the burston doesn't.

 

If you are going to potatoe and forma I would choose the boltor.

 

The only benefit to forma is polarisation, it allows you to squeeze on those max mods rather than having to leave some out.

 

Best places to level weapons are probably sedna - kappa, ceres - kiste and eris - cyath in my opinion. Shoot a lot and try not to use too many powers.

I'd say there are better weapons than Burston to potato/forma (Latron/Lat Prime come to mind for weapons similar to Burston), though it really is personal preference.

 

As for levelling, just go to wherever you do usually. Most will recommend the Mobile Defense mission Kappa on the planet Sedna for levelling; I can usually get a new weapon to lvl 10 in one run if I have a full cooperative team.

 

In any case, you're going to have to use/level a lot of weapons if you want to get your rank up, so I'd suggest you try out more before you use up a forma.

As always, thanks again for the advice everyone. I'm gonna start on the Burston now.

Well, as soon as I get a couple hundred more nano spores to start making Kunai anyway.

Where should I level if I'm still on the Saturn level 30 type areas? Should I just rush to one of those planets with my normal gun and then level? Loving the Burston way more than the other so I just wanna haul &#! on it and level it up.

Well, Kappa (on Sedna) is 4 missions away from the beginning of Saturn - Cassini, Phoebe, Rhea, Tethys. Granted, the last of those is a boss mission, but if you team up with competent players, it shouldn't be too hard.
