    Just stick em in your arkfall loadout and save em for crystals/boss weakpoints. I said where appropriate; I even prefer a SAW when things get too hot.

    I hate wolfhounds, although I'll admit they do out DPS everything else. I'll stick to wolverines whenever I need a pistol, but I'm more of an AR and shotgun player.

    Hey dont let the doubters get to you you have two videos about why use a wolfhound. They still choose to ignore that fact.

    I can usually outperform people with orange saws in most aspects of tue game with a green or blue wolfhound. Run co-ops with it, all arkfalls (minus hellbug extermination) and pvp. Outperform most people with what other would consider a "garbage" weapon because its green or blue. I have 12 max experienced wolfhounds in my inventory. 9of those being the 5.0-5.3 crit variety.

    These people will continue using their saw for one simple fact. They can't aim very well and are the spray and pray types. Those people who can't aim won't be benefit from a wolfhound they will stick to the saw.

    If you have skill try a wolfhound.
    When will you learn.

    I've tried it, it's good though I run out of ammo fast, but that brown finish with cave markings? Yuck! Can't stand the gun.

    As much as it's effective, as a gun I'm not too fond of it outside destroying the Arkfall's weak spots.

    I prefer the fast firing one, but overall to that, no pistol at all.

    Been thinking about trying the story with nothing but snipers and pistols, so I may have to try this.

    Any mod recommendations?

    I love wolfhounds, but the one in the video is not just any wolfhound. Accuracy is too high, bloom too low, and mag too high. Seems like one with fairly decent weapon bonuses at the very least

    The Wolfhound in the video bashes out 5064 each hit for 17 rounds and then 6077 with another 20.
    Total of 207628 DMG.

    A Wolfhound has a 16 rounds, 354 std DMG and a 4.0x Crit = 1416 DMG a crit hit.

    A SAW has a 94 rounds, 400 std DMG with a 1.5x Crit = 600 DMG a crit hit.

    So, my guess is that if it had been a saw in the video:

    * More then 37 bullets would have been used, and the Hulker would go up in the middle of the clip. If only 37 bullets would have been dashed out, it would have gathered around 80 000 DMG.

    * It would have taken a lot longer and the possibility to have a Hulker charging in middle of shooting.

    I've scrapped more than 5 blue Wolfhounds thus far as I'm not a pistol guy. Now I'm searching for one...

    I assume Era has the same weapon skill of LMG and Pistols in this example.

    Are my calculations correct?

    What are the stats of the wolfhound used in the video.

    Is the max xcrit 5.4?
    One WH I modded showed 5.5 in the mod screen when selecting a 1.15 crit barrel, but after it was attached it dropped back to 5.4
