 Continuing on with my top 5 weapon videos, today I bring you what in my opinion are the top 5 best SMGs in this game. How's it going guys my name is DPJ and today I bring you another BL3 video. If you guys do enjoy the video leaving a like really helps out and subscribe if you want to see more. On screen I can see my weekly giveaway along with last week's winner, to being with a chance of winning this yourself, follow the instructions on screen now and good luck. As per usual this is just my opinion, so please tell me your top 3 SMGs in the game right now with your favourite, let me know them down below in that comments section. Ok so getting into my list of top 5 must get SMGs are. In at number 5 we have nothing other than the Knight Hawking. Now the Knight Hawking is an original OG SMG which I did use from the get go. Now I'm not going to lie, I didn't even realise for days upon using this that its elemental effect did indeed change. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, this SMG as you can see by stat guard is Crile but when that daytime turns to night time, this weapon turns into an incendiary weapon. Which is just amazing. Now the weapon itself is actually really good, going from these two other SMGs you can 100% feel the difference. Even if it seems said SMGs you switch to look better on paper, in most instances that won't be the case. Now using the weapon you probably won't realise it but with each hit it increases its elemental effect to chance and there's also no delay between bursts if you switch to its second firing mode of burst. Now this SMG is a specific drop to two rare bosses, the demo scraggens within the droughts and rackman upon carnivora. Now I doubt unless you are new to this game you haven't come across this already but even if you have give it another try it might just surprise you. Ok so moving on and in at number 4 we have the iron laser. Now the iron laser is a weapon I reviewed a while back upon its first release into the game with the latest DLC Moxies Heist. Moving my review video I compared it to the splardo assault rifle for the simple fact of this being a very similar weapon in the way it works, it's like a smaller ghostbusters gun with that beam of energy. In that video I don't believe I rated it as high as I should have because since that video I have had better versions drop and I can say I'm liking it way more now than I did in the past, it's a monster of a weapon for sure. Now the iron laser drops aboard the handsome jackpot and it can drop from any enemy but it's dedicated drop is the evil saint Lawrence crew challenge. So this SMG switches between two elements and it can drop after in two of all four elements in the game. It also up unholding that trigger down fires projectiles that do extra damage and essentially great great damage. You can fire up to six of these projectiles depending on the length of time you hold down that trigger. Three seconds I believe will just over fire a max of six of these projectiles. But it does have a pie trick which in fact might be just a boggle of glitch. If you hold down that trigger for three seconds, release and then spam the trigger it spawns multiple shots of those projectiles and like I said those projectiles do massive damage. So this new Maloran edition is a great SMG one I insist you definitely give a try. Ok so let's move on and in at number three we have nothing other than the tsunami. Now this weapon is an SMG I have loved since first getting my hands on it. It's super unique, it's off the radar and I actually don't understand why not many people use it. The tsunami is a monster of a weapon and besides a certain few I feel this thing definitely is up there the most efficient DPS of any SMG in the game. The tsunami's dedicated burst drop is the Categal Ball upon Skyworld 27 and it is well worth your time trying to land this beast. The tsunami drops with many different variants but the weapon as a base doesn't have an elemental effect on that stat card but upon firing it's massive magazine it periodically fires additional rounds of shock and corrosive shots which come out in bursts of five bullets or so we could say once. Now what this does is make this weapon absolutely obliterate armor and shielded guys like nothing else a single SMG in this game can do. Now although I haven't got the perfect version of this to fit my winter soldier same build I'm under lookout for one. I need one which is a 92 Zayn with these sentinel anointment. While sentinel is active you gain like 50% additional elemental damage. I need one of those in my life people if you have one and play an Xbox please please please let me know. You can hit me up on my discord link in the video description or send me a message on Xbox too I am DPJ. Ok so let's move on and in at number 2 guys we have the redistributor. The redistributor was originally a rare weapon rewarded early on in the BL3 campaign from the mission the impending storm. Now I don't remember getting this weapon at all. If I did I'd probably just disregard it. More for me. Going into using this new legendary I wondered why they brought it back and it wasn't long before I sussed it. It's because this thing is just too good to be a rare weapon. It deserves to be a legendary 100%. Now one paper this thing looks great. In battle it's much much better though. And it's part of the trick is every 7 shot is amped. Amped shots chain to nearby enemies. This does some serious damage too and I believe it can chain up to 3 enemies per amped shot. Now I originally built my zane build the winter soldier build with this variant of this weapon in mind to play on mayhem 4 and this smg just absolutely destroys all that stands in its way. It's utterly amazing. Now I will admit this probably isn't the most powerful weapon on this list and others I've covered already like the tsunami death or in my opinion have a better dps but there is just something about this which I just don't get elsewhere. Now this weapon is exclusive to the valkyrie squad and walton with when they take it down at the mellowman blacksite reed. Now it is one of the more popular drops it seems, well in my case it was anyway. So yeah guys the reader's tribute is definitely a weapon I insist you at least trying out if you haven't already. So let's move on and guys my number 1 smg in the game is a weapon that's been here since the get gole. It's already received a nerf but even still it still remains in my opinion the most powerful smg in the game and that is the cutsman. Now the thing about the cutsman is, using other smgs with certain builds you surprise yourself with how powerful some are but using the same build with the cutsman you see like a 50% damage increase it's just utterly brutal. Now this weapon is one of the first I actually uploaded a video on after BR3 came out. In that video I mentioned the fact of how powerful this weapon was. I think I got it at like a level 23 going into the game and went on to continue using it fighting enemies double that level and still it just destroyed everything in its path. It's since then received a 25% damage nerf I believe but it just does not make a difference the weapon is still super super powerful. Now the cutsmans dedicated barstrop is Borm and Nates who is located upon the meridian outskirts. It drops off through an incendiary corrosive and shuck. Corrosive is the only one I am missing here again like the tsunami our loved one anointed to the sentinel and zane if you have one you know where to hit me up. Now what misleaders the cutsman requires a certain player start to use if you jump in face to face with anointed enemies and think you are going to one pop them that just isn't going to happen. This weapon is best used over a short to medium range. Allow those bolts and projectiles to slightly spread this is his ultimate DPS method because once they start spreading anything in that path just gets obliterated. So yeah guys the cutsman in my opinion is the best smg in this game so far and there we have it my top 5 smgs all together. People tell me down below in that comment section which is your more shoes and go to smg and why. And on that note we have come to the end.
