Unimpressed By "Legendary" Weapons

[That guy]

Well they work with your ego. The only rank you find explosives around 100 ego+. So if your ego is like under 500 don't expect them to be fantastic but I lucked out with a grenade launching shotgun from a tier 4

[Munx]

Just give me a ego 10-100 SAW with fire dmg on it and I can ensure you that I'll beat every single of your orange non SAW weapon with like 400k - 1m dmg ahead of you in ANY dungeon. ;> So much for legendary.

Lvl progression in this game is so much worthless, I cant even describe it. The only good thing are the new perk slots, but atm you won't need more than 7 slots for an perfect pve and pvp character. So with 2k ego you're on the end of the line, with no more possible upgrades... okay maybe the 225 hp one... but in the end hp are also worthless. ;>

Afraid you would be sorely disapointed in your saws performance.

I run most weapon types for co-op dungeons, and while saw is great, it is most definatly not in a league of its own.

I can match it quite easily with: Tachmag Pulsers, Full auto rifle (12 fire rate), Grind Fraggers/Scattergun.

with a perf legendary either of those weapons would blow your common saw out of the water.



Edit: Rairon, you are kidding right? Only have one example availible in my inventory atm, but.

Heavy assault without = 466
Heavy assault with = 490

Thats a very noticeable diffrence on a semi-automatic/burst weapon, and obviously the crit multiplier benefits from this.

My TACC rifle with bonus crit damage begs to differ. It's not orange, but...

It's a sad difference. Sure it makes the weapon a bit more useful, but it is not completely game changing. (not that I want it to be)

Actually, I quite doubt you could match a FRC SAW with a Pulser or VBI AR. Also we will be dishing out the DPS while your stilling digging in the dirt for your "perfect legendary".

Now, I have seen a lot of people saying they wish to buy or sell a "legendary" weapon. I have seen stats of the weapons and all their bonuses. IMO the bonuses are so insignificant that I would hardly call the weapon legendary. My Ares FMR-3000 the default AR you get at the start of the game is pretty much the same as a legendary weapon.

Is anyone else just not impressed by them?

Not all legendary weapons suck..... If you are still using your beginning weapon then... just smh

This man KNOWS where the DPS is at. the TACC is IMO, OP it has no limitation on range and can do 406dmg a shot with a Power III mod. It will pump out a killer 6090DPS as long as you time out your bursts perfectly.

So you can't beat a legendary SAW? then you have proven that legendaries are worth it and topping the scoreboard can be done with any gun and overcharge.

Sure, maybe not all Legendarys but most of em. and yes, once my AR skill maxes out...I will be using my modded Ares FMR-3000...and still out DPSing most players.

An infector could match and beat a SAW unless you are using overcharge in which case there is really nothing that can beat a SAW, but then it would be power + SAW beating the infector and not just the gun.

This is an interesting thought, but remember the bugs CAN be killed doing no dmg to a target.
