Katitof, how does the DHSK stack up?
9.28 / 30.15
So pretty much glorified .50 cal that is clumzy to use and move around.
If you play team game and have a choice between calling DSHK and having your USF team mate dropping you .50 cal, pick .50 cal.
And just for comparison, the Maxim:
7.05 / 13.42
Not much of a difference long range and because Maxims cooldown is dynamic, the DPS at close range is higher then theoretical one, but since pretty much only long range DPS is relevant(because squads will just retreat when caught at any other range) there isn't any need for details here.
The only reason to get DSHK is pretty much if you NEVER plan to go T2 DSHK is a supplement, not valid, cost effective replacement justifying less mobility and higher cost. At least in my opinion.
