The Best Assaulting Weapon for NC

[Queensidecastle]

Aye, the sweeper shotgun is great if you can run at 30FPS inside massively crowded towers and bases. Otherwise you need something a bit beefier to pickup the slack. At 8 frames per second like I get, the sweeper isnt usable :/

[TheRagingGerbil]

True, true. I get between 40-50 FPS during big battles.

vanguard.

own the exterior of any tower or base, then let the grunts do the dirty work inside.

pulsar has terrible accuracy compared to the gauss sometimes at a distance i shoot a some vs with my gauss when they hit me it oly takes away about 3 armor and they barely hit me i kill them before they can take away 15 armor

well, one time i ran apon a VS with medium assault, and i had a pulsar, and i crouched, and aimed and shot, he then proceded to stand still ( yup, mad vanu skillz ) and shot back a lil, and i just shot in short burts, and none of my shots missed, i wouldnt see that with a guass at the range i was at



oh yea, i killed him

Heh. Statistically speaking, whilst in the gunner position of a Vanuard, one click = 1-3 kills.

Heh "Magriger owns"... my ass

I have to say hands down the jackhammer for NC. Its still king even if the lasher exists. I see more jackhammers being used than lashers on emerald (even the damn NC population is bigger than VS now and were back to square one once when the lasher nerf comes into effect). Oh lets not forget the NC Scattercannon max, that is more deadly indoors outdoors is dead.

Actually if you fire in bursts of 4, the 4th shot will hit it's target! Good stuff!

Heh I get about 25 fps normally, in large battles indoors that can drop to about 3. I'm pretty screwed no matter what weapon I try to use. Probably why I drive tanks/snipe and stay near the edges of battles lol

[Queensidecastle]

yeah 3 is pretty much unplayable. I can do very well all the way down to 12 or so then it starts to suck. Can kill people with Heavy assault down to about 8 but its usually just luck. I only get 8 FPS at the Main zerg on Emerald. Most of the time I try to stay with the secondary zerg...lol Still good battles but like half the people and 5000 caps

that is what I like about the Pulsar, the accuracy is on, but the weapon is weak compared to the Gauss, but the Gauss is not as accurate as the Pulsar.
I have yet to ever use a cycler

I suggest you start looting Cyclers immediatly. hell, you might like it so much you might switch sides. But seriously tho, it is the most effective weapon in the game right outside Heavy assault range
