Evaluate my setup please

I'm using Mk3 shooter at lvl 18, thinking of going enforcer/shooter.

I've got an epic sniper and an epic flare gun(currently not using it).

Could you guys help me out with these please:

A) Thinking of buying a rare big torpedo. Should I get it or stick with what I have? Rare big torpedo vs rare explosive cannon, which is better?

B) What setup would be best? I'm definitely not giving up my epic sniper.
-I love to play my rare Long Range Mortar.
-I think I would love big torpedo but not sure what to match it up with?
-would it be a waste to not use my Epic Flare Gun?

 

I would suggest using
1: Epic Sniper, Epic Flare Gun (For combo damage with your sniper, try to buy damage amplify perks when target is burning) and weapon of your choice (not sure if big Torpedo would fit there)

2: Use Enforcer and use a big Torpedo, a Cannon (not sniper, it has too much cooldown) and a frost blaster for combo damage with your Torpedo.

3: Same as 1 but only with "weapon of your choice being the explosive Cannon WITH !really important! Damage amp perks for extra burn damage

If you have any questions just quote me and I'll be around
Hope it helped and

Shooter mk3 with your items id go with epic sniper and epic flare, since they are all long cooldown as a shooter you NEED regular cannon. So with current setup you should consider these options:
1 sniper, flare and cannon
2 sniper flare and long mortar
3 sniper, long mortar and cannon
Down the road if you go shooter you need cannon, sniper, long mortar and torpedo + whatever best option is available.
Also I'd recommend using turbo and bandage instead of shield.

I'm mk5 shooter with cannon, blast cannon, long mortar, missile and big torpedo. Bandage and turbo.

Do not waste resources on rare items. Wait for epics and above

 

Thank you for your suggestions! Yes I will invest in my flare gun to be used in higher levels

 

Thanks for the explanation and suggestions! And yes when I'm mk5 as well, I'm considering LR mortar, and big torpedo. But why bandage over standard shield? Is it wise to use both?

 

Not really wise, but you can do it...
I think that bandage is better than shield because when you have a careful playstyle it can give you way more health than you expect it to

For example
A standard shield = +150 hp

A bandage = 15 hp every 5 seconds = 150 hp after 50 seconds...

So you basically get a shield every 50 seconds, only that you don't have more base health, just Regeneration of your current health

It really depends on the user, but I personally prefer bandage

If you're a REALLY offensive guy then I'd prefer a shield, but not that much that I would 100% use it
Maybe 65%
As I said, it really depends on the user

If you have any further questions, just quote my comment and I'll be around

Torps require stupidity from your opponent or sheer dumb luck to hit. Anything you can aim is bettet than torp.

 

Frost blaster+ swift torpedo could work though

 

You could try it. But frost plus mortar would be higher percentage

 

Standard shield just doesn't give you enough leverage but with a bandage you can move around and heal up. Standard shield is only good as a combo with big shield for defender at mk5 imo. Defender is the ONLY class that should ever consider standard shield and only due to point requirements.

 

Wow I didn't know that! So I should use bandage + turbo for now and aim towards bandage + turbo + big shield? This is for shooter

For enforcer? What should the blue slots be?
