I cannot kill anything with the Dreiss. I just a cobalt arty and have always used the BR with arty. I couldn’t kill a single person with the gun. I think it really needs to be addressed. :’(
Dreiss AR needs to change
It needs to change to the way it was before the Redeye patch, it was one of my favorite weapons in the game back then. There’s basically no reason to use it over the BR-16 now since not only does it have far inferior killing power but it also has worse perks and the only advantage is higher ammo capacity.
Try to stick with it for a while. Remember that it’s best used at long ranges since the RedEye update, that reduced hugely his DPS by removing a part of it’s RPM but increased it’s stability by a large margin on the other hand, making it sit at 125 dps from 150 dps (yes, it was in insane, but it was also much more efficient at close range). Arty is now the long range merc he was intended to be from the start, don’t play him like a sniper, but take your distances. Oh and don’t ADS too much : you’re not a sniper, just a long range merc.
Also, don’t hesitate to switch on your Secondary for finishing people : they have a higher fire rate overall, so they’re more reliable.
Personally I feel like if they want the Dreiss to be an accuracy weapon like the Burst Rifles, it needs that 150 dps as well.
The Grandeur has that I think, it deals about 160 per second.

Grandeur’s DPS is 150 indeed. Stark-AR and BR-16 are 165 dps weapons. Well, this feels pretty insane IMO.
I can easily kill people with the dreiss. I love using it when I can’t get kills with the grandeur on redeye.
