Hi, i-Śm an old TF2 player, and I really enjoyed alot of CQC with burst dmg with the Pyro class. Currently i am playing around with some weapons in Dust and wanted to get some feedback on what setup to focus on in the Uprising patch:
Setup 1 (LR w. SMG, Assault suit):
- Use together with flux grenades in CQC to provide a good un-shielded enemy for SMG ownage.
- This setup is great, it covers short range and medium range, has a lot of burst dmg if played correctly.
- Drawback of high CPU usage(?) of LR and SMG.
Setup 2 (AR w. SMG/Scrambler/Future machine pistol, Assault suit)
- This setup feels more versatile somehow.
- Drawback of not having really good medium range weapon, such as the LR.
Any people experienced with similar setups?

Thanks for the detailed replies, I appreciate your answers alot!
I thought this section would be good to post in for discussions about fittings.
Plasma flamethrower?! OMG, I hope I will be able to fit that on an assault suit.
One problem is that I really have a hard time using the AR. LR works out fine for me, but the AR has not clicked with me yet (maybe I just need to get better?)
And also, I kind of like to kite back from players in this game, its great fun!
I will probably run LR since im good with it, and rely on AR squadmates (that are more skilled with the AR) to keep me from getting killed at medium range.
Is the LR frequently used in corp battles though? I think of the LR as a great way to guard objectives while the SMG could be more of a storm trooper when trying to take objectives.
Viziam Laser Rifle
Max Range: 84m
Optimal Range: 62 - 79m
Meta Level: 8
M209 Assault Submachine Gun
Max Range: 43m
Optimal Range: 1 - 17m
Meta Level: 6
Does this mean 18-61m is gimped if I run a LR+SMG combo??
What kind of damage decay have CCP implemented after lets say 17 m?
Yeah, I agree that AR is not OP. I dont understand what people are whining about. You cannot compare apples and pears really.
As a LR user of course you get pissed off when you dont notice a skilled shotgun scout sneaking up on you for a 1HK, however, in that case you can only blame yourself for having poor scanning ability and knowledge about your surroundings ;-)
