    Anything with a suppressor! Lol, love the 1911s just need a bigger mag. But primary right now swaps between the suppressed 1911 and a suppressed modified maelstrom with short scope, semi auto, and some other mods. The 1911 dps is awesome, but 45 ammo is still a pretty rare drop for me. Buying it every time I see it. The maelstrom is great for when I need more range or just don’t want to reload every other second.

    The rest of my quickbar changes a lot depending on what I find that’s higher damage or dps. Rifles are my go to, but I’m trying to do a lot more stealth play (stealth overhaul mod made it way more fun), so the sneaky pistol shooting really brings back some MGS feel (until I break stealth and just go run and gun which happens almost every time eventually… which is actually exactly how my MGS playthroughs would go too).

    Oh and you gotta have a good 40mm grenade launcher too just in case you get really pissed off!

    Grendels. I love the P90 look. But… After level 20 i never found any good Grendels, unfortunately. Whats up with that?

    Fittingly, Beowulfs are the weapon I usually find and end up using.

      “Advanced” is the way to go. They shred.

      Really just look for any “advanced” weapon as it’s a higher tier. Hierarchy goes Calibrated, Refined, Advanced, Superior.

    guns I love The legendary novalight- it had one inch punch, bashing and something else for perks, with a focussed nozzle for one of the mods. at close range, a shot to the face usually put things down. if not, a smack to the face finished it.

    The AA-9 rigged up with a scope for range. Any fast dagger. the v-attack on them takes things down pretty solidly. Especially if you have decent perks. Usually keep one quick-slotted for if the pistol I keep for close range goes out of ammo. It’s faster to swap, I think, than to reload. I

    the urban eagle is also a solid choice, for much the same reasons as the novalight up top- if it’s got decent perks, (none of the procs, save those for things like the grendel.) and you can consistently get headshots, it does it’s job well.

    weapons I hate: anything with space adept. just saying.

      I’ve got a space adept pacifier shotgun that I named “The Boarding Party” and I keep in a chest next to the docking hatch on my ship.

    Mining laser and coachman since they’re the only ones used for the current any% speedrun route.

    I haven’t really fallen in love with any particular gun. I tend to use whatever I have the most ammo for.

    I use a suppressed Orion a lot for sniping, partly because I have a lot of rounds for it. Also the Old Earth Hunting Rifle.

    For midrange stealth I use a suppressed Drum Beat because I like the drum mag.

    Solstice pistol for close suppressed work.

    I like shotguns and like the Breach but it doesn’t work that well for me, and only 7 rounds is a drag. I tend to use a Magpulse in close-quarters loud.

    Also a heavily modified Kodama for close/mid work.

    For melee I have a good Wakizashi, but it doesn’t work well. Even when an enemy is crawling on the ground wounded it takes several swings to finish them off. Guess I need more points in melee.
