Abilities use the guns D.P.S. base as damage. But when you use a freefire or IL attack, the D.P.S. deals more damage, the longer the reuse timer.
That's why:
Ability damage: Kessay (15) > Hasley (14)
Freefire damage: Hasley (5.5) > Kessay (4.5)
I always switch through these two weapons to deal more damage, it's kinda annoying though.

It's also not really worth it for 1 extra DPS.
There's actually another rifle out there that's very effective but has low DPS, but it makes up for that in another area." width="15" height="15" />
I think I know which one you are talking about. I just got my hands on it.
Thanks for the info/clear up, guys.

Good way to do it is use your sniper shot and freefire with the halsey, then follow up with some freefire's using the victory, and in IL, will get them staggered most of the time. :)
I use both Halsey and Kessay, but use Stinger sometimes in IL depending on what i am up against.
Is there a silent level 50 Halsey sniper rifle around? If not, i then we think we should have one!

unfortunately not available for lvl 50 weapons. 
Instead of adding new buffed clothing, it would be cool if an Update added in some rare weapons, or at least some more level 50 variations.

Agreed!! When was the last time we actully got a new weapon? Was that the FM-1500 and that's only for a few players....sucks. I want a bazooka.

Yeah, I've generally just stuck with the Halsey for my stuff, I really don't want to go through the effort of switching over rifles and such depending on what I'm doing (or equally taking the time to do some fancy macro work)
Victory is a lot of fun if you specifically want to work with staggered (as a lot of rifle users do) as that additional boost can cause a lot of problems for people. I generally only switch to that when there's large scale fighting on the go, spam staggered and move onto the next target ![]()
What's even more helpful is free-firing on speed with victory so now and then u get staggered-dazed, the possible combos for MA with that are...breathtaking, lol.Yeah, I've generally just stuck with the Halsey for my stuff, I really don't want to go through the effort of switching over rifles and such depending on what I'm doing (or equally taking the time to do some fancy macro work)
