Am i making a mistake?

So, as i never had performance issues again since the latest update, i’m working on something on the side, made a few PVE games, it’s going ok. ( PVE phase )
I will post this to another topic when it’s closest to conclusion, now what brings me here

At first sight, Cyclones seems to be all i would like but they are just too sluggish for my taste, even rapiers feels a lot better or Ac 62’s.

This is the "default " WIP ( work in progress )

But then i remembered i have a AC-80

And i like it a bit more, it feels a bit better, i can’t speak objectively cause i don’t concrete numbers have but it “feels” quicker doing damage.

Am i making a mistake?

please advice

you mean the stillwind?

the stillwind is more for tap firing and precision at long distance. these are more for picking off weapons and sniping.
the cyclones are more for barraging the enemy with quick, rapid fire shots. they are not made for accuracy or tap firing.

both of them combined are decent but nothing to write home about imo.
3 stillwinds far out damage 2 or 3 cyclones by quite a bit. i think it has to do with the penetration ability of the stillwind being a single shot gun it has to have better explosions in the bullets to make up for its slow firing.

imo its not really a mistake but i say experiment around with it.

It has more blast damage than the cyclone, perhaps it’s why it feels better with a cyclone than with only 2 cyclones.
And it works letting it rip down the range.
Cyclones when are shooting faster, I don’t feel the pay off that i think it should bring, but at the same time AC-62’s they are out of their depth at that PS, i like their rate of fire but they are too weak for 15K
Perhaps AC64’s?
For a moment, i thought in swapping the cyclones for a couple of reapers… I don’t know
