Scorpion EVO 3 A1 with Holo A, Compensator and laser for an SMG that rewards controlling the vertical climb yourself, Glaive-12 with Holo A, Vertical Grip and laser as a real backup shotgun, and Deployable Shield as the default utility.

Expert recommendation

Written and reviewed by hand for this patch. This is an opinion, not a win-rate measurement.

Why it works

Compensator is the pick when you already keep the Scorpion controlled vertically and horizontal drift is what actually costs you during a spray — the same tradeoff that works well for Ela. Holo A keeps peripheral vision clean, and the laser sharpens hip-fire for close trades. The Glaive-12 has no barrel slot, so Vertical Grip and the laser are the real decision on it, giving Denari a genuine close-range second weapon rather than just a sidearm.

Who it is best for

Players who want Deployable Shield as the default utility — instant cover for holding an angle without exposing yourself, and without needing a teammate's utility to make it work.
