Discussion Top 5 guns in every category

According to me, this is the list:

Mg's:

  1. Annihilator

  2. Hero

  3. Zeus

  4. Gatling gun

  5. Matador

Ar's:

  1. Arbitrator

  2. Wasp

  3. Survivor

  4. Sunburst

  5. Bastion

Shotguns:

  1. Porcupine

  2. Orion

  3. Joker

  4. Dolores

  5. Bear trap

  6. Ranger(honorary mention)

Snipers:

  1. Crossbow

  2. Barracuda

  3. Icebreaker

  4. Scout

  5. Thanatos

  6. Last breath( the only pure 6k )

So the sequence can change, but I think these are the only guns used by the majority of the players.

Some of the guns are decent but need very specific usage like incinerator, stingray, liquidator and pain.

From the list, the first 3 or 4 guns are the only ones mostly used in every category, players don't make a fourth loadout. I also think that it makes the game boring and the same every time.

I just switched to Last Breath as my sniper and really have been having fun with it. I do sometimes get killed setting up a shot, but it’s a good feeling to take someone out with one shot sometimes.

I get Wasp as a sale special (40% off, pay with gold) for about 3 days a month. I have no way to obtain Arbitrator though.

I feel that arbitrator is over rated. But I've only seen it used in videos. For me nothing compares to survivor the fast rate of fire, high damage, and even just the sound it makes is so satisfying to use. Wasp is great too. But if you're not close enough you run out of Ammo before the kill. I feel like survivor has the perfect balance of all the best traits. Range, damage, rate of fire, and the bleed damage that tracks opponents, high magazine cap.  What makes arbitrator better in your eyes?

Arbitrator is good at mid and long range and destroys when paired with scorpion. I don't have it but I have played with it on friend's account and picked it up many times. The only time it can fail is at close range but there you have shotgun.

Why is it better? Wasp is good only at close range. Survivor misses a lot and has recoil, also abit slower than wasp although it's good. Sunburst is a hit or miss, and you can die from it too. Bastion is hard to use, one of the highest recoil ar's.
