@wrong_imagesWhy do you want to use those particular weapons? Try the others, there are many to select from. I have tried every one of them, and based upon some of the comments on these forums I have gone back to reconsider a few, like the Nemesis and Volt. The Nemesis is a very effective (some say too strong) of a gun for close up or near engagements. I also have come to love the RE45 because its the easiest to aim at close range. But you need to try different weapons to see what works best for you.
Also, as for contributing, your legend can contribute to the team. Loba gives your team a way of picking up loot quickly and easily. Loba is my first legend of choice now and I use her ultimate for my team a lot. I mean very often. Like nearly as fast as it become available often. I try to keep my team the best opportunity to setup.
Then there is LifeLine. I really think she has one of the most powerful features to contribute to your team in that she can revive or heal without disengaging the fight, thus also giving cover simultaneously to your team.
Then there is Bloodhound. That is my second favorite. Not only do I use the ultimate when we engage in a cluster of structures, but also when we traverse long ranges I try to use my ultimate to pull ahead of my team and trail blaze for them to identify where enemies are at. I use that ultimate a lot also.
Then their is Wraith. I used to like using Wraith the most. I got really good at sniping from about 30m at a high position above and behind my team as they engaged. If one of them got knocked, I would open a tunnel and drop down to them, giving them a way to escape to safety back up to the high position where I was at. Also when outside the ring, you can tunnel for your team from a heat shield into the ring and they can traverse it safely.
There are more ways to contribute than just shooting.
Also, I tried Bangalore, but I found that dropping ordinance from the sky isn't something I am good at. I miss and I could wipe out my own team.
Loba and Bloodhound cannot be used recklessly because the position is exposed to the enemy.
When the enemy approaches, there is no time to wake up the allies, so Lifeline needs to have the technology to fight the enemy.
Wingman and Peacekeeper were used as an analogy of predictability.
Other weapons don't hit as well
If you can't shoot each other in the first place, it's difficult to contribute no matter which legend you use.
No matter how good legend ability is, it is difficult to overturn the superiority of the number of people who can fight.
@wrong_imagesI understand what you are saying. I understand the scenario or the experience you are trying to describe.
But it hasn't been my experience at all.
As Wraith I have on a number of occasions rescued my team when they were knocked by tunneling from a high and safe location to extract them to safety. They were much better than I and I was able to help them succeed where their strengths counted and I was weak.
And with Bloodhound, I literally path find a long distance for my team. I want my position to be given away. I position myself well ahead of my team to draw the enemy out. When I use the tactical, I position myself in a flank position to draw the enemy to me so my team can flank them.
I agree about recklessly using Loba's ultimate, I try to ensure no enemies are near us or we are on a high roof or platform so it wouldn't matter - they can't stop us.
And when I first started out, I began as Gibby, and immediately switched to Bang. Because my aim was horrendous, the munitions from the sky were my strength that I could contribute. It wasn't often, but it did help me a lot in adjusting to the game play (coming from Halo).
