I got 12 ranks, mostly spent on my titan and so far got helmet and arms. So yeah, armor is rare as fuck, just like the faction grind. At least the guns drop almost every time. Got all of those. Or most of them, didnt check. Pulse is pretty good and it competes in PvP, People claiming the SMG is good, but I tried it and still like my Antilope-D better. Its better than others, but still range is an issue. Scout is OK, not for PvP though. Sidearm, there is only one for PvP, hehe and its not that one. The fusion is good but charge rate is retarded slow, I like the other ones better, like the crucible one, that charges a bit faster. AR is pretty good, kind of like a semi better Scatherlocke. The grenade launcher is OHK if you manage to land a grenade on the person. But I dont even bother with grenade launchers in PvP. So yeah, its AR, Pulse and maybe the SMG if youre into a bullethose SMG at close range type of playstyle. I would rather use the last hope, lol. Other than that the guns are pretty shit and you will just use up bank slots, lol.
Oh yeah, hand cannon is good, but slow firing, So its a bit unforgiving so its decent if you can land your headshots.
