After having read and seen a lot of guides on what the proper MCH opener should be like, I found myself lacking in the amount of damage I should be dealing with my opener. Now, I don't have a parser because I play on the PS4 but I have been keeping track of just how much damage I am doing by looking at my wildfire numbers and comparing them with the ones I have seen online. I currently do this:
Hot shot > HC + RS > Lead Shot > HE+Quick Reload > Split Shot > BFB+Reload > Slug Shot > Reassembled+Wildfire > Clean Shot > Rapid Fire > Ricochet > Split Shot > Gauss Barrel > Slug Shot > Head Graze > Split Shot > Blank > Clean shot > Quick Reload > Slug Shot > Clean Shot
I normally manage to fit in everything above within the wildfire window. The highest wildfire damage I've ever done was 6.2k but I think I was just REALLY lucky with the crits.
Alternatively, I've tried blowing all my cooldowns before lead shot so that it looks somewhat like this:
Hot Shot > HC + RS + HE + B4B > Lead Shot > Quick Reload > Split Shot > Wildfire + Reload > Slug Shot > Reassembled > Clean shot > Rapid Fire > Ricochet > Split Shot > Gauss Barrel > Slug Shot > Head Graze > Split Shot > Blank > Clean shot > Quick Reload > Slug Shot > Clean Shot
Equipment-wise, I'm a i183 MCH with the Ravana weapon, the i190 headpiece, belt and one i190 ring. Everything else is i180.
Your input on any of this is highly appreciated. Thank you :).

The general consensus for the "best", and also a pretty clean opener, is:
HE>B4B>HC>RS>Hot Shot>(Pot)>Lead Shot>(Reload)>Split>(WF)>Slug>(QR+Reassemble)>Clean>(RF+Ricochet)>Split>(Gauss)>Slug>(Head Graze)>Split>(Blank)>Clean>(GB off if you want to stance dance)>Slug...
I honestly don't remember how I did in lower ilvls (I only recently got i190 w/ i200 wpn) but I can do testing sometime with i180 and see how it is. -
