What is more important for PVP/Time to kill

[DRUNK_CANADIAN]

Aim assist or handling?

And is it weapon dependant.... for instance which is a better stat on pulse rifles. Which is better on autorifles, or no difference. And talking for pure PVP sweat mode lol

Handling is how quickly you can use the gun when switching or coming out of a sprint. It also affects how quickly you aim down sights.

Aim assist is how accurate you need to be with your aim for your shots to land.

I would prioritize Handling first, up to the point that you're comfortable with how your weapon behaves to your controls. There are mods and weapon perks that can also affect those behaviors, so it's up to the roll you have and what you're comfortable with.

I find myself valuing Handling a lot more after having tried a few weapons where the speed was so slow, I was losing fights because I just couldn't shoot my gun before the other person could theirs.

Aim assist is nice, but there are so many desync, lag, and connection issues with the server that it can be hard to notice if it is having an effect in PvP.

I too tend to favor handling because of the reasons you mentioned, but I've also found some guns with like extremely low handling still ready relatively fast so :S

I am noticing that as well, hip firing with high aim assist is actually more reliable, and since my monitor is crazy huge ultrawide I can basically see them from outter space so I tend to favor hip firing for the instant dmg

Aim Assist, I guess? TTk has more of a factor from things like: damage perks, optimal hits, how far you're shooting someone.
