My Loadouts, Your Opinions (I Want Them)

(TheWalkinDude) #1

Here are the loadouts I use for the Mercs I own/play:

I also have a gold loadout for Bushwhacker and silver loadouts for Phantom and Sawbonez, but I don’t consider them anywhere near as good as the bronze ones above:

Just wanting to get feedback, as I see these as the best layouts for the Mercs I own.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Criticism? That’s what I’m looking for!

Aura - Good
Bushwhacker - Good
Fragger - Fine
Nader - Good
Phantom - Good
Proxy - Never played her, can’t say
Rhino - Good
Sawbonez - The silver at the bottom is better, but compared to CR73, it’s not great.
Skyhamer - Good

These are for the first lot you listed, except Sawbonez.

SM-9 and Blishlok are pretty bad SMG’s. I suggest finding KEK-10 or Crotzni alternatives.

Not sure why, but CR73 didn’t really appeal to me when I was choosing which loadouts to buy…Looking at it now, though, it does seem like a clearly better choice. Maybe I’ll pick it up. TBH, SM72 is working pretty well for me.

You should. She’s a h3ll of a lot more useful than Bushwhacker in most situations, in my opinion. Definitely worth spending the cash/credits on…

Having Potent Packs and Get Up on the same card is enough alone, but it also has the added bonus of Crotzni, which is great, and Mechanic is alright.

I don’t mind the SMG-9 at all, I seem to be able to manage the recoil just fine. I do dislike the Blishlok, but in Bushwhacker’s case, the augments outweighed the primary weapon (I tend to use BW solely for objective push)

(TheWalkinDude) #8

Yeah, I’m probably going to pick it up when I get home from work. TY for the input; that’s exactly why I made this thread :slight_smile:

What to say about them? Bronze isn’t worth talking, since best loadouts, so yeh.
Your silvers/golds are…Okay.

Bronze isn’t worth talking about? The whole point of this thread was to get opinions on the quality of my loadouts, not to brag up what the RNG trade-up system managed to hand me…

I play Fletcher for my engineer and I don’t like the idea of having more than one in my squad. I also prefer the mercs that can take more than a couple hits, allows me to recover from my mistakes easier. :stuck_out_tongue:

Usually I would go for the loadouts with the better weapons than better augments, but you are totally right in this case, the augments are enough to make the first Bushwhacker better than the other one.

She’s so fast, though, and her mines deploy just as quickly. I haven’t played Fletcher, so I can’t really compare, but I personally love Proxy; She’s my go-to engineer. Nothing like arming an objective and dropping a pair of mine all inside 12 seconds or so…usually with enough time to get the h3ll out of there before anybody shows up to kill me :smiley:

honestly if you prefer those loadouts over others use them. Everyone has their prefered augment/weapon/skin combos. Use what you like, what works for your playstyle. Everyone will suggest different loadouts based on their prefered setup.

(Fleshpound) #14

Change Proxy loadout.if you can(i can give some examples later for nice Proxy loadouts).

Sawbonez-Both are fine(One is more on health regen while another is for quick full revives)

Rhino-Good

Phantom-Both are good(Phantom with flying pig can really help you to avoid enemies :I)

Aura-Good

Bushwhacker-Bronze card is good but that gold card loadout is not useful :I)

Skyhammer-Fine

Fragger-Idk about that loadout since i didn’t tested it

Nader-Good

Edit:I do not watch on colors or ranks of loadouts.

(TheWalkinDude) #15

More than anything, I just wanted to get people’s view on what I considered the best loadouts. So far, as a result of this discussion, I’ll be working towards CR73 for Sawbonez, or I may just buy it when I get home from work, tonight :slight_smile:

(TheWalkinDude) #16

Proxy’s loadout works really, really well for me - especially the pineapple juggler augment. I’d be really interested to see your suggestions for her.

Care to elaborate on what you don’t like about these two cards?
