I didn't even bother to add pistols/revs/smgs to the latest dropsets because they're pretty much useless in quests. They are like rifles but worse.
MGs > Rifles
You really only need MGs, due to the huge ammo capacity (and damage), especially in harder quests where NPCs and bosses have an extremely high amount of health. Even if we were to add an ammo capacity buff (or damage buff) to pistols/revs/smgs they would still be pretty bad compared to Rifles and MGs, I think. So I guess we should just stick to looking at Light/Heavy MGs and Dual MGs as the go-to items for high tier questers.
We can keep Rifles (x2) and buff their PVE damage, but they will still be bad compared to MGs due to lack of ammo, I think. MGs are really heavy, slow you down, have a high reload time and bad accuracy, but they score with very high damage and huge mag size. So there's a balance. I'm afraid if we buff PVE Rifles too hard and increase their mag size, there would be no reason for MGs to exist.
