Your Favorite Manufacturer?

There are a total of nine weapon manufacturers in Borderlands, not including Pangolin, Anshin, and Gearbox. These are their traits:

Tediore - Fast reloading
Dahl - Low kickback
Vladof - High firing rate
S&S Munitions - Large ammunition clips
Maliwan - Solely elemental
Torgue - Highest power, but with a few drawbacks
Jakobs - High power
Hyperion - Excellent accuracy
Atlas - Generally all-around

So, which one is your favorite? For me, it would be Torgue. A lot of raw power is good for their rocket launchers.

Atlas. Most of the Atlas guns I've seen outclass my other ones for damage and other things.

The Atlas guns are awesome but If I had to pick another one, it would be Hyperion. I currently have have this kick-arse SMG from Hyperion that does 138 damage per bullet and extremely good accuracy tied with a spam-like fire rate and a magazine of 72. It works wonders

I would have to say Torgue. The highest damage for any SMG is always Torgue, but they can still keep their RoF up. I currently have one with: 174 DAM, Level 48, and RoF of 11.

re: Your Favorite Manufacturer?

I really haven't picked any favorite manufacturers, but I do have a soft spot for Maliwan weapons. Even without weapon zoom and other little perks, they get the job done every time.

re: Your Favorite Manufacturer?

For me it depends on the weapon I'm using.

For sniper rifles, Hyperion and Atlas tie. I like a good rate of fire with a good clip, so either one has great accuracy and damage, but if they're equal on damage and accuracy, it comes down to clip size and rate of fire.

For Revolvers, I'm a Jakobs fan.

For repeaters, I rarely use them, but give me a Jakobs or a Hyperion.

For rocket launchers, Maliwan. X4 element with Helix style does more than enough damage on any target. Has to have a zoom scope though, not that stupid little ring.

For SMGs, Tediore or Vladof, though Dahl makes a good one. I like Bone-heads' SMG personally. I like the line on that gun too. 'The Lead Wind Blows'.

For shotguns, I like an S&S if it's got good enough damage, and it usually has ten or twelve shells. But for overall, Jakobs or Hyperion.

For combat rifles, it depends on the rifle. The burst model is one that should be a scoped Jakobs model. For full auto, Hyperion, Atlas, or Jakobs will do just fine. For slow firing autos (AKA semi-auto) I like a Jakobs just fine.

The pattern reveals that Jakobs, Hyperion, Atlas are my favorites, in that order. Power, accuracy, balance. I'll take any kind of Atlas really, but Jakobs tends to give me everything I need.

3 of my D-Pad mapped weapons are Jakobs.


Whiting's Elephant Rifle is like my Lincoln's Repeater. Those of you who visit FALLOUT 3, know exactly what I'm talking about.

My shotgun is like my Vengeance. It destroys people. Except my shotgun does more damage than Vengeance.
