I still hit a lot with my DX2. My gripe is I have a slow one, 3.0 seconds. But between resources and factory problems, everyone is out right now.


I still use it when fighting armored opponents. On lok I needed it a ton.


The HAM cost is sorta high. I don't like that either.

Who do you think you are, a rifflemen? We are pistoleers damnit!!! zero meters is where we should be at!!! and if you want to get really cheesy with it, get a pistol with a high bonus to max range and use it for your first disarm shot 2, then equip the DX and move in for the kill... Its all about gun switching man... Right tool for the right job... and sniping at 64m is CERTAINLY not the DX2's job.

Oh... dare i even say it... had it occured to you to go prone? Better still... this is truly devious... there is a skill, perhaps you have heard of it... its called /aim.... and you can even use it twice in a row!

If you're not charging into point blank range against a carbineer/rifleman you're doing something wrong.

The DX2 just SCREAMS out for an advanced barrel and scope to give it about an extra 20-25 accuracy points at ideal range.

I don't know, I kinda like my 114-207, 2.6 sliced DX2, especially with a +32% max / +15% min power-up. Glad I got a crate of those power-ups.


I also always charge a carbine or rifle user to spoil their aim. I keeps me alive and keeps them dead.

The DX2 is a great pistol for close quarters or when in a group; don't go spamming specials with this weapon, though. You'll kill yourself faster than the enemy. I have one sliced for speed and one sliced for damage, and I'm beginning to warm to the speed sliced one more and more; just blast away, forget about special moves.


Solo, I much prefer my FWG5, though. Manageable HAM costs, ideal range is 20m, and I get some nice damage rolls with it. In any case, it's a good idea to have a DX2 in addition to a standard weapon so you can deal with resists; not much is resistant to acid.
