| Does anyone have any use at all for the auger, dragoon and arc charger?
Usually, if i am holding one of these, and the enemy is holding anything else, i'm dead in double quick time. I don't think its my uselessness thats the factor as i rarely see any good opposition player using these weapons and people using them get shot pretty quikly. The one i hate the most is the Dragoon/Flamer as you can't fire when moving or else you will turn into the human torch and the only kills i've gotten with it is when i shoot a puddle of fire in the ground and wait for some blind fool to run into it.
The arc charger seems to be like a alien shotgun of some sort. Does anyone know what the difference between the primary and secondary fire is?
And finally, the auger. i'm not sure what the role of this weapon is in the online game. Maybe if you had unlimited ammo it could be of some use but in ranked games i'd rather take a bullseye / carbine.
Excluding the rocket launcher, the primary weapons that you need to excel at are the bullseye/carbine and shotgun. The shotgun comes into its own on maps which are tight and have plenty of corners (like the large grimsby) and when coupled with chimera rage, its hard not to be in the list for top 3 kills.
I think the introduction of some of the other single player game weapons would be more welcomed such as the backlash grenade and mine thrower.
Anybody have any views on this????? | |

| L11-2 dragon ...is my worst wep lol im shit with it havent been bothered to pratise the wep ..just couldīnt be arsed ....lol
the wep report : L11-2 dragon: press L1 : and u launch a vapour cloud. press R1 : and u deliver a continous stream of vapour.
Auger: press L1 generate a shield for you press R1 : fire projectiles that drills through cover like walls etc.
Arc charger : press L1 : target electrified enemies kinda of a tag but like like the bulseye here you need to hit the person with R1. press L2 : to fire charge and electrifi enemies
note :u have to kill ur enemies fast or u r dead hit with L1 first then use R1

| Would have to say Arc Charger and L11-2 Dragon. Nothing more frustrating then to be in a battle, no more ammo and the L11-2 Dragon that pops-up... Think I managed to kill myself more with the Dragon then enemies lol. This weapon looks only efficient when used against me Anyway, always happy when I see an enemy coming at me with the Arc Charger, way to hard to kill someone with that piece of junk. This weapon is on its best at mid-range, so stay far away or get real close. I think the Auger is not that bad. I used to use it more before. Now I only use it to shoot people through walls. Wouldn't go into 1vs1 with someone with that weapon though. | |

| I think the arc charger isn't that bad at close range. If you rappidly tap R1 it puts the enemy down in 4-5 shots, as long as you actually hit them that is!
But the dragon, what a load of shit that is everytime I try to use it I end up as a bit of human charcoal lol!
The auger is ok when your chimera and you shoot people through the walls. Sneaky sneaky ha ha. | |

| The Dragon is absolutly SHIT. I dont think there are any points about it AT ALL. If all i have is the dragon left then my gravestone is being made. Althogh its quite fun on Campain as i like watching them Chimera without guns (which doesnt stop them biting you) burn to death. The arc charger is always a gamble as it overheats too easy. I must say though that if i had to chose any of the weapons even from Campain apart from the LAARK it would have to be the Bullseye MarkII as it just elimenates the opposition lol | |

| The flamer is only good against chimera. Set them on fire with your primary shot then change to any other gun to add a bit of damage. 99% of the time they are going to die before you, but you have to be close. The vapour cloud is good if you hit with it but if you miss your screwed.
The arc charger is only good for taking out large groups and nodes. When playing meltdown the arc charger is king, with secondary fire it will destroy a node in 2 shots and if there are any enemies around it will arc to them and kill them too (always handy). Against groups you really need to know how it works. Once an enemy has been hit with the arc charger they get tagged by it. This tag thing amplifies the damage of the next shot. Primary fire will tag the one guy you are shooting and arc to any others that are tagged near him. Secondary fire will arc around all that are close to your target (they have to be very close though). Best bet to take out groups with the arc charger is primary fire the first guy to put a tag which will amplify the damage, then secondary fire him to hit him and put a tag on all his mates. Then primary fire the hell out of the first and most of them should be dead. For most this is (R1, L1, R1, R1, R1). However i voted this as worst weapon, if a big group is running at me i'd rather put a grenade on the floor and run away.
Alot of people hate the auger but i actually like the weapon. You only need 3 headshots with this gun to take a human down so if you get the jump on him you should be ok. I like to use the shield when on a long straight road where all the enemy is the other end just pop the shield and aim generally in their direction, they canonly frag you.
But the number 1 use for the auger is for the snipers. You can pop an auger shield infront of you and poke the end of the sniper rifle through. This allows you to shoot them but you are still protected by the shield! Great if you have an enemy sniper watching your position, he'll usually stay looking at you not being able to do anything while you shoot him. | |
