Rapid fire also helps when trying to take out groups of enemies standing in a corridor or hallway. Quickdraw is a useful because it decreases the time it takes to aim down sights, which is a weakness of an LMG.
The Fat barrel primary operator mod is majorly important. It may be difficult to earn, but the work is well worth the reward. This mod increases the size of your rounds making it easy to demolishes enemies. By making the rounds larger it becomes much easier to land shots on your targets.

- Specialist: Ruin
The MX9 packs a hell of a punch and can fire over long distances. The reason this weapon does so well in combat is because of its power. The MX9 is the strongest SMG. Its slower fire rate allows you to maintain accuracy from farther distances than other SMGs.
ELO sights are a critical attachment for success. They allow you to aim at targets without visual interference from sight posts and optic frames. Rapid fire is an awesome tool to have with the strongest SMG in the game. Hybrid mags bring the maximum ammo capacity to 45 rounds per mag and reduces the reload speed to nearly 1 second flat. Ghost prevents you from becoming an easy kill from someone who has you on their UAV. UAV can be earned with as little as 450 score while using COMSEC device.
Killing opponents becomes second-nature with this class, so choose better killstreaks. Using COMSEC device on this deadly class will earn you frequent killstreaks. COMSEC device gives the killstreaks attack chopper and strike team a bigger score cost reduction than any of the other killstreaks. Its wise to use Engineer while care package is equipped because it allows you to re-roll each care package you and increases the likelihood you receive something useful from the care package.
