Well, rarity is an important factor to think about in terms of the market demand. Quality and Quantity are both factors which contribute to price, though more important is perceived quality and perceived quantity.

Purple or blue is the way to go in most cases. If you think the rarity tree matters, you are doing something wrong.
In response to the OP, most people go for Orange weapons because they are "rare" Not rare enough in my opinion. But eh.
Personally I think those bonuses are next to worthless. EGO recharge on reload is nice, but there's a perk that gives it to you for any weapon. That's fairly unique, as most weapon bonuses cannot be had in anywhere near the same capacity from perks. You cannot for instance get 1.25 crit from a perk, the closest is a bit of hip fire crit. Damage, reload, accuracy, etc are all exclusive to weapon bonuses. As such, I'd much rather see a weapon have those than something that I can add as a perk.Quote:

But as you go higher in rarity, you do get additional rolls. Whether those rolls are crap or not are completely chance, same as the rolls on a lower rarity weapon. So with that being said:
Whites have 1 bonus, Greens have 2, Blues Have 2, Purples have 3 bonuses, and Oranges have 4 bonuses (Except for Orange BMGs that have 3 bonuses)
Here is where it gets tricky. Certain weapons have yet another bonus roll (all types of Assault Rifles, all SMGs (expect the VOT Pulser), and the VOT Disruptor LMG only that can come with this additional bonus. It also should be noted that any rarity of these weapons from the 1600 to 1800 EGO range and up, including White weapons, can get this bonus!).
With that being said, those weapons come like this:
Whites can have 2 bonuses (counting mastery), Greens can have 3, Blues can have 3, Purples can have 4, and Oranges can have 5
So yes, those rolls all have a chance to suck. But then there is yet another factor not mentioned here when it comes to weapon rarity. The XP bonus roll. Green weapons will not share the same stats in this bonus as a blue, a blue is lesser than a purple, and the orange will get the top bonus. Take for example the green AR in that pic on the 1st post. The green bonus listed is x1.06 mag. If it were an orange, that roll would be x1.15 mag. The XP bonus roll is the only roll that increases in rarity.
If your guns were orange, the first one would have Take 12% less damage while reloading, the 2nd and 4th gun would have 12% damage from above, and we already covered the 3rd.
Here is a great chart:
Mastery Bonus - for White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange
DMG - 1.01, 1.02, 1.03, 1.04, 1.05

As you can see, some bonuses only appear the higher the rarity. Some only come on oranges. Sure, a green could have great rolls and an orange could have all crap rolls, but to say that a green is better than an orange is wrong.
All that info can be found in Maverick's guide, which is linked in my signature
This is just pointing out to those that think only orange regardless of what the stats are is always best choice. These people obviously can not read but just look at color.
Definitely agree on that. Glad on PS3 NA people value a great purple just as good as an orange. Greens tho, well they still are overlooked. Blues make great keepers but only if you find them. No one buys a blue, no matter how good they are (not saying I agree with that, but that's how it is).Quote:

I sold and give all of my orange weapons , didn`t seen any thing special on them.
My load out is made of purple, blue, green and even some white weapons.
And i sometimes sell blue weps at a better price then of the purple ones i get.
I`m allways in need of inventory space.
184 slots and in need of more ;)
Empty space never stays empty, I have 152 slots and try to keep at least 10 free. Once i max more weapon skills it will be easier... in theory. game just gives me too much choice.
Yeah, don`t really know why people complain so much :)Quote:
