Strategy Guide
Strategy Guide[]
|
This section outlines a strategy. |
| Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic. |
- At close range, the Modular Harbinger SMG is ideally paired with a slow-firing shotgun like the Modular Hammer Pump Shotgun. If your shotgun doesn't fully defeat an enemy, switch to the Modular Harbinger SMG to finish them off.
- When using the Modular Harbinger SMG at longer ranges, keep in mind that it has high recoil when fired long enough. Using short burst shots can help, but it is recommended to use the Modular Thunder Burst SMG or any Assault Rifle like the Modular Warforged Assault Rifle at such ranges.
- A viable weapon mod combo for the Modular Harbinger SMG is the
Red Eye Sight,
Drum Mag,
Laser, and
Muzzle Brake.
- The
Red Eye Sight is the lowest zoom optic, as well as it is the easiest to control the recoil. - The
Drum Mag increases the magazine size, allowing the player to fire the weapon longer to support close range use more. - The
Laser increases the weapon's hipfire accuracy, allowing for more consistent shots at close range.
- The
Vertical Foregrip is also a good choice to help reduce the recoil, making the weapon easier to use at longer ranges.
- The
- The
Muzzle Brake reduces the recoil of the weapon, making it easier to use at all ranges.
- The
Counters[]
- The Modular Harbinger SMG, despite its easy recoil with a
Red Eye Sight or
Holo-13 Optic, can still struggle with sustained fire at mid-long ranges. Keeping distance between yourself and an opponent who is using a Modular Harbinger SMG is advised.
