I'm 45 super credits off being able to get a premium warbond, which one am I getting?

May want to wait and see if the new warbond this week is worth it.

That said here are the ones I'm interested in:

Steeled Veterans has the incendiary breaker which is amazing for fighting bugs. It also has the Dominator which is a good pick for bots. Not much else going for it, but two good primaries are pretty nice to have.

Haven't gotten into the other packs yet, but heard good things for few of them.

Viper commando seems like a great pick: The armour passive is really good due to the faster aim, the booster is really good but niche, the shotgun secondary is powerful but slow, the knife is niche too but a fun gimmick to try, and there is lots of cool customisation options for hell pod/etc.

The one I'm planning to pick up next is democratic detonation: I'm picking this almost purely for the grenade pistol as closing bug holes with a secondary would be handy. Especially on search and destroy. Though the primaries are pretty good too from what I hear.

The Incendiary Breaker has been great. I've been running it this whole time. But it is being nerfed in the next balance patch and I'm salty about it.

Heh, now it's just very good instead of a nearly mandatory pick.

It's still just as powerful, but it makes you super ammo thirsty now... Definitely want to compensate with strategems or support weapons now, though with the amount of backlash they very possibly will revert it to come up with a better solution
