In the beta, I loved Twin Handguns. Great SE apply rate, great speed and strength, and you could strafe. It was really something to admire. It's only flaw was that it ran out of ammo fairly quickly.
So, come retail, I started using Gun + Blade combos, and I LOVE it! Not only is there a lot of variation (Sabre/Dagger + Handgun/Mechgun/Crossbow), but they pack a punch and have exponentially greater lifespans on the field, since they both charge at the same time.
Sure, you're losing some SE apply rate, and a little damage compared to Twin HGs (until you go melee), but the advantages are so much better. You can reliably use all TENORA weapons and still rarely run out of PP. I do it all the time!
So, yeah. Twin HG Guntecher just got totally pwned by Gun + Blade Fortegunner in my mind. I'll buy some S-rank rifles and Grenade Launchers to solidify that view later on.
