Which light weapon has most DPM at 500 m range? And I mean actual DPM considering spread etc.
As backstory, it would go on a Rhino with Tulus, while saving Au for a hellfire Rhino setup. So the light weapons will be firing while Tulus reload behind shield. Typical position would be 500 m from central beacon, sitting tight and shooting at reds defending/attacking the beacon. So it's all about DPM and constant pressure. I think RDB won't really work on a Rhino. Or maybe it does, compared to Tulu + Punisher/Molot/Gecko/Spiral?
Asking here, because current league system sort of discourages experimenting when working on going to a higher league... Penalty for losing with low damage is quite stiff.

I think it must be Punishers but if you stand in the open with Rhino, you will get killed by MRS.

Pins I think. The punishers spread quite a bit at 500. You probably won't hit much at that range with punishers. I think molots will do more damage at 500 due to their increased accuracy.

Pins followed by Molot and then gekkos....no other light weps reach 500m.
but if you want more continuous fire then Molot or gekkos. punishers are useless at 500m.

at 500 m punishers spread is too high - go molots then (1669 average dmg per second, including reload time ((480 dmg/bullet * 80 bullets)/(13 sec firing clip + 10 sec reload)) 500 m is in its effective range as stated on wiki, so it will do more than half of its ideal dps, so approximately 835 dps or slightly more pin has 2561*4 rockets / (12sec(reload)+ 1.6sec(firing 4 rockets time)) =753 dps (reload included) so if you dont need burst and physical shield pen - go for molots else for pins faq.Walking War Robots.mobi/hc/en-us/articles/203786661 molot faq.Walking War Robots.mobi/hc/en-us/articles/203715092 pin |

At 500m, Punishers are so inaccurate, that they are not a consideration.
For the others, assuming 100% hits for the sake of comparison, continuous DPS at Level 12 is...
Molot - 1646
Pin - 753
Gekko - 584
Spiral - 468
...burst DPS is...
Pin - 6403
Spiral - 6084
Molot - 2880
Gekko - 2142
The sort story is:
Molots will have the highest continuous DPS, even if only half of them are hitting, but will be stopped by both shields and anciles. Pins have the highest burst damage and also deal splash damage. Spirals also deal high burst DPS and are homing, but won't pierce shields or anciles. Gekkos have very long range and go straight through anciles, but have relatively weak damage all around.
It all depends on what job you want your bot to do.

I forgot about Spirals but also you forgot to consider Aphids. Aphids burst at 8888 so technically should beat all light weapons at Lv 5 but only has 808 dps. |
