Barrage.

edit: not the most powerful gun in the world, but mine has +250% after Phasecast and my Phasezerker has +45% (or so) Dahl crit dmg. Brrt brrt brrt <3

I’m with you on the Helix, I’ve found it to be a great weapon.
I haven’t tested out very many, but there does seem to be several good options,
Laser Sploder, Kaos, Faisor, Barrage, Shredifier.

Atlas carrier or Atlas Q system. Both staples in every build I’ve had in BL3.

The Dictator in cryo on Zane. Also really like the Carrier but otherwise I think assault rifles could use a buff since pistols smgs and shottys perform better.

Dictator is by far my favorite AR. I always had a soft spot for Shreddifier/Faisor/Kaos as well, all just feel great to shoot.

My Top 5 ARs

  1. Rowan’s Call
  2. Alchemist
  3. Lucien’s Call
  4. Laser Sploder
  5. Dictator

Honorable Mention: Barrage

favorite always bekah

most used one dictator cuz it is dumb af

It changes a bit depending on which VH I use. But overall the following have been really good, in no particular order:

Roland’s Call
Cost Effective Q System
Optimized Carrier
Breath of the Dying (My current favourite wrecking everything in DLC)
Shocking Trained Kaos
Nuclear Faisor
Pa’s Rifle

I’m quite liking ARs in this game

Depends on the circumstances, some are better for large mobs while others are better for one on one and small groups.

For most of the time I like using a Barrage. I like the high fire rate combined with the pinpoint accuracy. It’s easy to put two fast bursts into critical hits and take down most normal enemies in less than a second. Badasses usually take 4 to 5 bursts, but still just over a second and they’re down.

For large mods I tend to go for an Alchemist or Lucian’s Call. If there’s a lot of anointed I’ll always go for my cryo Lucian’s. It’s the one thing that can stop a mob of 5 anointed in their tracks.

Been mostly using my fire laser sploder for annoiteds. I did recently get a cryo i havent field tested yet. Will have to try it. For melee enemys it my terminator shotgun hands down. I have yet to find another legendary or other that can burn single targets so well.

Ogre! I’m still waiting on my dream drop item of a x2 Double Ogre with +50% Incendiary damage on ASE.

I like the Faisor a lot. It just feels more satisfying to use and is by far not as ammo hungry as for instance the Shredifier. It’s my primary cryo weapon on Zane.

The Dictator
Rowens Call
luciens call
Faisor
But none of those matter to the Recursion.
Best rocket launcher Recursion
Best shotgun Recursion
Best sniper Recursion

The best sniper is One Pump Chump

Rebel Yell is good on Zane so why not that. Ogre, Shredifer or Rowan’s Call are cool though they’re very similar legendaries

Barrage is great!

I’m trying to get into using ARs more as I’ve been playing since I never really used them in past games. The Faisor was the first one I used all the way up to endgame in my normal mode playthrough. I finally got a level 50 one while playing this DLC!

Besides that, I’ve really taken a liking to the Lucian’s Call, Carrier, and Star Helix.

In terms of most exploitable, I’ll have to name the Carrier. With the current bonus elemental damage glitch, it can spawn up to 6 ricocheting bullets instead of the intended 1, depending on gear and skills. Being the only weapon I’m aware of that ricochets back to the enemy hit, this is a beast against bosses. Every hit spawning 6 bullets homing in on that same enemy? Yeah why not.
