What combo of guns and mods do people run with and how important are the gun skills?
Ive got an assault rifle as my main weapon, think its a lvl 182 ACR. I'm using an extended mag with 7% crit hit chance to bring the rounds up to 57. then a combo of mods for accuracy, headshot damage and crit hit damage. One of my armour pieces has +520 assault rifle damage too so I get about 28% crit hit chance and around 80-90% crit hit damage. I'm also using 2x strikers gear with some extra armour damage making my enemy armour damage 28%. DPS on the weapon is about 150k and base damage is 7.5k
With one complete clip i can take down an enemy on hard but it takes 2-3 clips for elites in challenge mode or incursion. I've seen some players at gear score 190ish mowing down elites in one clip. WTF are they using?
My secondary is usually an AUG lvl 182 which does around 160k dps with higher crit chance than my assault rifle but the mag is way smaller at around 42 and the RPM feels so slow!
Neither of my weapons second skill is active as my skill score is too low (but my firearms is at 2,500 and stamina 2,700)
Any recomendations? I'm fed up of being killed during a reload!
