Trying to put a AR build together and looking for some input from others who play AR build
Don't have many AR's and i never farm for them, the only one that really stands out that i have is a:
MK16 with Strained and Max: Weapon Damage + Health Damage + Armor Damage or Damage to Targets out of Cover (can't remember which one)
Using:
- 1 x Providence Mask
- 1 x Providence Holster
- 1 x Overlord Fox Prayer
- 1 x Petrov Contractors Gloves (Can swap out for Grupo or Providence)
- 1 x Fenris Chest with Unbreakable
- 1 x Ceska Backpack with Vigilance
What i'm looking for is a AR that has:
Very good stability (console player here)
Dishes out decent Dps
Also as i have never really run a AR build what specialization do you use? I was thinking Gunner?
Skills i like to use is Revive Hive as i play solo 99% of the time and Fixer Drone or Striker Drone or Assault Turret
p.s I will also be using my Bakers Dozen for distance, might aswell utilize them Fox Prayer.
Thoughts............
There are a few viable options, stable, accurate and with decent dps, not necessarily in this order:
- Police M4 with Damage to Target Out of Cover or Damage to Armor and Optimist
- FAMAS 2010 with same attributes/talent as above
- Mk16 or Tactical variant, even the Socom Mk16 is desirable, same attributes/talent
Alternatively, given solo playing, you can use In Sync for mutual buffing between weapon and skill (drone, turret).
As specialization, I would say Gunner (for armor on kill) or Sharpshooter (for extra stability and accuracy).
im Using:
- Coyotes Mask
- Providence Chest (Obliterate or The Gift)
- Providence Holster
- Fenris Backpack with Vigiliance
- Providence Gloves
- Fox Prayers
I love to play with the Black Market AKM, i have a few to choose.
Killer, Mesured or In Sync (with shield)
The Famas is also very nice to play, with similar Talents as the AKM
I like also the Sig 556.
There are a lot of nice AR's in the Game.

Agreed. It seems however that dropping a really decent one takes quite a bit of time or I had a pretty bad luck on that front. But yes, FAMAS the best pick up!Originally Posted by Dust-Demon Go to original post
My most used and Favourite AR's that i use with my Red build are
Tac MK16
Named Famas (because without handling/Stability) it jumps like crazy on console.
F2000
And my stand out Favourites and current used Classic FAL (and it hits like a truck) and the Chameleon (it's alot better than people think)
Those are my Favourites.
My red build is an AR/SMG Duo
Coyote mask
Fenris chest with Obliterate
Walker harris Backpack with Vigilance
Gloves/Knees/Holster all Solokov
51% CHC and approx 170% CHD
Depending on The AR's i use the weapon damages vary
Famas, 107K
F2000, 110K
MK16,134K
Classic FAL,137K
Chameleon, 98K
The SMG's i use vary
MPX 130K
Police UMP-45 160K
Tact Vector 103K @ 1233RPM
Enhanced AUG , 141K
- Coyote's Mask
- Walker's backpack with Composure (because I play a lot from cover)
- Ceska vest with Unbreakable
- Gila gloves for that 5% armor
- Walker's kneepads
- Wow... I actually forgot what holster I have (haven't found a replacement or something better ever since WONY dropped, but looking for a Walker's replacement for that 3rd brand bonus or the next brand that grants 1% Armor Regen).
For solo play I've aimed towards the ACR. Has decent RPM & damage with the armor on kill talent.
For Coop I've aimed towards the SOCOM SCAR-L. I've managed to get a decent rolled one. The low RPM & high damage is perfect when AI is targeting the other players. Was using a Mk.16, but the extra stability from the SOCOM SCAR-L makes all the difference. I don't like the rough pull of the Black-Market AKM they implemented (it's an insult to those that used it in real life). Compensate talent on both of them.
I'm using a Police M4 with Ranger, I've always been playing ARs in TD2 even when they haven't been popular at all and
the Police M4 is by far my alltime favourite:
- great stability and accuracy
- high RPM
- decent base damage
and compared to the Famas it has a higher optimal range which makes it more viable for longer distances.
Gunner Spec would be a good choice, using high RPM weapons you're running low on ammo pretty quick otherwise.
