    What's your favorite AR for PVE

    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.

    Stay Safe,

    FAMAS has to be the best all around AR , high RPM high DPS and good stability accuracy

    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!

    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.

    Another good option is Custom P416 G3, very stable and accurate, good dps, but is very rare lately, especially with good rolls.
