aldershot Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) Im so confused to what rifle type of weapon i want to forma up and use as my main. flux seems to be every one's fave, but i don't like it's short range. this is why i chose rifles over shotties.So what's a good alternative to the flux? AP seems to be a big deal, but the only 2 true AP rifles i know of is the flux, or boltor.So what do you people use for end game in terms of rifle? and if it's one that's not AP what do you do to compensate? (armor pierce mod is obvious, but is that enough?) Edited August 13, 2013 by aldershot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatantfool Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Braton is a great, trustworthy weapon. If you have the stuffing for it you could go for Braton Prime. It is as basic as can be and preforms well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stahlhammer Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I think you are confusing Supra with Flux.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im capable of end game right now, but not focused. still trying to develop some mods (man... it takes so long, and the sudden disappearance of fusion drops isn't helping >.<) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blatantfool Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Well, Latron Prime is a pretty awesome gun. If you really aren't interested in any of the Braton variants you can go for that. People tend to swear by the Bow weapons as well - although I personally don't happen to care for them. Ogris is a ridiculously good weapon - also currently counts as a Rifle. I haven't used Gorgon in a very long time and I don't own a Supra - but people tend to enjoy those too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archistopheles Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Long range rifle? Semi or Auto? Semi - Latron/prime or Snipe/vandal Auto - Gorgon, Braton/prime, Boltor Fun - Miter, Ogris, Torid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsmeha Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Braton prime or Boltor is probably your best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeus154 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 The Grakata! But seriously, go for the Gorgon, Dera, Supra, Braton etc. Those are pretty darn effective weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semi - Latron/prime or Snipe/vandal Auto - Gorgon, Braton/prime, Boltor Fun - Miter, Ogris, Torid Would like any rifle that uses rifle mods. Not huge into snipers. Your braton prime suggestion, same as question about. what about AP? does it have it? and if not, do i just rely on the mod to compensate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know now it's not super effective, but it's pretty damn potent once you let it reach it's max crit potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. Corrosive Projectile Aura, AP mods, Grineer Extermination. You'll be fine until you see level 100 enemies, and by then, you'll be more familiar with everything. Plus, we might get new weapons by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kato-san Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) Supra has highest DPS right now, just has low accuracy at long range. If you want accuracy get braton prime, or dera. they both use up a lot of ammo though but thats not a big deal when you can buy ammo boxes or get ammo mods.Snipatron Vandal is good too, just not a spray and pray type.

Archistopheles Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Those ammo mutation mods are so amazing. They single-handedly resurrected my Gorgon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am seeing lv.100+ mobs and my grakata, as you would probably imagine, is not cutting it. Thanks for the feedback guys. the info you've provided has helped immensely. I think im gonna try for a supra (i have the BP, just need to farm the parts), and in the mean time, forma up my boltor. If any one else have any other recommendations i'd love to hear them. up votes for all!! Edited August 13, 2013 by aldershot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave851 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Just want to make one comment about the supra, its not really all that accurate and with the slow travel time, its not really that effective after 30 meters or so, and in-game, the flux rifles 25 meter limit isn't actually so bad, it reached farther than I thought it would and honestly, I wouldn't use a supra / gorgon much past that range anyways because it only has the highest dps when you can actually hit them with most of your shots.
