Is there a more accurate automatic weapon when it comes to blind firing than Slingshot?
Want suggestions for a silly build I'm working on.
At the moment the Slingshot seems to be the best on an all red build. You just use all the weapon mods for accuracy and extra magazine size, you're still at 60% chc and 105chd, at least.
It seems to have an inherent boost to blindfire accuracy, beating out weapons that should be much better on paper - likely because of the 60 optimal range stat.
Basically I'm creating a blind-fire build that solves problems in areas that would otherwise be difficult, especially for solo play. In my case, it was trying to beat Coyote on high escalation levels.
So what I found was that Slingshot, which has a high base damage and 60 optimal range (i.e. max optimal range), when coupled with accuracy mods on the weapon, excels in an all red striker build at beating entire missions with only blind firing - so a better result than I was going for.
It can actually kill elites on higher escalation tiers in one magazine while blind firing at up to around 25 metres, which is insane. It appears to be better at this than any other weapon I've tried - Lexington, St Elmos, M1A, Bighorn, Catalyst etc.
