whats your go to weapons early game?

[Grizzly]

i had a hard time to find something id like that is not RNG to get and thats not the LMG lmao
by now i unlocked the starkiller and its actually a very good rifle so i stick to that. as secondary usually the SMG from the Summoner as it can be found early and is not RNG if you dont start summoner, and while its not that great, its pretty nice for the early game as i usually end up taking an RNG secondary at some point

Melee i actually just switch depending what looks best atm most of the time

Go to would be Rusty Lever action, a sword, and silverback model 500.

Asylum Losomn was my first area, so I had access to the Double Barrel early on and used it alongside the Huntmaster M1 for most of my first playthrough.

Blackmaw AR-47 or Wrangler 1860, both are available from the very beginning (can be bought from the guy by the shooting range, no rng) and are both very solid, balanced allrounders. On my main, I think I went with the Blackmaw for like 100 hours before swapping.

Rusty Level Action? Why not the Wrangler 1860 for a similar weapon that can also use a mod?

I have difficulty picking a primary early game. If I don't like the secondary though, I'll replace it with the mp60.

Probably blackmaw, but it does run out of ammo quite fast. Does pair well with mp60 tho since you can clear trash with sidearm and use primary for more important moments when you need that dps.

The Huntmaster M1, Bonesaw and Western Classic are my favorite early-game guns. I ended up getting the Rupture Cannon pretty early in my first playthrough so I used that for a long time.

Pulse Rifle. Aim that thing at a weak spot and land three hits fast af

[Ergosensi]

Something that hits hard, and something that shoots fast.

I got the pulse rifle really early on and am still using it after leveling 5 classes to 10 or so.
Three round burst is just great in many ways, ammo conservation, etc. it is very accurate, good range, decent damage and lets me run lots of combos since it doesn't have a built in mod. Plus I like being the teched out guy in the fantasy lovecraft nightmare so it fits.

I have a hard time dropping the labyrinth staff for similar reasons since it generates mod power.

I started in Yaesha and went from the starter guns straight to the Crossbow and Sorrow. Merciless came soon after. Played with those a lot early game. I'm using the 'no aiming needed' Monarch and Enigma atm.

I miss the Beam Rifle from R1 so much, I know there's a Plasma Cutter in R2, but it's so hard to get, I managed to finish all achievements before finding the Navigator's Helm. Ran the first half of the game with the 7-shot sniper and the hand shotgun from N'erud. Funds were too tight to experiment much.

uh your a bit wrong about that, the plasma cutter is very easy to get as long as you get the RNG with the stomping buildings. everything else from then on is a guarantee

I've done that event, killed all the zombies inside and found no helm.
EDIT: Maybe I just missed it.

yeah the zombie is in a own room, when you go around the corner to the chest, instead of going left to where the chest is, look to the front and go the wall along to the right, that way you end up in that room. the zombie is not gonna move unless you attack him

Yaaass, I miss it too, Beam Rifle was my go to. loved it! The radiation staggers, sustained ramping damage and pinpoint accuracy, it could use any mod, and i just loved the sound and feel of it <3
I do not have the same love for the Plasma cutter at all, it's damage is lackluster compared to beam rifle and other sustained damage (full auto) weapons, it overheats, has no elemental damage or effect, and the mod feels quite meh.. I dunno.. I was really hoping for it to be a beam rifle 2.0, but I was mostly disappointed..

A worthy mention for fave gun from R1 is the Devastator <3 I really miss that heavy bleed <3 and the big "ka-chunk... PLANG!!" sounds ^_^
