For PVP, most carbineers will tell you Elite Carbine, due to it's high minimum damage, which you need against players with ranged damage mitigation. Lasers are sometimes good in PVP against melee players that don't have ranged damage mitigation.

Well, if you have the time go do the Nym missions and get the Nym slug thrower carbine. I've been using it for PvP lately and its really effective.
Get it sliced and powered up and it could almost have the max damage of a laser with the base damage of about 200 ish.

Try to check your enemy's armor and try to know it's vulnerability, then just switch to the gun it's vulnerable to (If there is one
). If it isn't vulnerable to any of your guns, I would suggest a laser carbine with a good minimum damage (I haven't seen many but I have seen a few. Mine has 80 - 309 damage, which I think is decent with the medium AP.).

I like my DXR 6, Acid protection is more rare than energy, and my DXR 6 just puts out more.

How's your DXR6? I've never seen one that was better than a Slugthrower.

I have one that is better than a slugthrower.
Currently unsliced and no powerup. Was made with a no ham imp stock and +30, -0.3 second krayt tissues.
137-238 damage
3.0 seconds
+60 ideal@ 22m
47 health
65 action
40 mind
If I had -0.7 second tissues, it would have hit 2.6 seconds, which is the sweet spot for a pure carbineer.

Heh... Shorthrow DH-17 Carbine or Enhanced E-11 is what I recommend. Get a speed slice, get a speed power up and dish out those area effects. Powered up my DH-17 Shorthrow has an attack speed of 1.1 84-181 damage. Lately in PvP I've been trying to setup my FullAutoArea so I can hit multiple targets, and when I line them up in my cone... spam that FullAutoArea2 with 1.1 attack speed... ownage... just wait until release 7 when we actually do state effects, I'll be dishing out area Dizzies like mad mofo... w00000000!

if you can get a laser carbine with some advanced components and then get a good slice you can get the min dmg over 100 (one of mine is 110-423). a laser carbine like this is the best weapon a carbineer can get, medium ap and min dmg over 100 will out dmg any other carbine even on targets with ranged mitigation 3.
the higher dmg comes at the price of higher ham cost however, but when you have to be buffed to be a carbineer anyway, who cares about ham.
