Br-14 is horrible

[Creamy Freak]

Low mag size
High recoil despite mediocre damage
Very small ammo pool

The Defender SMG still remains the best "assault rifle" in the game, it does 5 less dmg than the BR-14, twice the ammo pool and mag size, virtually no recoil, very long range and its one handed.

Why does Arrowhead they hate rifles so much?

[Silverlight]

They hate spray and prayers more than anything. Just use the fire breaker. They made that for you.

Sickle begs to differ, sorry.

SIckle is a really meh gun. It does the exact same thing the p-19 does- making it very redundant .
Fire breaker can at least burn down mediums.
Try harder.

Yeah considering their big brained "buff" for the Liberator Pen. was to just give it full auto without actually fixing the main issue which is it's pathetic base damage and lower magazine capacity. They really do not know what they are doing, but again, when you have a team that can only do tier 3 maximum difficulty it starts to make sense, that and incompetence.

The sickle is a primary which has theoretically infinite ammo and is a very high capacity before burning a heatsink.
Sickle is both good for light targets due to it's generous ammo reserves and against mediums due to it's precision allowing it to hit their weakpoints reliably. Devastators, hive guards, and brood guards are quite easy to handle with it.

It's not even in competition with the p19, which is a secondary with a mere 30 round magazine.

[Prowler™]

Most of the primaries are pretty meh
Most of the rifles are straight up bad
The shotguns simply preform better in the vast majority of situations
The biggest brain players have been using stalwart/slugger for a long time tho

Sickle is basically a more precise stalwart in the primary slot and p-19 would bury any automatic rifle if it wasn't for its small ammo cap.
If replacing a support weapon is "meh", then your scale of measurement is way off

Yeah his takes are pretty bad honestly, clearly trying too hard to white knight for Arrowhead and pretend to be a badass.

Still doesn't make sense how an SMG does more damage than a rifle.

Yeah, only Arrowhead..

[Sayo]

Try the dominator.

[J.P.]

honestly, it is kind of good IF you have a good sniping position and can stay aimed in but the slow ass reload, like can't it be semi-auto lol

worthless up close

I would rather the pre-nerf slugger tbh

agreed on dominator, that's my go to now since the slugger nerf, I use scorcher sometimes also

So basically treat it like a Scorcher or Dominator?

[Pooh]

Scorcher or bust.
