I'm not well versed into amps myself, I've spent 7 months using the Mote amp because I didn't want to grind the standing with the Quills, and even if I wanted to, I couldn't take on Eidolons because they're hard as shit with a Mote amp.

I'm a bit more into it now, I don't claim to be savvy at all, but I think that while personal preference is a factor, how you combine the components is what makes them stand up over others.

For instance, I'm going to build an amp which relies on quick recharging energy and semi-auto triggers to never run out of ammo. I made quite a bit of researching but even then a lot of the operators I saw use that same prism because it deals great damage and has punch-through (which is the Shwaak prism). I was thinking of combining them with the Pencha scaffold (which fires pretty much like an Opticor) and the Plaga brace (which drops energy capacity but reduces the charge delay by a large margin). I fathom (judging by the comments of others), that between each shot the energy will replenish, allowing me to fire again without any problem.

It will be my first amp though, so I don't know if it's the best combination, and bear in mind that I haven't built it yet, so take it with a grain of salt. Pretty sure there are better guides than mine out there.
