I don't think the Mass driver is OP, the only thing I dislike is the efficacy bonus on explosives. I personally would like to see the Mass driver with tactical explosives like stun grenades, flux grenades, shock grenades etc.
EDIT: And I am an AR user. |

That being said, MDs are semi-FOTM. They're a skill weapon so not as many will be using them as past FOTM weapons. I'll be sticking with my Toxin AR. If more people use them, CCP will be able to gather more data to assess whether or not they are OP.
I will never use the Toxin AR  Mostly because I refuse to spend any more money on this game. |

Since we are all here, how do you counter a Mass driver? Getting destroyed by them. |

Come on there has to be a proper way to counter it, if this is the only way to counter the weapon I might have to take back the "I don't think the weapon is OP". The weapon cannot be that powerful that the only way to counter is by running away and not re engaging. |

The weapon cannot be that powerful that the only way to counter is by running away and not re engaging. Things that routinely kill me when using a MD: Snipers Tac AR Shotty Myself :) Remember, MD is really good for logis and logis have no sidearm. More often than not, those MD users are logis that you can close on and fight in CQC. This can easily lead to the logi killing himself in the blast.
Gonna try out the MD for the first time since Chromosome. |

The weapon cannot be that powerful that the only way to counter is by running away and not re engaging. Way to "counter" them. Use a weapon that has longer range and sit back and outrange them (so you have to be pretty far away for this to work). If you can get into CQC....I mean true CQC then they will hurt themselves while they shoot you...as long as they dont hit you directly you will be doing more dmg with your shots + their own dmg being dealt to themselves. Dont even try to "dodge" being hit by the AOE....its simply not possible. The best you can do is to positions yourself in a way that the blast radius does not help them......unfortunately the brilliantly designed maps by CCP allow for very few areas where you can position objects between you and the MD round. People say height advantage is the best method....but that is the best method vs every single weapon in the game. So in reality if you say the only way to counter an MD is to have height advantage then that is just a laughable statement. Not even LAVs are safe as your dropsuit will take dmg if your char is in the explosive radius....even when it hits the vehicle.
Had somebody cook a grenade and rush at me, killed himself along with me... |
