1) Do you use Advanced variants?
I use the ELM.

2) Do you use Prototype variants?
No

3) If yes to either, how often do you use them?
Once or twice every 5 or so games.

4) How much ISK do you have in your wallet?
60M

5) Do you think the ISK premium on rifle variants is fair?
Yes, I think that a merc should be able to use a better rifle because they have the skill and the money.

I just started using a standard breech AR last Thursday instead of the BPO AR I normally use. Other than that I use a BPO smg or Templar weapon. I am not a good shot so buying expensive weapons makes no sense. I spend my ISK on logi stuff and modules.

Hello Robot Devil! I believe there was a miscommunication here. By advanced variants and prototype variants, I mean advanced and prototype versions of rifle variants, with the list of what that entails in the original post. The ELM-7 is an advanced variant of the laser rifle, but it is not an advanced version of a rifle variant, which is what this thread is about. Hope that clears things up.

I heard a guy in EVE say that T2 guns allow you to dictate range better and I the thrust of what he's saying is that T2 in only moderately better. The slide upward shouldn't be linear and shouldn't bring that much of an advantage. This keeps the weapons powerful but not unbeatable. GÇ£No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind.
