I had been running Scout Rifles and Pulse Rifles as my main go-to weapons for a very long time. Got into Handcannons a lot, too. For PvP, I'd run Red Death almost exclusively after the week Xur sold it. It was a very slow-firing, nasty weapon that wiped shit out. So after a long while of blasting people with Red Death, Fair & Square, various Handcannons, a handful of Scouts, Thorn, etc. I wound up getting bored and decided to try my hand at Auto Rifles. I had a few of them in the past. Had Hard Light before Xur ever sold it, and I maxed it out but I found the graphics glitch to be too distracting. The weapons were alright, but I didn't really enjoy them as much as removing someone's skull with a Devil You Know slug or a carefully-timed burst of Red Death. But I figured I'd try anyway. Stuck with them. The DLC had just come out, so I saved up 150 marks and got an Up For Anything. Wound up liking it, and its whole "Legendary Shingen-E" feel. Saved up another 150, and got For The People. Thought the perks on Do Gooder V sounded handy, so I saved up again... each time ranking up to get the Commendation to buy each thing (DLC had just come out... nobody had piles of the useless things sitting around like we do now). So after ranking up 3 times, spending 450 marks, and grinding for materials and grinding to unlock the maxed upgrades for all three of these rifles... 1.1.1. Update comes out. They all sit in my Vault, rotting away. And I'm back to shooting people in the face with Red Death, staring ahead blankly with a bored look on my face in the Crucible.
