Vs Other Weapons

Deathstalker vs Hunter-killer

Hunter-killer is a Legendary Semi-Auto Rifle and uses Medium Bullets, which rewards careful aim with high headshot damage, but may be fired rapidly in a pinch.

Compare to Deathstalker, I will choose the Hunter-killer since Deathstalker features a crit damage perk that is far more wasted when compared with Hunter-killer crit chance as you'll be able to increase crit damage through heroes perks.

Additionally, if you prefer Pure Damage perk, you should choose the Hunter-killer.

Deathstalker vs Siegebreaker

Both Siegebreaker and Deathstalker have solid accuracy, Deathstalker has a higher damage value than Siegebreaker, but Siegebreaker has a high rate of fire.

Although Siegebreaker is slightly better at long range, Siegebreaker is considerably much better at short to medium. Choose according to your needs.
