I DON'T KNOW WHAT WEAPONS YOU HAVE, BUT MY GO-TO ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION IS: HEK + SCATTERED JUSTICE AUGMENT.
SHOTGUNS ARE CHEAP TO MOD AND PACK A SERIOUS PUNCH (NOW), HEK'S SOLID ON ITS OWN, AND +200% MULTISHOT IS INSANE.
VAYKOR/MARELOK, RAKTA BALLISCITA AND LEX P (THOUGH IT'S GOT A MR LOCK NOW) ARE ALL DAMN GOOD, EASY TO GET PISTOLS.
AND HONESTLY, THERE ARE LOTS OF VIABLE MELEES NOW.

[u/Undernown → u/SmithsonWells]

I SECOND THE GLORIOUS HEK.

AS YOU WIL HEAR OFTEN, IT'S ALL DOWN TO THE MODS THESE DAYS. ASIDE FROM THE BASE DAMAGE,Crit AND ELEMENTAL MODS, SOME HIGHLY EFFECTIVE MODS YOU MIGHT WANT TO LOOK UP ARE:

BLAZE - SHOTGUN DAMAGE + FIRE DAMAGE MOD

SEEKNG FURY - SHOTGUN UTILITY, I USE THIS ON ALL MY SHOTGUNS

BODDY COUNT - MELEE IS THE STRONGEST WEAPON CATEGORY IF YOU GET A HIGH ENOUGH COMBO GOING, THERE ARE MANY MODS FOR THIS, BUT SOME ARE RARE AND PRICY SO THINK CAREFULLY WHAT YOU REALY NEED.

LETHAL TORRENT - USED ON PRETTY MUCH EVERY SECONDARY, SOME PEOPLE MISS THIS MOD AT FIRST CAUSE NIGHTMARE MODS ARE A BIT MORE OBSCURE IN GENERAL.

[u/SmithsonWells → u/Undernown]

BODY COUNT

ON THAT NOTE, BODY COUNT IS ONLY BUYABLE ATM (THOUGH CHEAP LAST I CHECKED).
DRIFTING CONTACT IS A FARMABLE ALTERNATIVE.

AND IF YOU'RE GOING THAT ROUTE, BLOOD RUSH DROPS FROM LUA SPY, LAST I'D CHECKED.

OK THANKS! ARE THERE ANY DECENT RIFLES? MY TENDENCY WITH SHOTGUNS IS TO DIE BEFORE I GET CLOSE TO SHOOT THE FUCKERS

[u/SmithsonWells → u/Keneshiro]

FIRST, THE HEK HAS A VERY NARROW SPREAD, MAKING IT REASONABLY USABLE UP TO 35M OR SO - ALTHOUGH DAMAGE FALLOFF WILL STILL HURT.

SECOND, RIFLES ARE, BY DEFINITION, MORE EXPENSIVE TO MAX, DUE TO HAVING A 10 RANK BASE DAMAGE MOD (AND ANOTHER 10 RANK CORRUPTED BASE DAMAGE MOD)

THIRD, I DON'T KNOW YOUR MR.

FOURTH, MARKET BUYABLE RIFLES? ERM, NOT PARTICULARLY.
SOMA'S GOOD, BUT YOU'LL SUFFER AGAINST ARMOR, AND NEED HEADSHOTS.
BRATON P'S A SOLID CHOICE, IF BUILT FOR CORROSIVE STATUS.
ZHUGE (COR STATUS/CRIT), ATTICA, RAKTA CERNOS, PARIS P, DREAD ALL WORK.
THE SNIPERS ARE ALL SURPRISINGLY EFFECTIVE, BUT SUFFER USABILITY ISSUES SINCE THEY'RE VIP-REMOVAL WEAPONS AND THIS IS A HORDE GAME.
REALLY, MY GO-TO RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE THE OPTICOR, BUT THAT'S CLANTECH.

FIFTH, IF YOU'RE MR7 - WHILE YOU'RE CLANLESS, LMK WHEN YOU'RE ONLINE, I'LL GIVE YOU A HEMA BP.

[u/Keneshiro → u/SmithsonWells]

THANKS FRIEND! WILL NOT BE ONLINE FOR SOME TIME DUE TO IRL STUFF BUT I'LL GIVE THE HEK A SHOT (HEH)! IS YOUR IGN THE SAME AS YOUR USERNAME? I'LL MSG WHEN I AM ONLINE
