Sickle, for sure. If you pace your fire properly, it’s got the best ammo economy out of any primary (outside of the Blitzer, maybe). The armor pen leaves a lot to be desired, but aiming in first-person is accurate enough that you can shoot around armor or target small weak points from afar with relative ease in a lot of cases.

Unless it’s a hot planet and I’m expecting a lot of engagements, in which case I’ll go back to the Slugger. It feels like overkill for most enemies, but damn is it satisfying to use. I especially love the Slugger’s sound design, it’s got such a satisfying "kachunk"y feel to it.

Breaker Spray and pray for bugs.

Dominator, great single shot control of most medium and small enemies. I’m a mid/close range accuracy guy so it suits me well.

A fellow penetrator enjoyer! The medium armor penetration is just too damn handy. I’ve tried switching it up but I always end up coming back.

The slugger is probably my #2, followed by the regular sg225 (auto shotty).

I’ve started using SG-8P Punisher Plasma. I am a big fan of just exploding wave after wave, though I still need practise with it.

Used Recoilless Rifle stratagem previously. But now I switched to Quasar Cannon which lets me use a Rover to help deal with melee. Considering buying the Senator for taking out un-armored targets at long ranges.
