[YeezyGT's S15] (PvE): [MW: Stability / Range / Handling] "A personal favourite. While Warmind Cells' efficacy is currently being called into question, the SAW truly doesn't even need them. Auto-Loading Holster is a must for LMGs (sorry SWARM), and being able to roll Vorpal Weapon and Disruption Break makes SAW a top-tier pick for GMs. The recoil direction is horrible, but due to the slow firing speed, is easy to work around and plays into the power fantasy somewhat. The thing feels like you're firing a portable tank turret, and does the numbers (with a new 20% dmg buff) to back it up."
