Talk:RIA T40/@comment-16137132-20141214070513

id the math based on all-clear guns

Striker: (650+350) x10 = 10,000 dps

Ria T40: (550+500) x8 = 8,400 dps

Looks like the Striker is still better, but considering the fact that the Striker needs a larger clip and the T40 doesn't, and that you can't really click so fast with the striker, augs are used differently

Striker would be better using Deadly, Tenacious, Capacity, or maybe replace Tenacious with Adaptive.

The T40 has a sufficiently large clip, and is fully automatic, so Deadly, Overclocked, Tenacious is recommended to deal maximum damage

In this case, considering the masteries

Striker: (650x2 + 650 x0.05 + 350x2) x10 = 20325 dps

Ria T40: (550x2 + 550 x0.05 + 500x2) x 8x2 = 34040 dps

Of course, the Ria T40 is much slower, and the masteries are not as good compared to assault rifle masteries, but considering pierce of the guns...

I'd say the Ria 20 Striker has finally met its match--The Ria T40

P.S. Striker DOES have 10rps, it's the DSC that has 8 rps
