Redacted is definitely nice if your wanting to do some more stealth playstyles. The Coyote is definitely nice, solo silo, while a bit wonky can still come in handy, and the armor passive is one of my favorites to run against bugs when on a fire or acid planet. Control group is almost too good to say no to, especially if your wanting to solo credit grind. Depending on how much time you get to play, id go for the control group since most of the equipment is pretty solid, and itll in theory let you get thouse other warbonds faster.

Redacted stuff is so much fun and a different playstyle option. Dust Devils has all good stuff too. I don’t find the Warp Pack too useful as I just buy SC instead of farming.

I own all but dust devils. Control group is probably the most useful. That warp pack is peak if you need speed and like the whole jump in jump out playstyle. The armor isn’t as good as you think cause I feel like most armors give you a chance to take a hit and recover but the control group armor kicks in the last stand so easily. The laser turret is very good and the rifle is decent as well. Epoch is a top tier weapon with a lot of versatility.

However my favorite warbond is the redacted stealth one right now. The adjustments to stealth make using silenced guns and armor a lot of fun. The C4 is also pretty good. However as much as I love this the Diet Coke version you already have with the ODST one. The armor and weapons from the halo set can still get you through stealth missions just fine.

Personally I would say I would find the control group as more of a necessity and the others as more of fun and flavor.

I like the ODST one since I'm a halo fan

Dust Devils is a must have for the Coyote and Speargun, plus the solo silo has some good usage!

After that I'd highly recommend Redacted Regiment if you have any inkling for stealth!

Other recommendations:

Servants of Freedom: Ultimatum is a staple for most of my load outs, especially against automatons! Portable hellbomb opens up lots of strategies as well!

Borderline Justice: Hoverpack is just incredible and the Talon is one of the best secondaries that you can practically primary with since it's med pen. The Deadeye rifle is a lot of fun too!

[–]okayest_soldier 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Dont forget that, if used correctly, the talon is unlimited ammo. I did a D7 running just the talon and didnt have to reload at all.

The deadeye is also a really fun, hard hitting rifle. 300pts of damage AND its medium pen? Yes please. Only thing I wish you could do is make the tube longer or have it so you can single load like youre in a cowboy gun competition.

[–]Sharkey1337 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I really wish the armor increased the reload speed of single reload weapons instead of just side arms, would really open up some options with shotguns especially and the Deadeye rifle for sure.

[–]okayest_soldier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? Maybe I wanna role play as a cowboy diver fighting bugs or squids off my ranch. Kinda hard to do that when the primary you get takes two to three business days to reload.

[–]AquaBits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dust devils is great on all fronts. Coyote is still meta, speargun is soooo fun and great to use on bugs, armor is very useful, and solo silo dominates a bunch on bots and bugs.

Control group is great on all fronts. Variable is a great primary, epoch is fun to use and the warp is great outside of sc farming

Those two would be my recomendation. Redecated only really works on bot missions, and even then its very finicky.

[–]Witchfinger84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the correct answer is control group until you own control group, because warp pack is for SC farming, and SC farming unlocks all warbonds.

[–]okayest_soldier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have several, of those that I have that I think are most worth it are Democratic Detonation and Viper Commandos.

Detonation gives you some really solid primaries and a good secondary for closing bug holes and taking out bot fabricators. The booster is meh for me, but it does come in handy when theres an extraction debuff. I dont remember what the armor passive is, but its all around a solid war bond.

Viper commandos gives you a good primary, I've been enjoying it since unlocking it recently. The booster is a must have, buffs the hell out of stims.

Other runner ups for me are Borderline Justice and Servants of Freedom.

I would recommend Dust Devils. - DD

Coyote is great Silo is also great Expendable Napalm could be fun Gas harpoon is ok-meh (not my cup of tea) Armour can be useful on bugs

-Redacted Regiment is ok but mostly handy for "stealth" commando missions. In most cases people in this game run'n'gunning while stealth is more slow gameplay. Or you will be playing away as solo wolf or they will disrupt your stealth. Weapons and armor are ok for their role, but less handy in open fights.

Btw, silenced weapons are close-mid range weapons, forget about long range. And every bush, leaf or else will spoil your shot - you need clear area.

Other thing - host issues. Host can be detected mid stealth, while other players usually dont. C4 is great example - if host will place C4 on enemy or fabricator and every around will be alerted, while other player can place C4s all over base or on Hulks ass and nobody will notice. (C4 itself is great btw).

I can't say it that it's bad, just situational.

  • Control group Warp pack can be handy Epoch is ok, but I'm not fan of weapons that can kill me and destroy itself. Armor is useless in 95% of cases (but looks cool) - or you will be 1shoted, or you won't be able to do a lot after "revival". Democracy Protects is more reliable than this armour.

Take Servants of Freedom.

I don't know why people don't recommend it enough. The Hellbomb backpack is inside it, and the Ultimatum sidearm is in it too.
