If the opportunity presents itself I'll take a Prowler (over an R99) to reduce competition with my squadmates for light mags & barrel attachments.
The select fire hop-up usually isn't a problem to find, as it's only realistically of use to other Prowler users.
The Devotion I find to be a dead-end gun; it's effective early game even without the hop-up.
However:
- the hop-up turns up too infrequently to be relied upon
- energy weapons are generally unfavoured by the meta, making ammo harder to come by in the late game.
- smaller ammo stack size further compounds the ammo shortage, and eats into inventory space that's better spent on grenades or shield cells.
- When used outside of its intended short/medium range, it doesn't perform as well as similar profile weapons (aka Spitfire)
- The Devotion's muzzle flash is obnoxiously large (I consider removing muzzle flash as cheating, so don't do it).
tldr;
The prowler starts out good, and remains so throughout.
The devotion is ok early game, but becomes a liability later on.
*This opinion is from play on PC.
I like the prowler even with out the select fire.
Both the Prowler and Devotion with out attachments and hop up's has too much recoil on console.
I know this isn't titanfall2 but the Devotion in titanfall 2 has way less recoil and is a dream to use. The Devotion in Apex legends is all over the place and the climbing of the recoil is too much it needs to be toned down more.
The prowler burst has too much recoil also, I would rather use the Hemlock over the Prowler if I can't find a select fire for it.
I'd like to see another hop - up for the Prowler, as I'm probably in the minority that prefer the gun in burst because I get more shots on target and headshots that way.
The Devotion I'd like to be able to use single fire more effectively, Possibly a hop-up that slows down the fire-rate and increases accuracy for longer sustained fire?
