[QUOTE=gnoob;49990728]Lex Prime is probably what you think you want. Modded up with a ton of forma it is a hand sniper. Maybe consider some cc for your secondary instead though, since boltor should melt any single targets, you could go for sonicor to ragdoll enemies when you can't keep up with the fire. The boltor is long range enough really. Edit: Sorry, missed that you just started, consider Lex for your secondary then, nice and cheap to make. Sonicor and Lex Prime can come later, both are easily acquired so you can get both.[/QUOTE] no i think CC might be good way to go i didn't know there were sidearms that did splash damage :v
[QUOTE=T-hunter;49990931]no i think CC might be good way to go i didn't know there were sidearms that did splash damage :v[/QUOTE] Sonicor, Staticor, Angstrum, Kulstar, Atomos, aoe Secondaries are the best
[QUOTE=Roman Candle;49990950]Sonicor, Staticor, Angstrum, Kulstar, Atomos, aoe Secondaries are the best[/QUOTE] Or get Concealed Explosives then you have more choices
ah yes the kulstar my favorite way to suicide stack those multishots
[QUOTE=brenz;49990203]The consistent criticals make up for it. ~15% chance to do ass < no chance to do ass. For me at least, because I like consistent damage output. [/QUOTE] The dex sybaris fires sufficiently quickly and has such a high crit chance that duds will barely register to you when in use; in the extremely rare event that all four shots (factoring in multishot) don't crit, you'll have put another set of four into the target before they can react. Additionally it uses the most plentiful type of ammunition in the game and reloads within two seconds, making wasted shots have negligible impact. You could give yourself 100% crit chance, but the guarantee of crits will be offset by the reduced fire rate and loss of a slot for a more useful mod (elemental damage, base damage or utility).
I got Stug because it was the only one which materials were available for me right away :v
[QUOTE=MoopsiePook;49990897]if you miss with a Sybaris you probably shouldn't be using the goddamn Sybaris [editline]23rd March 2016[/editline] make it bannable in game to miss with sybarises sybars sybari???[/QUOTE] I thought we were talking about sniper rifles?
i saw the comment about "Damage per shot" over "Damage per second" and i figured you meant the sybaris unless there are people out there who build sniper rifles for dps
Speaking of. Are there any actually viable sniper rifles worth getting? I'm at that point of the game where I'm the old grouchy grandpa who used to play the game all the time, but can't catch up with all the new trends. I have most of the frames and plenty of weapons, but I never know what to level or do next.

So I've kinda been piling up weapons forever and I'm not sure which ones I should keep or delete. I especially have a boatload of melee weapons that seem goofy as fuck but who knows. Which of these should I definitely vendor/definitely put some effort into modding properly to make regular use of? Akbronco Prime Anku Attica Boar Prime Boltor Burston Prime Cronus Daikyu Dakra Prime Dark Dagger Dark Sword Dual Zoren Ether Daggers Fang Prime Glaive (should I just replace this with Cerata?) Gorgon Heat dagger Heat sword Hikou prime Ignis Jaw sword Lato Machete Marelok Mios Ogris Pangolin Sword Plasma Sword Pyrana Seer Sicarus Prime Skana (lol) Synapse Tiberon Tipedo Tonbo Tonkor Twin Gremlins Vasto Prime Venka
Obviously replace normal variants that you can with Prisma/Wraith/Prime/Vandal/Synoid/Rakta/Vaykor/Telos/Secura/Sancti. [editline]23rd March 2016[/editline] And non AK to AK variant.

[editline]23rd March 2016[/editline] And non AK to AK variant.[/QUOTE] Yeah those are sort of obvious (would love to replace my boltor with a boltor prime but idk if i'm willing to shell out the massive plat for it) but some of the other things that don't have a prime variant are just sitting there with me wondering if there's any reason for me to keep it (ie, heat dagger and sword)
There's a [URL="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DdsYLFaWL58_mQeKewm_ejCQdfXM7hSVx9o4PbZ-yD8/htmlview?usp=sharing&sle=true#"]tier list[/URL] some dudes were doing(only up to 18.0 tho). You can safely sell stuff that is in trash/avoid tier.
get rid of all the alert melees, mashitty, lato, skana, ogris, gorgon, gremlins maybe, all of the old melees
[QUOTE=the_killer24;49991551]get rid of all the alert melees, mashitty, lato, skana, ogris, gorgon, gremlins maybe, all of the old melees[/QUOTE] so you're telling me to sell my lato vandal?

[QUOTE=brenz;49991697]Lanka. Only thing that can reach 100% crit chance with only 2 mods.[/QUOTE] I mean, Amprex can reach 100% with only 1 mod, it's not the point. Lanka's damage per shot is best of the snipers tho, so that's cool.
[QUOTE=Combine 177;49990766]Isn't AKVasto pretty solid?[/QUOTE] That's a joke or not I can't tell. Either way, AkMagnus is better I think

Lanka is the only one that can reach 100% crit with only 2 mods, rest need that stupid Argon Scope mod.
[QUOTE=brenz;49992104]We were talking about snipers though. Lanka is the only one that can reach 100% crit with only 2 mods, rest need that stupid Argon Scope mod.[/QUOTE] Woah, stupid? Because it requires you to successfully land headshots?
Pangolin sword is not trash tier. Built right It's one of my favorite multipurpose swords. [editline]23rd March 2016[/editline] Also visually it's my favorite.
[QUOTE=Edge97;49992190]Woah, stupid? Because it requires you to successfully land headshots?[/QUOTE] (aka the one thing that sniper rifles are built for)

[editline]23rd March 2016[/editline] Also visually it's my favorite.[/QUOTE] How do you build it right to be any better than the many other basic swords? It has insanely low crit chance, super mediocre status chance, low base damage, no exclusive mods and is single target. Like being in the same class broken war has higher damage of every type, totalling almost 3x damage, higher crit, 2% lower status, same stances, less than 10% difference in attack speed, longer reach, etc.
[QUOTE=Edge97;49992190]Woah, stupid? Because it requires you to successfully land headshots?[/QUOTE] I don't know why I called it stupid. What I wanted to say was, it's not necessary for Lanka. All other snipers require it.
Isn't Lanka the only sniper rifle with bullet travel time?
[QUOTE=RocketRacer;49992755]Isn't Lanka the only sniper rifle with bullet travel time?[/QUOTE] It is.
New update adding more tenogen stuff, can't wait for all the low quality skins and models.
