The Continental 2-1 Auto Rifle

Hi Swaye here and today we are going to review the vanguard vendor roll auto rifle the continental.
First of all you might be wondering why are we reviewing this , what is so special about the gun?
Too be honest the gun does not stick out in any particular category, but what makes it interesting though is that the vendor continental is basically a 2 in 1 gun.

Before I go into the details we will first need to go through the perks of the vendor roll.
This gun has the
Red dot ORA
SteadyHand IS
And the OEG scope
Focused Fire
Eye of the storm
Perfect balance
Rifled Barrel
And hidden hand

The Continental falls into the mid-impact auto rifle category, and this is basically mini version of the Monte Carlo with less range.
Take a look at the perks and you will notice why this is a 2 in 1 gun. The perks are working very well together which makes this gun suitable for both Pvp and PVE.
Focused fire slows down the rate of fire but increases the amount of damage which will work very well on this gun for pve type of play where the slower rate of fire will make it easier for you to control the recoil and thus be more accurate to put as much damage as possible to your enemies. Most of the time in pve you want to keep your distance so rifled barrel will help a lot to keep your damage up while being safe from a longer distance. So these two perks works really well together for PVE.

For pvp play you want to switch it up and use eye of the storm instead together with perfect balance. You want to use eye of the storm here because focused fire actually slows down your time to kill , and perfect balance will be needed to keep your auto rifle as stable as possible as this is highly needed with the original rate of fire without the focused fire perk.
With this setup you will have a mini monte carlo , but then with less range.

To top it off Hidden Hand and SteadyHand IS are great all round perks that will make you as accurate as possible.

So basically this gun is well suited for both PVE and PVP, if you are a new player and you are looking for your first gun to buy I can highly recommend this. The Vendor Continental is a fantastic starter gun which can help you go through the story missions and play some casual crucible. For most of the players you will probably already have better guns for both pvp and pve, but if you want to mess around with some guns like I always do, do give it a try , it is really a fun gun.

If you got the continental as a vanguard drop here is an overview of the possible perks for the gun.

Personally I would choose, crowd control, Rifled Barrel and hidden hand.
Crowd control will make you more lethal after a kill and rifled barrel will help you minimize the damage fall off from medium to long ranges, and the reload speed is already relatively high so the slower reload will not hurt you that much, also a pair of auto rifle reload gauntlet can help you negate that as well. And Hidden hand again will help you with hitting the target more easily.

Let me know what perks you would recommend and how you find this gun.
