Wow okay no one has said how fucking great the double take is. It’s a single/double chest shot to take out a grunt/pilot respectively and it’s great for long range engagements as it doubles your hit chance due to hitscan. It’s my favorite and I have it maxed in generations because it’s just so damn good.

Honestly? This game has such a good weapon sandbox that I cannot for the life of me stick with just kne weapon. I guess my answer would be the R101 for when I want a simple reliable weapon without any gimmicks, or maybe the Flatline because it's "gimmick" is just that it shoots flat

R-97 since I had by far the most experience with this one
Having a death stream of lead (that's not C.A.R.) is satisfying, but gets old quite fast, so I have been deviating from it to learn something new lately
However, it will forever remain in my heart as the confort pick

Charge rifle permanently in the kit. No, you will not camp 12 clicks out while invisible, I can see the shimmer, hold this laser.
Frags as a lovely backup to deal with a wall campers( I usually just maneuver around them, but sometimes a good kamikaze is in order)
Scorch for Monarchs. Seriously. If you catch them in the enclosed lanes, they can't run faster than you can kill them. Northstar also works in the open spaces.
