Favorite Weapon combinations?

Hey all!

 

I'm always looking for a certain setup when in the area.

When playing i developed a few favourite weapon combinations like:

 

When landed i like to look for a RE-45 Auto / EVA-8 Auto as this has a high DPS value in the first skirmish fights.

 

Peacekeeper & Wingman or Prowler Burst PDW (With select fire)

M600 Spitfire & Hemlock

R-301 Carbine & Peacekeeper or Long Bow DMR

 

But what weapon combo's do you guys rock ?

Do you take risk with swapping weapons close to the last fight?

Or play save and don't switch weapons types to keep the attachments?

 

Let me know!

My go to pairing at the minute is the Spitfire and Hemlock.

Only have to carry one type of ammo and both are hard hitting.

 

High level barrel stabiliser being my preferred attachment. If I could only have one attachment, that would be it.

Recently I've been favouring the R-301 & PK combo, for versatility. 


With a few attachments the R-301 is a midrange monster and recoil is low enough that it can suppress folks at long range. Barrel stabilisers are highly sought-after.

The Peacekeeper is what it is, obviously it's strong at close range (mid with choke) and it can be a good backup. If you dump your R-301 magazine without getting the knock, a quick Peackeeper blast will often take them down.

Triple take/peacekeeper or av8.. can hold a squad at distance with that triple take and spot enemys for your squad, while they rush up

Any combination of R99, Wingman, Spitfire, Peacekeeper or R301 (well maybe not R99+Peacekeeper and not Spitfire+R301).

I would also sometimes take Mastiff (always drop PK for it, but almost never drop R99, unless I really don't want to leave it for enemies) and almost always take Kraber.

 

Favorite combination: R99 + Wingman, if I have purple light mag

I found my first gold barrel stabiliser last night. The Hemlock turned from a monster to outright beast. Loving the Hemlock at the moment (3 burst setting).

Currently

 

Semi Rifle (Hemlok/G7)) for mid-long range. (Initially i hated the hemlok, but after i got 16 kills in a match with it, i learnt to love it)

And any high RoF weapon for close-mid range. (Devotion, Havoc, r-99 etc)

Lately I've been running Longbow/PRowler.

 

I take a Peacekeeper if I Can't find a prowler and a triple take if I can't find a longbow.

Longbow/Trippletake and Flatline/r301 or r99

I try to stay away from Wingman and Peacekeeper until they fix them.

Re: Favorite Weapon combinations?

Any tips and tricks using the VK-47 Flatline ?

I want to use the weapons more but it doest feel right and feels weird to use.
