Vs Other Weapons

Founder's Drumroll vs Founder's Nocturno

Founder's Nocturno is a Legendary Founder's Weapon, it is Fully Automatic Assault Rifle, compare to Drumroll, Nocturno is slightly better in terms of accuracy, but the drumroll can shine against fire husks in mid-range.

Nocturno's like a decent-roll Energy Siegebreaker. Quite decent all-around weapon. Drumroll is usually a Water AR, practically nothing considerably to say 'bout it. In the event you want a Water AR and have practically nothing far better; go for it.

Drumroll and Nocturno are decent, neither are especially "omg so great" however they are strong possibilities.

The Drumroll is fine but the reload is really a way to inconvenient for me to think about it as a major weapon. I personally choose components to energy but I prefer the way the Nocturno handles given that it's a Siegebreaker.

The Nocturno is exceptional from the start off of your game until the finish of Plankerton. As elemental enemies (mostly smashers, but additionally husky) turn out to be a thing it gets tougher to crutch on it because energy isn't as excellent as matching. In case you possess a high level top-tier soldier you will be fine for longer.

Founder's Drumroll vs Typewriter

Typewriter, a Mid ranged assault weapon having a higher capacity magazine as well as a lateral kick. Its shooting profile makes it excellent for clearing groups of nearby enemies in mobile engagements.

If you want a more rapidly shooting AR with a longer range, choose the Drumroll. In the event you want a closer range slower shooting AR, go for the typewriter.

I prefer the Typewriter more due to the fact with all the perk recombobulater, it has far more possible and its base damage is larger than the Drumroll. I use the drumroll when my SS supply is low.
