    Question How can someone get the most of of smartgunner?

    I love playing smartgunner, but I always run into the same problems.

    I feel like I can’t deal any damage and the smartgun feels underwhelming

    I have tried my best to look around the forums and asked in game and I really can secure any tips for SG that are relevant to smartgun as a whole only snippets like don’t put attachments on it, or that AP mode sucks but actually the damage AP mode has against 20 armor targets is like 2 less then precision mode. So like why not keep AP mode on like always only 4 casts have 0 armor. The rest have 20 or above anyways.

    So I want to know what I can do as a SG player to improve my gameplay? I want to know all I can know about the SG from the biggest most obvious (even a trilobite could figure it out) to the most obscure mechanics around it.

    I want to know Everything!

    Don't stand on the frontline if you can help it as you are a massive target
    Take meds and know how to use them
    put spare cells in brown webbing so you can have accuracy improvement etc on 24/7
    don't use autofire it's like really bad
    don't use burst fire, just spamclick. Burst "autoaim" doesn't make up for it.
    try shoot the xeno that the other marines are shooting
    having some people bodyblock and PB while you and other marines shoot a t3/queen is one of the most reliable ways of killing them. Try coordinate this with your squad
    group up with other SGs for MAXIMUM FIREPOWER. This is improved if you all take delta squad encryption keys from req.
    Hire a PFC to be a mule and carry spare drums for the SG deathball. Give them a delta key too.
    Always shoot stunned xenos

    Maxwell, the synth

    Smartgun gang when together is devastating. I find most good SGs are right behind the fighting regardless of squad

    Smartgun deals damage.

    It's just that you can't stun or chase so you'll essentially anNPC that hurts really badly.

    Play xeno and you'll quickly see.

    You nailed it right on the head instead of feeling like a force of nature you feel like a sentry with legs.

    Very true, the dakka hurts more than you'd think.

    Click until alien dead or gone.

    Pew pew more with click click.

    Dont stand in front of Urist McBaldo with his unmodded 41 shooting at aliens like an NPC

    Know when to chase and how much to chase, learned via dying a lot but still

    Play alien to figure out how much they are scared of you(they are SGs are an other gun firing and that spooks the shit out of them)

    4 SGs = literal human bulldozer

    be massively aggressive with it. lead hte charge. just dont get killed. You only need 1 other non retard to put some damage on the xeno and you will kill everything. So just find another SG that isnt stupid or a good PFC and start murdering everything. Sitting back will never get kills cause they will run before you do enough damage.

    Use armor shredding and target the biggest sprite.
