just wondering, which attack is more effective in PVP? i know scatter does dmg to all HAM pools, but is crippling do more dmg overall? obviously my goal is to take my opponent out quickly as possible, so just wondering which attack would be best to use.. thanks in advance

They actually both have the same damage mult, just with scattershot you get your damage spread amoungst three different pools, where are crippleshot is done to one randomly determined pool based on the H:A:M 3:2:1 ratio. Personally i find using crippleshot to attack the health pool is the best bet. Scattershot for me at least is really just there to help knick off a pool that is almost dead.

I wouldn't say one attack is better than the other, some people swear by scattershot for mind damage, i swear by crippleshot for health damage. What you should be sure of is your speed, check out the FAQ for the speed info, fullautosingle2 might actually be doing more damage than either shot.

They average out to be basically the same, but keep in mind you can wear off someones synthasteak fast with scattershot2.
