I have enough skill points to up 2 lines in commando

Im getting heavy weapons for sure, cant miss on the particle/rocket/lightning/acid cannons...

And my 2nd weapon im not sure which yet.

Could you tell me how the acid rifle fares at level4 compared to flamethrower or grenades at level4?

'cause so far im using an acid rifle, i've qualified for 1 box of either heavy weapons, flame or acid and dont know which one to up first in. I like the acid rifle's ability to fire and not show where the shot came from ( a big plus in pvp battles, most people, including me, will target anyone spewing flames or rockets instantly) and it does rather decent damage. Since im a squad leader too, i get to-hit bonuses so I can actually get decent accuracy witht he acid rifle at around 40m when kneeling (and using AIM from marksman support line). But im curious to know if the acid rifle's damage actually increases as we go up the skill tree.

Right now my 4.0spd 236 min 720 max damage acid rifle hits anywhere from 600 to 2500 damage per shot, give or take resists... does acid rifle at lev 4 hit for the 3-7k damage like ive heard flamethrowers do?

your call. personally I would wait on it since I heard rumbling of a potential nerf.

flame does more max damage but more critters have resistance to fire.

acid is lower damage, but less resist it.

It's up to you.

HAR is broken at the moment as it doesn't use the speed modifiers.

Cooldown is 20 seconds regardless of +45 speed.

Also if guy stats 5.0..you will shoot 5.0..not faster due to the +45 speed.

Cooldown = lag inbetween hits.

Aswell HAR has no dot or other effects on it .. FT is far superior

My thoughts;

Not yours.
