* CCP didn't include it in the explosive nerf dev blog * it is designed for area denial and breaching in close quarters, urban environments (<40m). It excels at these beyond every other weapon, however, outside of that range, or when not having a height advantage, it is completely useless except in the most skilled hands. *The Damage/Ten Seconds is about 25% of the Duvolle, even with direct hits, and is can be countered by most other weapons should they properly position themselves, therefore, it is not OP. |

So because you have bad aim and can't hit a moving target when you're being shot at, the mass driver is OP? Did you forget that if you actually stand still and hit every round on the MD guy, you will kill him before he kills you? i assume so, as you are defending the AR which has a damage/10 sec rivaled only by large turrets.
Also note that due to the explosive nature of the MD and nanhove requirement, most MD users are callogis, so if you throw a flux, you will win every time, but of course that didn't cross your mind because you believe the AR is the one gun to rule them all. |

I'm gunning for top troll, now, as I've retired as King of QQ. I used to target CCP, but now I'm aiming for the AR users. |

because it is the only other weapon as easy to get kills with as the AR- the most over-effective weapon in the game. While it excels at nothing, it does well at everything, which is why it IS the best weapon, and therefore, a win-button. |

However CCP bases their nerfs on sudden increases in an item's use. I can see that happening already this week. Mass drivers are the new FOTM whether OP or not, and I'm guessing they have some sort of %age threshold after which nerfs are considered.
If that were true, the AR would do 20 damage per round at proto by now. |

Then why do ppl qq about my 20/0 with a MD or tank but no one says anything when it's an AR? |
