Hi there! Relatively new to the game, but I'm beginning to get the hang of things. TL
R at the bottom.
Put most of my certs into LA and Infil as those see the most playtime and I've got those kitted out with weaponry that suits my playstyle. I fare far better in +20m engagements than the insanity that is a 200 pop. Biolab so naturally that pushes me towards weapons that perform better at range.
Which leads me to my question(s):
What primary weapons would you suggest for a predominantly long range playstyle? For LMG and AR, that is.
I have a nice bolt action for sniping and the Artemis + Vandal to fill the scout rifle slots. But it's the weaponry for other classes that has me stumped.
The Pulsar C has treated my LA well, but that's as far as I get. Not a fan of the Orion, but the Corvus feels great on my medic even without attachments.
It seems as though the 167@10m weapons are more suited for range (Pulsar C, Corvus, Ursa/Flare), but being new I'm not 100% certain and don't want to make a dumb purchase with SC or my precious certs.
Is there any benefit to taking a CQC Carbine over an SMG?
That should be everything, thanks in advance!

What are the best options for long range weaponry available to VS?
What traits should I be looking for to define a longer range weapon? (Damage model, recoil, etc)
Is there any reason to use a Carbine like the Serpent over an SMG?
I ADS a lot.
Thanks.
