    Survivalist CB - Yes - Best way to kill a tank and Warhounds
    Sniper Tac 50 - Now Actually better than Nemesis so good for nailing a named boss
    Firewall FT- Kind of Useless its good for CC but the damage needs a serious buff
    Demolisher GL - This is good for gibbing spawns ( Requires you to know the map well and where enemies spawn and when.


    Pretty much the Minigun right now is the worst signature weapon.
    Not saying it's great, but minigun is fairly useful for clearing out door spawns as soon as they open when mobs are still clumped up even on heroic.

    I have to put hte buttom elsewhere so I won't accidently hit it and kill myself
    signature weapon which took a lot of time to switch, have less ammo, doing little damage, and will disable your parkour ability is one thing you dont wanna put out during the fight

    As far as the weapons themselves, it just depends on which one I am wearing at the time.. The sniper, The nade launcher and crossbow probably more than the others..
    Their main value is in the talent trees..
    The one I probably wear most is gunner, because of the talent tree.

    I mostly forget to use it, but when I do I'm thinking to myself why don't I use this more often?

    why would i use the nade launcher that does 1.5 mill when i can just shoot mortars it for 5 mill a shot?

    i never find time to use it, throwing my nades do more dps: it's a waste of time for me. lol.

    The sole reason i'm using the gunner is because of the 10% armor on kill, plus sometimes the banshee pulse.

    It takes too long for the minigun to spin up and fire. Sometimes i kill some warhounds with it if i run out of patience (its damage is actually pretty good on challenging) but mostly it's just a bulky ugly decor on my backpack. Fortunately the ceska backpack hides all signature weapons, including the minigun...

    90% of the time yes. I've only leveled demolition and Technician so far and both weapons are pretty useless, too slow to aim and weak dmg.

    sorry but i heavily disagree, Flame thrower is by far the worst.
    the Minugun since its buff shreds Heavies on challenging atleast, not tested on heroic.

    Flamethrower is in serious need of help. i actively avoid using it. the Damage aint amazing at just trying to even light em on fire is a freaking nightmare. even tho the cone of fire is like 50 degrees wide. the actuall cone to light em on fire is like 5 Degrees. and even if you get the right angle it seems to take a few secs on fireing to light em usually burning through 3/4 of your Fual in the Canister.

    So far the only thing i find to be good about that Spec is the Shield variant that increases damage for every enemy in front.

    depends if i play solo or in group.
    when i play solo i never use it.
    if i play in a group i only use it when im using my tank gear to reset the cooldown from my exotic chestpiece.
