Rail gun !

Hello battle bay !
I need a little bit advice. Anyone is playing with 2 or more rail guns on the shooter ? And if it does, are any good ?
Thinking to craft second one or scrap’em .

See ya on the bay !

 

I play with 2 rail guns on my shooter. It has a lot of burst damage potential, I find them so useful in events when everyone charges from the start. Kind of depends on what map you're playing to be fully able to take advantage. If you're in mid-fight movies, the waves are low and I blast my opponents into oblivion, there's always a target in sight. If you're in crash and burn then forget it, use your other three slots lol.

My biggest issue with dual railguns is long range battles. Once you get caught in a cross map battle where neither side advances you're almost certain to be near the bottom on damage. Your shots mostly hit waves or go flying into the air, target locking becomes an issue as you'll have someone in your sights then all of a sudden the ship disappears out of range as you fire, or the target switches and you miss, then you've got 20 or so seconds to wait before you try again.

 

17.8 seconds

 

That’s a significant buff from the old low of 20 sec.

I didn’t see the point until I got a leg from combining and then a second from achievements. At lvl 20 it will still be slightly weaker than my epic, but someday when I find the third, I’ll finally be able to break 3k dmg

 

Maybe if it was a firebomb I'd level up a duplicate weapon to level 20 legendary. But it takes 280 legendary parts to level a legen weapon to level 20 (someone correct me if I'm wrong) . Just to obtain something that'll be weaker than a level 50 epic. If you're a F2P player you should save the parts for something new.

 

2 rgs are op on a shooter, i am not a fan of easy hit - low damage weapon, it's much more effective to eliminate an enemy ship early in the game with heavy hitting weapons, plus rg is so easy to hit (still make sure u dont waste a shot)

 

I do 2 railgun now trying to do 3 it’s a great way of playing but you will not be affective on close range you need to control the battle bay staying far and aiming best setup is to mix it with a mine to make sure people don’t rush. Also have close range thing is you get rushed then a carrod or ec will help.

I do 2x railgun
1x mine
1x gr8 or sniper
1x ec

 

To each their own, but I have like 600 legendary parts and legendary is the only way I’ll wver be able to pass my epic. Sure at lvl 20 it’s a little behind, but someday when I get it to lvl 21 it will be better and at lvl 30 it’ll be scary.

 

I'm so jealous right now

 

He almost did the most damage, the more RG the better...

 

Haha yep I hate those quad rail guns, I believe zetton is one of the other guys, he must have stun perks on all of them cause I get stuck taking hit after hit without getting a shot off sometimes.

 

GS only missed once through out that game but this setup will be alot more difficult in stronger wave map like Sub Zero
