It can't be helped. They have no inherent weaknesses. High damage, great accuracy, incredible stability, good ammo capacities... These might have been justifiable if run and gun or hip fire was just as worthless as shooting down even the sights of a Tampa, but nope, they rock in the run'n'gun scenario as well. I can't find a single flaw with either of them. Every other weapon in their respective categories has at least a single short-coming of some kind.

yeah I don't blame you for using them, it's just frustrating as I'm not one to find and use the "best" gun in a game, i prefer using the gun I enjoy the playstyle of the most, and (hopefully) do alright while using it.

For my medium build, supporting medic I use rokstedi with scope & kross. Rhett was nice, but lil too unstable for the range I wanted & I found Euston way to inaccurate with massively slow reload. I think all the guns are balanced nicely for diff play styles, but the majority of players are spray & prayer's so they go for the high powered bullet hoses & run in close where they work. Dont believe they're OP. I do very well with my rokstedi & calmly putting slugs in the charging waves of bullet sponges lol

The main benefit of the Euston is that its rapidfire in an AR. I haven't tried the Rhett yet though. I actually have done pretty well with a Drognav and a Carb. The Carb is my favorite SMG right now due to its stopping power. Throw in a drum clip and you can deluge the area in fire, great for lights too. Of course, the heavy can carry a MG and a AR...



The Rhett's main advantage is that it is very stable. You can just hold down the button and you will have a very small cone of fire. You can just fire on full auto with a high degree of accuracy. However, it also has a small ammo count and doesn't do much damage per bullet in comparison to the Euston so you tend to run out of ammo quickly. The Euston has higher damage, but more recoil. It is also has good ammo capacity. Hence, the Euston has more potential, but takes more skill to handle.

The Rockstedi is nice. It's a shame I play in Singleplayer mostly, I die so damn much I can't get much fun in unless I play with ridiculously powerful weapons.

Hahaha when I am a heavy soldier I use the rhett as primary ((slow equip speed) and then the gerund because they both have very high stability which means I hit them with every shot which means faster kills which means I don't die as often which means I can guard my teammates which means they can do objectives which means I win which means 15% bonus yay.
