    Hey war players!
    I just want to see how many people prefer the Isolator or the Skull-crusher.
    I know there is no better gun, I just want to see!

    I think we need @Piky to explain each of the guns xD. I rarely play War, but when I do I use skully because I can't aim for my life.

    Iso is better but not because of the flame you get for using it
    You actually have to be able to aim with it, and since so few people on war can actually do that it gets dismissed by worse players as a worse player's gun

    The Overlord Response,

    The gun you should use might not be the gun that works for you.

    First, determine your skill by using your KDR as a baseline measurement.

    Are you Elite, Professional?Average, etc?

    [​IMG]
    Next, look at the gun specs to further understand where the data could benefit you.

    [​IMG]

    Most players utilize the assault rifles far more than they should because they fire the most number of rounds per minute (RPM).

    Youtube videos are a great way to learn how others use your weapons and how to use them in an OP way.

    If you are a rusher, you will want to use either the assault rifles or some of the high powered shotguns or mini.

    If you are a sniper, you might benefit from using the Disassembler, MSR, or Dragunov.

    - The Python side arm allows a sniper to shoot more bullets.

    The ISO fires the fewest numbers of shots and you may want to stay away from this gun at first glance. As you get more skilled you may find that you are better as a sniper than as a rusher or vice versa.

    ISO is extremelly hard to use because it fires the fewest numbers of shots and requires constant reloading, but if you master it you are in the company of @meltingangel (7+KDR), @Striker_Sly (5.96 KDR) ,@MR_EVIL_OVERLORD
    (6.08 KDR)


    It is important to note that damage is a significant factor and should play into your decision making.

    For most players, the Dissassembler is the more logical choice as it gives you high fire rate, length of shot and damage per shot.

    Many players use the Skully, if you are interested in this then you should watch youtube videos from @Lekosa1 (KDR 4.55) @__Astro_ (KDR 5.16) and there are many others.

    If you love the mini watch @Serine1002 (KDR 4.62)

    These are ideas to help you get better, many others have mastered the guns as they are. As you become more experienced with one weapon you can branch off into using other weapons.

    "The Skull Crusher". This assault rifle can be used in a variety of situations. I find that I can use this weapon in infect and any other game mode.

    In my opinion the Skully gives you a versatile weapon with a decent magazine, rapid firing of shots, short reload, and tactical maneuvering. This weapon is best used in flanking, head to head (medium distance) and entering/clearing rooms.

    In my universe, I see the Skully as a version of the AR 15 assault rifle....it was almost a version of the G36 but that rifle is being recalled for I believe the engineering term is sucking (because it overheats and doesn't shoot straight).

    Pict below is from my texture pack.


    [​IMG]


    Unlocked at: Level 40
    Price: 870 credits

    Fire Rate 600 RPM

    Fire Mode Burst

    Reload Time 4 seconds

    Magazine Size 24 + 40

    Damage 36

    Recoil 0.55

    Range 76m

    Hip Accuracy 2.5

    Aimed Accuracy 0.2


    This is the preferred weapon of many Nukers.

    It's gotten a bad rap from those that overuse it and use the jumping around like a chicken with their heads cut off while spamming technique. This technique is not the most efficient and exposes the shooter to multiple deaths. You'll still want to utilize common sense and techniques when entering doors, shooting through windows, or engaging multiple people at the same time.

    In reality, the faster firing time between shots allows you to focus on many different targets without using up all your ammunition and still lay down suppression fire. Ideally, you will want to pair this will scavenger to replenish your ammunition.

    Sweeping rooms with the Skully is no problem and then using this as an assault rifle allows you the most flexibility on any map (except for long shot maps such as Beaver).

    This is not a sniper rifle so the length of shot and power of shot are about half of what they are with a rifle. When opponents are far away, you will want to make sure they are in range and fire off a couple of rounds before they can even reach you with their Skully.

    When playing Infect with this weapon, you will want to be on the ground in a defensible area where you have a clear line of sight. This will help you hold off multiple zombies during the next zombie apocalypse.

    Skull. It's more versatile. It can be used as either a sniper, assault, or shotgun depending on range, plus burst mode conserves ammo.

    It depends almost entirely on the map and gamemode.

    ISO is better overall if you have any aim whatsoever in my opinion, you just have to know how to use it up close as well.

    I never use iso, only rarely I decide to go near it. It is a easy choice for me, skully. I do see how to iso is better though. For players without scav, it is the obvious choice.

    I definitely use the skully more, but on some maps, I would definitely use the iso. I use the skully more because it just can wipe out whole rooms of people easily. I use it on all maps really, except the large ones like warsong and some maps with lots of obstructions, like countdown.It has a very high damage per bullet and shoots at a high rate of fire. In my opinion, it is the best overall because of how good it can be in almost every situation. One burst can kill someone if 2/3 head shots connect. It can save you in a situation where there are enemies far away from you and surrounding you. It is a very versatile weapon.

    The iso is better in some maps though. It is a one shot kill, which makes it nice to know you're going to kill someone without armor if the shot connects. That is why it is nice on very large maps because the skully's (I would use skully or iso on every TDM/CTF) bullets have enough of a spread at a certain point where not all would hit someone. It's also good for maps like countdown with all of the obstructions it has because it is just one bullet and you don't have to worry about one of the skully bullet snowballs clipping the edge of a quartz block.

    Skull.
    Its a good Gun when your tired and just want to lay back, but also when you want to concentrate, then you can do that and be op. So that you pretty much kinda Quickscope and get slot of kills fast.
    Sometimes i almost use it like some people use the iso. And that works too :open_mouth:

    Without scav:
    For a non donator the iso is probably the best gun you got tbh. If you have any intention on nuking that is.
    Sure, it is fully possible to get a decent score or even nuke with a skullcrusher even if you dont scavanger, but unless you are careful, those bullets will be gone before you know it...


    With scav:

    There is not much difference between scav and no scav if you use iso.
    For someone with scavanger on the other hand the skully is amazing, especialy if the bliddy recoil is turned off....
    fucĸing jump shooting bastards!! >:/ . . . . . we really need the recoil back! :'(

    Btw ..... ISO FTW!!!
