I'm wondering who makes these recommended loadouts. They're terribly misleading for new players.

The first one lists more mods than it is possible or efficient to use, and gives no hints as to which ones are important to level higher than the others.

The second one is a hilariously inefficient way to increase damage. Shock, fire, freeze, serration each at 30% is 24 points, and increases rifle damage to 220% (37.4). A 10 point serration (105%) and 14 point split chamber (75%) is the same 24 points and increases damage to 359% (61). You could then swap serration for the element your enemies are weak to for an even bigger bonus. You do lose some crowd control effects, but if that's the goal of the loadout then maybe it should be noted? Even then, slow enemies vs 50% more dead enemies is a pretty easy decision imo.
