are you buying the ATAC to help you in close ranges?

Its more of a mid-range weapon, hipfire on it isnt great

I am buying it for close and medium ranges, I am shit at using medium/far range weps in close ranges, so what mods should i put to it? I see people use it in close ranges.

if you aren’t good at aiming in cqc then the atac probably isn’t a good choice, as using marksmanship mode is preferred most of the time

cqc is close quarters combat - generally regarded as 0-30 in apb 

 

reflex sight will make your accuracy when in marksmanship mode worse (affecting mid range fights), but it will give you a larger field of view

Well as was mentioned you will be aiming down sights with the weapon, so Mobility Sling is the only "must have" mod imo.

Cooling Jacket makes the weapon bloom to hell.

Improved Rifling is rendered useless as even at 50m base accuracy the ATAC isnt good enough to min stk without a great deal of RNG.

For me Orange mods only really matter for degrees of zoom.

Reflex sight 1 will make it easier to ADS in cqc situations.

Hunting sight is fine, but realize every level makes the ATAC worse when hipfiring.

 

So Mob Sling, RS1/HS, blue mod (my preference is for Mag Pull 3, but some players prefer Extended Mag)

 

Ive never understood the HS3 IR3 ATAC loadouts.

Go to ARMAS and preview it (for free) for 30 minutes (or 2 hours if you are premium user).

That way you can find out for yourself if the weapon fit your way of playing or not.

Why not?

Reason for Mobility Sling is to move faster while you are aiming down the sights.

Reason for Reflex Sight 1 is to get bigger field which make it easier to aim down sights during close encounters.

Not sure if joking or not.

 

As stated, Orange mods are more about zoom that anything. This is why I suggest RS1, same zoom as RS2 and RS3, but not damaging enough to ADS to matter.

Just like with guns such as the M1922, The Manic, and the The ACES Rifle ( all of which rely heavily on Mob Sling, using RS1 can be added to reduce ADS zoom, which both makes it easier to ADS CQC targets in MM mode (less zoom), but also gives a slight buff to hipfire efficiency.

 

The ATAC is sort of the close range AR, and will never compete with other AR's past 35-45 meters due to its base accuracy being too low. Even slow tap firing, the crosshair doesn't reduce enough to reliably hit enemies beyond this range.

 

Remember the person in question was buying the ATAC to improve his cqc skills.

if you have trouble using marksmanship mode at close range, no

 

something like the nfas or oca would probably be a better option, as you can hipfire effectively without many accuracy penalties

I would not spend 8k JT's on a permanent ATAC.

I'd rather save up to 10k and buy the 4 slots 4x4/firebomb. or keep stacking these JT's.

If you are ready to be loved and hated go for it.

I own it and never use it.  It's decent but not a CQC weapon, try a shotgun or Whisper OCA.

You can buy the one for Joker Tickets. Don't spend real money on it though. Get an account wide N-TEC 5 Dvah instead 🙂

ATAC 424... well... I used it and at current I have mixed feelings at it. Back in pre-nerf era it was "must have". ATAC was killing as equally in range as in close distance. It was hard to counter with even SMGs (which struggled at time). Now? Well ATAC is kind-ish close quaters and kind-ish AR. Meaning in nutshell that you will struggle with pointsman weapons at their respective range (but not with other weapons) and you will struggle with assault rifles at their respective ranges. And honestly ATAC forces you to jump people most of time and doesn't work that effectively if you are jumped all of sudden.

If you ask me. STAR 556 or FAR is pretty decent alternative. It can be CQ if you make it or can be middle range overkiller if you make it with right mods. Plus unlike ATAC, STAR and FAR actually can shot at long range (although with heavy damage drop-off, even with IR if i'm aware). And from personal experince - both weapons are very good at "panic defense". Even from shoulder running in 5 meters this weapon got pretty decent chances to hit your attacker. Although I wouldn't bet for you to rely on this weapons to be effective as that kind of "last defense", it's still way more universal weapon than ATAC.

Still at some point I decided that STAR (and later FAR) is better than ATAC, so who knows - maybe you find my opinion similiar.
