I wanted to buy some weapons skins from the crafting materials we are getting this season, and I was wondering if there are any really good legendary weapons skins out there that I don't know of. A skin where the model changes, and it's better than the base version. For example, Wingman: The Merciless wing and the Death Ray are the best models for this skin (competitively) because its model is the skinniest amongst the other models. In contrast, using Thermal rise will put you at a disadvantage because it has the bulkiest model (which means you can't see your targets as well after shooting). R-99: The Kill Switch and Outlands Avalanche model have the cleaner iron sights for the r-99. Although the tube can get in your line of vision sometimes. Peacekeeper: The Lonestar and the Superstar model have the cleaner iron sights for the peacekeeper. Are there any weapon skins like these that change the model of the gun for the better?

@HeyNameDoesntFi So skins with cleaner iron sights basically...Last spartan/variant for the r301.LED rez for the alternator.Dark fright for the prowler.Quantum chaos for the havoc.There's a couple of others but they're event/BP skins.

@OldTreeCreeper I don't really think there is one for the spitfire, at least not that I've noticed anyway.I've got most of the spitfire skins and they're all pretty sketchy....you're probably just better off hipfire strafing the enemy until you get a sight lol. XD

@HeyNameDoesntFi good question. I love to use a 2 hogc on the spitfire or even the 3 of late. I cannot hit a barn door with the iron sight on the midnight skin, like in arenas. Would love to know opinions for best base spitfire skin sight.

@BaldWraithSimp It is because you cannot see properly.

@hayhor I am actually. 😛 rocking the crypto/revs skins too lol.

What legendary weapon skins are competitively better than the base skins?

@OldTreeCreeper Have you ever noticed that Spitfire iron sights always have a higher headshot ratio? Most shots go to head I swear.

For me:
Devotion -> Lead Farmer
R99 -> Zero Point (S4 BP) & Outlands Avalanche/Kill Switch
Flatline -> Heat sink (S4 BP)

@MrCarri-X Zero point is by far the superior r99 iron sights, just didn't mention because I don't know how long the dudes been playing lol. 😛
The flatline BP skins have some of the best iron sights in game as far as im concerned. Real Nice visibility.

@MandatoryIDtag If you are not using the champions edition flatline skin you are missing out. Not because of iron sights but just because.

@BaldWraithSimp in my case it would be over the head shots with iron sights😃
In the range the spitfire recoil pattern looks kinda like a 7 to me. Very handy to shoot a valkarie going straight up and coming straight down into a tight spot in the last circle for the knock, reserrection shield didn't help them either, 1 sight on and hip fire.
