Strategy Guide[]

	This section outlines a strategy.
	Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.

• When you use a Heavy Assault Rifle, it is preferable to use at medium range. At long range it is still powerful due to its high damage and accuracy when firing slowly, however.
• It is important to note that the weapon has a very large spread when firing at full auto, and also is very weak up close due to hipfire spread. It is advised to wait for its first shot accuracy to reset before firing each shot, or to fire in short bursts.
• Despite its high damage, the fire rate of the Heavy Assault Rifle make it generally unsuited to destroying structures.
• The Heavy Assault Rifle, like most weapons with the "Heavy" prefix, is rather noisy.
  • Keep that in mind when attacking opponents at longer ranges, as it's likely any enemies close by will hear you firing even clearer than if you were to fire a different kind of assault rifle.
• When choosing between the Heavy Assault Rifle and other medium-range options, note the Heavy Assault Rifle's strengths of moderately high damage and tight initial accuracy, and its weaknesses of poor hip-fire accuracy, poor structure DPS, and high bloom when firing full-auto.

Counters[]

• Keep within close range when engaging with an opponent with a Heavy Assault Rifle, as the weapon's poor hipfire accuracy can be its downfall.
• At mid-to-long range, where the Heavy Assault Rifle is effective, it is best to use a scoped or red-dot weapon. Since the Heavy Assault Rifle lacks a scope, its shots have spread, whereas scoped weapons do not.
