Bullseye Backup - Wildfire vs. Bingo

[Einherjar]

I see a lot of people take the Bingo sniper over the Wildfire for Bullseye backup, but why? Why take the sniper over the pistol? Imo, the pistol has a lot more versatility..

Bingo can still handle ads pretty easily even without heavy weakspot damage where as wildfire is pretty much useless as a viable damage dealing weapon. Also Bingo only needs 1 shot while swapping to it to mark where as wildfire can take several shots.

The only needing 1 shot is a good point.. As for how they are as damage dealing weapons, seem rather moot if you only use them for the effect?

More like close to 300, but yeah.. I still think the pistol is viable though, due to the faster fire rate in case you are unlucky with the first shot
