Really appreciate covering weapons that nobody talks about. Always fascinating, to hear thoughts on them. It is unfortunate that most of these weapons are not very good.

Thanks for the video! Amazing analysis comparison, and description. I hope you actually tag Nexon to inform them if this weapon is performing as such (and i hope they buff/change it).

The problem with Scout rifles in this game is that they have no ammo and don't do nearly enough damage to outclass other weapons. They start with the same impact round pool of all the other weapons (5 mags) but some of the rifles have literally 4x the default fire rate of the others. So you have basically 5 mags that you can dump on like 20 mobs, none of which will drop impact rounds or are too far for you to even pick them up.

You run another impact weapon and take the ammo converter and max ammo cap's. Your dmg dealer won't pick up anything past x amount, but switch to the other gun and you will. Bullets won't magically disappear when you switch back to your main hand.

@Vaisukin Ай бұрын

every single weapon type in this game has a trade off, the more fire rate usually the less firearm bast attack. This is a problem for the player to decide, if you want to not have ammo problems, use the silly weeper which gives a lot of value in each bullet, although your fire rate will be very low. If you don’t have ammo problems, run a faster firing scout rifle. Also the developers didn’t approach all weapon types with the idea of them being your main dps, but some of being a secondary, an example to prove this would be analysis master, which is a module that is extremely beneficial, but is not the best in slot dps choice for any weapon specifically over real life fighter. That sounds limiting in playstyle, but that’s why they created characters like gley and enzo for those who wanna use any weapon but there downside is ammo. Scout rifles only seem worse because you aren’t making an all around loadout. Ideally you would want a crush,burst,pierce in your kit, as having a weapon that gets a little more advantage in a certain situation is good, for example colossus fights every boss has something that they will always take 10% more damage from, and they also have parts on them that take increased damage from other damage types. Your two choices for impact rounds are hand cannons and scout rifles, but hand cannons are a burst while scout rifles are a crush. Most top dps weapons like greg’s reversed,secret garden, python, are all burst, so nobody says you can’t run a hand cannon too, but it’s unnecessary since those guns will be outdpsing your others anyways. It’s best to use your secondary weapon as something to cover your build weakpoints, aka distance. Burst guns fall off range wise in dps relatively early, while scout rifles next to snipers allow you to comfortably to more dps than any other category other than a sniper as you get further from the opponent, which is important for positioning. Now lastly is the thing that not a single youtube even calculates in their spreadsheets, attribute effect rate. Scout rifles if i remember correctly have a attribute effect rate of 12-16%, along with some having high base firearm attack, which greatly increase the dps of attribute procs, Landing a proc could be an extra 5-10x dps worth of whatever element you are running, especially with fire since fire hits the hardest.

@Unknown-pm6hf Ай бұрын

I think what they intended for snipers, and scout rifle is to destroy removable parts as those count as weak points and for us to switch to other weapons to deal with there frenzied parts, that might be why the destructible parts in frenzied state don’t count as weak point, also is it a glitch or did they change it because for some reason collosi rage meter still goes up even if you hit weak points, this didn’t happen before.

@Vaisukin Ай бұрын

thank you for actually using hawkeye, I think the whole problem with builds for guns is the exact same problem with descendant builds, They will fight a colossus and show off those pretty numbers, but outside of that the build is unplayable, same thing with gun builds, literally running hawkeye negates all the negative from real life fighter and have aiming, and also gives you a 5% gain. I have this on my python build and my accuracy is at max 100. Also another thing about accuracy in this game is even if you reach max 100 accuracy with a weapon, the reticle will still get smaller going over capped Weaken regeneration weakens healing, which seems pretty useless in the game right now since only times regeneration is a problem is devourer, dying to a boss( outpost or void reactor), or as an enemy modifier, but you can outdps the heals in all situations in the game as of now so that’s why For building scout rifles, i feel like they will never be your main dps weapon, it’s usually going to be a gerneral rounds weapon or special rounds weapon as your main dps. I think they serve as good weapons for breaking parts or objectives, like heart of the fortress boss immunity phase or colossus frenzy parts, since they are crush, as for crush options you have a scout rifle,lmg,and sniper, scout rifles serving as a good way to utilize crush and impact rounds

@aheahe7943 Ай бұрын

typically because outside of collosus battles, skills are way better than guns. depending on the descendant you're playing, and considering most descendants aren't gun focused, why would you ever want to shoot one enemy at a time with limited ammo when you can press one button and kill the entire area with bunny, valby, gley, viessa, ajax, etc. don't need accuracy to kill a 30k hp random mob.

@Vaisukin Ай бұрын

⁠@@aheahe7943that’s not how to use scout rifles, you use them to destroy breakable parts from a distance since out of all guns they have the farthest falloff damage other than snipers, allowing you to break colossus parts or orbs with ease from a distance, also orbs take more damage from crush I don’t disagree with what you are saying at all, but they still have a purpose, just like guns do in general. Make a build to cover your character weakpoints, aka for a character like bunny her only weakness is range, enemies far away you would have to be close to do damage, which is why you could use a blue beetle to be able to do damage to things that require you to be far away otherwise you would die, it’s all about having dps from all ranges once content gets harder

@@Vaisukin im not talking about guns or scout rifles, im talking about accuracy mods. right now, there really isn't a good reason to prioritize accuracy over more damage. like you said, if accuracy with a scout rifles is an issue, just use a sniper.

@Vaisukin 26 күн бұрын

@@aheahe7943 Not sure what you are trying to say because you are saying you are not talking about guns but accuracy, then are talking about sniper rifles and scout rifles instead of modules. for majority of builds, by the time you get to the last 2 modules, the damage you get from those last 2 is miniscule, such as let’s say a python. The python best in slot ultimate module is real life fighter, and it doesn’t matter how good your aim is if your reticle is huge, since your bullet can land anywhere within that reticle. Running hawkeye on a python for example literally counters real life fighter -20% accuracy and Have aiming -20% accuracy, along with giving a net positive of 5% since it gives 45%. If you actually play content other than colossus fights, and i would even say for colossus fights, you would understand how important accuracy is. Many elite enemies have small weakpoints hit boxes, meaning you need to be closer to them to do consistent damage. Not to mention that your reticle blooms too, making your already big reticle even bigger. Why run a scout when you can run a sniper? well snipers take heavy rounds, which unless you are playing enzo or gley you will have ammo problems. Scout rifles offer a crush weapon alternative from machine guns and snipers that serves as a middle ground, both damage wise and range wise. I run a rocket launcher but i want a crush weapon in my kit, as crush is the best against destructible parts like boss orbs and frenzy parts, as it receives a damage increase. Why run accuracy on scout rifle? Well that’s something you will have to find out for yourself i guess, if you play the game and run real life fighter along with have aiming on any weapon in this game, when you are trying to shoot a weak point that is relatively small, you will realize how hard it is to maintain real life fighter stacks no matter how good your aim may be

@@Vaisukin "if you actually did content besides colossus" as if we all don't do all of the content because its required to grind for parts? like what? you think im logging in, fighting a colossus and calling it a night? lmao, I actually haven't fought a colossus this week because everything im farming for is in fusion reactors. im like 20,000 xp away from mastery rank 21, what're you even on about??? and that's my point, OUTSIDE of colossus battles, you barely even need guns. at least for the characters I play. small weakpoints? need to be close? why would I need to do any of that when Viessa's 4th skill crits for 2million damage per tick, ticks 4 times and wipes every single non-colossus enemy in seconds? gley, valby, viessa, sharen, all of them I can wipe all non-colossus content with either their skills, or a sniper rifle on sharen. weapons only shine during colossus fights and you don't NEED accuracy mods to hit weakpoints when the weakpoints are the size of satellite dishes. obviously if you're halfway across the battlefield trying to hit weakpoints with a scout rifle loaded up with real life fighter, that's a you problem. but even at -40% accuracy, the reticle on a blue beetle still comfortably covers the extremely sizable shoulders of executioner, dead bride, pyromancer, obstructor, frost walker, molten fortress's airport sized weak points and gluttony.

Weaken regen is probably reduce hp/shield recovery. Currently can be used against devourer in his immunity phase regen, but he dies in 6-7 seconds so its whatever rn.

@LPuca Ай бұрын

I use Blue beetle and fun fact. If you lower it's rate of fire to 150, you can hold the trigger and the accuracy loss from the gun practically resets by the next shot. Also, elemental dmg perk and modules aren't a bad choice for scout rifles.

I feel like this thing has an implementation that got lost in translation somewhere along the way. A simple and more interesting fix would be you get the crit buff from Solar onto Lunar debuffed targets.

@NY-Buddy 28 күн бұрын

I wanna ask you 3 questions: - why not Payout as your Gold module? - correct me if im wrong but if i read correctly, in the gun stats it says 100% accuracy when aiming through scope, doesn't that mean 100% accuracy so shouldn't the accuracy be replaced with recoil instead? - weak point expansion is not every weak point shot right? Its 1 shot and then every 5 secs another shot is buffed right?

@drapple1215 28 күн бұрын

payouts not worth as there's no reason to run it because the weapon needs damage also it needs to reload for the perk to work which is anti-synergistic to payout have aiming and realife reduce accuaracy to -40% which makes it hard to keep RLF up without loosing stacks so you run hawkeye to bring it back to 0% if you even want to run the RLF build yes WPE works on a 5 second cooldown

@NY-Buddy 28 күн бұрын

@@drapple1215 Well, assuming you're not playing the constant reload way right? Assuming you're getting an extra four shots per second for the payout. That would be 12 extra shots right, So about 24 in one clip. Then with fire rate up you get an extra. Let's say six shots so that's 30 shots total. Just unloaded from the first weak point shot through the entire clip. Wouldn't those extra shots make up for the damage lost from real life fighter buff but also be consistent damage at the same time? And then let's say you boost the fire rate up to. I believe 50% is the max for the green guns, would be about 36 shots total with really high weak point damage. And then it would be even more damage with the buff effect for the first four to seven shots. I don't know. Maybe I'm just mathing it a little too hard in my head and I'm not thinking about it, Logically
