You have 2 Carthum Assaults, which is disturbing to say in the least.
Have you tried the CAR Burst? The Basic KLO-1? Those are honestly good choices and the Assault is great, but it is a CPU/PG hog for a slightly better version of the Basic. |

I have not tried the burst variants as I assumed they were borderline useless like every other Burst weapon in game. Although I suppose I should give them a try at least.
I actually started this fit with basic Scramblers and advanced through the levels. So yes I have spent some time with two KLO's but I found the low ROF compared to assault variants keeps me from being able to be really as aggressive as I can be with the Carthums. Also CPU and PG are same as ADV assault so it's not too much of an issue for me.
Try the Burst Variants, they are beastly but ammo consuming.
I use the assaults as well, a lot actually, but the ADV+ Assaults are almost hyper for me. The approach is almost like an SMG. The KLO-1 is a solid gun but still imposes the pistol attitude. Breach is sweat breaking, having standoffs with a heavy with a Breach is nerve racking but it's so powerful I've 2 Shotted heavies before.
I really like all the variants though (haven't tried tactical though) it's just that the Assault, like the AR can dominate Niches. |

If you look at the range thread, there's no advantage to using burst over assault, and for scrambler pistols I have found that range is extremely important. I have L4 prof on my alt I believe.
Oh but have you not committed the point blank Burst Scrambler Pistol (BurSP) headshot? It is a magnificent thing. As well as the fact that it has a very high DPS when shot accurately though harder due to lower accuracy rating. |

I have been finding a SMG/SMG fit to be working well for me, but I might be interested in trying a Scrambler Pistil/SMG fit.
In my experience with SMG the advantages of running with a sidearm is that they are light, which means:
- They track faster then a shotgun if your target is jumping around.
- You sprint faster with a sidearm out.
- When you come out of a sprint the sidearm is usable immediately. With a Shotgun I would accidentally hit the sprint for a moment in a fight and be dead before I could bring the Shotgun to bear again.
- Weapon switch is fast.
- Reload is fast, at least for the SMG (although weapon switch is faster).
I was running a complete Militia Scout SMG/Pistol set up. It was not very combat effective, was more like a special operations suit. It was good for chasing down fleeing enemies who took some damage, and was good at the medic role because of its peed. |
