I use it once in a blue moon just to remind myself that it exists but every time I do I know I could have done a lot more with the other forges.

Same applies to the other weapons. They need some love.]]> Mon, 31 Aug 2015 12:43:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2516525 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by VAHZZ]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2937789#post2937789 sir RAVEN WING wrote:

This thread is dedicated to the top three weapons in the game that need some sort of attention or looking at from CCP.

In my opinion these weapons are;

1. The Breach Forge Gun - (Obvious reasons, its large alpha does not make up for its low DPS compared to AFG + movement penalty is horrendous)

2. The Breach Shotgun - (Having only two shots in the clip with such a lengthy reload is making this weapon a poor choice compared to the regular shotgun)

3. The Breach Mass Driver - (The high direct damage is really not very useful in game, low splash and low rate of fire make this weapon weak. If a player wanted a direct damage weapon they could use the PLC to much great effect)

Are we noticing a trend here? Breach weapons, all three are breach weapons and they currently under perform.

Do you agree, what are your top 3 weapons that you think need fixes?

I'd go with scrambler pistol, thukker contact grenade, and breach shotgun]]> Mon, 31 Aug 2015 03:03:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2516409 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by Lady MDK]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2937331#post2937331 Roy Ventus wrote:

Exactly. CCP could literally just test out how much damage they could add on by just doing small increases.

I think if you can get to something like shot gun range with an AR the damage should increase.]]> Sun, 30 Aug 2015 22:24:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2516122 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by Lady MDK]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2937328#post2937328 Mejt0 wrote:

It was designed to do less DPS then others FG's, and be the king of alpha. In EVE we use high alpha to break logistic tank - to kill something before defenders can realize it's being attacked and start remotely reping it. Well we do not have that much logistic mechanic in Dust but I think that BFG is in good position any way. And you are not completely limited to stand still while using it, you can always jump to edge of building roof, maybe CCP could change that some how.

If you do not need that alpha you should always switch to AFG.

Tip of the iceberg. BSG shoots deal 0 damage from time to time and reload takes longer then it suppose to sometimes. Even if this weapon would work without bugs it's useless in it's state.

I like this weapon. You need to use it at close range to see it's potential, and try to make direct hits only.]]> Sun, 30 Aug 2015 13:41:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2515793 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by Lady MDK]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2936912#post2936912
Alternatively I do quite well with the scrambler rifle so maybe that could do with a SLIGHT nerf....

Please note both the above statements are based on the fact that i suck at dust lol and are just observations based on the fact that I feel that I kill alot more with weapon that is supposed to be short to medium range than I do with a weapon that is supposed to be a short ranged killer (if Galente fighting philosophy is constant that is).

Less kick on a rail rifle in exchange for slightly less damage maybe.....? i dunno. lol.]]> Sun, 30 Aug 2015 13:16:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2515780 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by Sequal's Back]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2936907#post2936907 Breach flaylock and breach shotgun as well.]]> Sun, 30 Aug 2015 12:55:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2515779 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by Mejt0]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2936903#post2936903 Most of them are not needed at all.]]> Sun, 30 Aug 2015 12:26:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2515774 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by Ahkhomi Cypher]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2936872#post2936872 ]]> Sun, 30 Aug 2015 11:58:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2515765 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by LT SHANKS]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2936823#post2936823 Sun, 30 Aug 2015 10:34:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/2515721 <![CDATA[Top 3 weapons that need attention... - by CommanderBolt]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2936818#post2936818
