Anybody Have Any Decent Lightrifle Loadouts?

[FleshBack]

I really want to like this gun, but I always seem to find myself getting picked off quite easily the second I get a kill with it. It's almost like, "Hey, that guy over there has a lightrifle. GET HIM!"

 

My current class looks like this:

 

Lightrifle

Magnum

Frags

Active Camo

AA Efficiency

Stability

 

I use Active Camo because I had assumed that it would probably be the safest way to play with this class... But, AC only really gets you your first surprise kill before someone else notices the highly visible beam of hardlight coming from my direction.

 

Or maybe I am approaching the gun the entirely wrong way and shouldn't be using it as a long range pseudo-sniper class? Maybe I should use it with closer ranged engagements in mind? Haha, I don't really know.

 

Anyway, anybody here that IS successful with this gun have any suggestions? I Could really use them.

I have the Light Rifle in my 5th loadout.

 

Lightright

Plasma Pistol

Pulse grenades

Regen Field

Mobility

Wheelman

 

I use mine as a vehicle loadout

It's powerful against vehicles and with the wheelman mod, I can use them well

My loadout was similar to yours but I no longer use it since I mastered it haha. U also should know about the trick kills (gettin 4 shot kills) with it. I wouldn't use AA efficiency. Instead I used either explosives or the dual primary weapon ability.

Firepower? That is actually a great idea. I mean, it won't help me get lightrifle kills, but it should help my survivability A LOT. Now I must debate on a secondary weapon... Probably a Surpressor since I have mastered the UNSC loadout weapons.

 

I am not convinced about giving up Stability though. And if I did, it would probably be for Dexterity--especially if I am going to be running Firepower with a surpressor.

Trade off camo and stability for PV and dexterity. That's what I use anyway or PV and Firepower. I also use that.

 

You gotta remember, the light rifle is a 4 shot weapon. You need 1 scoped shot and for the 4th shot to be a head strafe and bam, you're there. The scoped shot can be ANYWHERE.
