I'm a big lover of machineguns, even if they're weaker than many other ranged weapons.

But then I've read about the improvement of Machineguns in JP version of the game, and i was happy, today i've read the improvements of the bullets on JP Wikia.


As for now Machineguns stop at 125% dmg and 10% elemental...

They will become... 150% dmg and 20% elemental!!! I'm sure i will use Mechguns more than Twins http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif What do you think??

I agree completely! I wish they had tons of PP tho, but you can always just carry multiple guns. Im a huge supporter of using all kinds of guns. I have one of each on my palette at all times ^.^

Theyre a pain in the ass to raise, but, well worth it. Depending on which elements you use (I use Earth & Fire on my Beast), you can do some serious damage. I found they work best on small & medium enemies. You can use them to clear out crowds & it helps build up your Bullet PAs. If there is improvement for them, thats great. Cant wait to see the difference (whenever I get online http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif ).

I think they're the fastest weapon to level! Trust me! The rate of fire make you get easy levels for it!

he may be refering to the fact that it takes about 1 minute to empty your PP, probably less that that. You would have to have 6 guns with you and 10 Photon Charges to clear 1 Block of a Mission. they're just addons, you have to use your other weapons. so they can be a pain to raise unless you dedicate yourself to it. other weapons dont seem to have the same issue, IMO

Ice is the only element that I have for a mechgun. Freezing the enemy means guaranteed hit, which is great help with the low ATA of a mechgun.

Don't forget the mechgun ult PA. Its actually really good. Makes the mechgun fire even faster, but makes all the bullets launch the enemy. Can stand behind a bil de vear or jarba and just put it into stunlock until you run out of ammo.

The best part is they cause enemies to twitch. This is awesome for fighting enemies like Kog Nadd or Polavohra with lots of HP since they basically sit there and have a seizure while everyone else keeps smacking it. I have every Mechgun gun bullet(along with every rifle,dual,and shotgun bullet) and I keep 2 with me atleast for now while trying to level the bullets. I usually burn through those as fast as I can just to spread the SE and tag everything.

I've never really tried Machineguns to be honest. Luckily, I did manage to pick up a free B-rank one, so I'll try that out before I decide the bullets are worth buying.

I run with 3x Beam Vulcanics on my Guntecher. The PP on them is considerably higher than any other Mechgun, which is something I think will be beneficial when you consider the PP Cost of the Ultimate P.A.

I keep with me 6 Machineguns ( but i equip only 2 in the quickbar )

For leveling the bullets i used 12 1* machineguns, the bullet levels so fast, specially after lvl 21, it's easier than before O_o
