Alright, i have been playing light assault a lot, i started with infil but i feel like LA has much more uses than the infils stealth, I have gotten thousands of kills with the solstice burst so far, and i love shooting people from rooftops and trees. Which gun would you recommend as my next step, I am thinking either Solstice SF with underslung grenades or smoke grenades, or the vx 6-7. I will probably use this gun on the engineer too so i am leaning towards the Solstice SF for infinite grenades but i heard they are really bad now. Opionions?
If you like sniping people as an LA a shotgun with slugs would be my pick. Beats any carbine on long range. I recommend Nova. Replacing the default gun with another carbine doesn't make much of a difference. Also you can switch to buckshots which makes the shotgun a best CQC weapon in this game. Especially now when they buffed it (I dont know why) its even better at that.
I'm using the Serpent with a HS/NV scope, Forward grip and Soft point ammo for night missions atm, it works wonderfully. Coupled with smoke grenades and C4, Sunderers don't stand a chance. I find the Solstice SF is over rated, but it's cheap, so give it a try if you want. Serpent excells in Short to Medium ranges, but can select fire and snipe targets at a distance with the right scope.
