The magstorm is limited to only 2 mods for some reason. Typically I save this for the boss but I had so much ammo saved up for "Revelation" I had it out early to take out the numerous Starborn minions. It was fun XD

One is a rifle and one is a heavy weapon. Just use the one you are skilled for or that feels better for you?

Magshot if you're a pistol person. Keelhauler is lots of fun.

I've both and switch depending on available ammo. All Mag weapons get the job done but I prefer the MagStorm (as I like heavy weapons).

so no damage is better/dps differences?

I also like the magsniper for sniping. I use the magshear when its up close.

Both are equally inferior to the Beowulf, so as far as I'm concerned MagShear = MagStorm :steamthumbsup:

If you're not concerned about performance, you should just go with whichever gun you think is cooler :D

Magshear is cheaper to operate and is just as good. I prefer the Va’Ruun Inflictor. Doesn't burn through 10K ammo in every fire-fight and does great damage.

My MagSniper is supposed to do 1258 damage. Yet it I find the Hard Target .50 cal sniper rifle at around 600 damage to be more effective. It take 3 MagSniper rounds to do what two Hard Target rounds do.

(Both are fully upgraded.)

Are you full-charging Magsniper?
It only does like 1/3rd damage if you don't charge it up.
(Hard Target is better if sneak attacking for sure though.)

This might be my problem with it. How do you charge it? Is that like right-clicking on the cutter to charge it?

Hold the trigger til the gun shakes. Let go of trigger to fire.

Same. The Va'runn weapons are awesome.
