Select-fire hop-up next to go?
Select-fire hop-up next to go? Does anyone else feel like the select-fire hop-up is falling into redundancy? Now that the charge rifle has come into play it feels like the heavily underused select...
Remove select fire hop-up but add the full auto into prowler as an option like R301 / hemlok. Burst or Full auto option, no need to find hop up. And Add Anvil Hop Up slot for Prowler.
I guess the main issue with putting full auto on the Hemlok is whether it makes it too similar to all of the other assault rifles.
I could see the Prowler becoming full auto by default with a slight nerf to mag size, but with a new hop-up that make it's burst fire more viable in late game. ( Perhaps the Ripsaw rounds* I initially proposed as an EVA-8 Hop-up)
The Havok won't miss the select fire, it was a nice idea but a very under-utilised one.

Prowler is still as good as ever. I would use it, but whenever I want to use it I can't seem to find either prowler or selectfire. One of these components just seems to be much rarer on World's edge.
I guess my problem is that I just can't use the burst prowler, so I don't just carry it around until I find a selectfire. But considering burst prowler is actually really good, the problem is on my side, not the prowler's XD.
Several options:
-Keep the hop up, but redo the alt. fire of the Havoc into either mini-Charge Rifle or instant shot variant of current version.
-Make it built-in in both guns.
-Bake in Select Fire, but add Double Tap hop up to Prowler to double burst rate of fire, and Anvil Receiver to Havoc to make it instant blast single fire.
-Remove everything and give all players Charge rifles and purple gear while starting in the 5th round ring.
-Disregard the last suggestion, it's a bad idea. Don't do that. Ever.
