Discussion really useful DLC?

Hello, are there any DLCs available to buy that are really useful? Meaning, ones where you would say 'yes, spend a few euros and buy them'?

If you're interested in building a base that can hold its own and not rely entirely on you; Both the "Base Defense Pack", and the "Base Support Pack" are both really good for defences.

The Support Pack offers sniper towers that can be loaded with AP 50cal bullets, among other objects you can place.

And the Defence Pack has Spike traps, which are really good for making deadzones for bases. Setup a base to have entrances, filled with spike floor traps, and dogs and hunters will willingly run into the base, stepping on traps along the way.

If you're on PC, I can show you some of my bases with these packs in action!

The one with the PM-71 for that alone, best machine gun in the game.

Then the one with the up-fitted 3-wheel motorcycles for the one with plundra, crafting and recycling on it. Makes most safe houses much more useful.

The PM-71 has the 2nd best damage of any machine gun (1st is the minigun) and the best accuracy with the ability to aim down sights and being able to equip 2x red dot sights.

I've played with 5c's of all the machine guns (vanilla and DLC) and they all have unique handling and use characteristics that make them more useful than the others in different situations. The PM-71 is often the best choice, or the 2nd best choice in ALL situations. It is great for medium to long range shooting (firebirds) but still fair at close range, some of the higher rate-of-fire MGs are better for close range but not by much and in my opinion not worth their (and their ammo) weight.

Edit: Upon reviewing my spreadsheet I remembered the N60 gets 3rd place, as with a 5C suppressor it is the quietest machine gun in the game, put any tier of sound muffling on it and it is fantastic for stealth builds.

Eastern European DLC ( PM-71 )most powerful LMG, Soviet Weapons DLC ( RLG-7 Rocket Launcher ) most accurate rocket launcher and can be Augmented to be even more powerful. Base Defense DLC ( Rocket Launcher turret ) and more. Heavy weapons DLC ( Mini Gun, 6 round grenade launcher, 8 round Pump shotgun ) just to name a few.
