When to Pick Each
PICK BETTINA WHEN
PvE and mixed content. Heavy ammo shreds armored ARC machines. Higher per-shot damage rewards accuracy.
PICK RATTLER WHEN
Budget PvP runs. Common rarity, free loadout eligible, and competitive TTK for the price.
BETTINA STRUGGLES WHEN
Cost and weight. At 11 KG and Rare rarity, the Bettina is an investment.
RATTLER STRUGGLES WHEN
PvE against armored ARC. Medium ammo has weaker penetration than the Bettina's heavy rounds.
