A handheld Plasma Cannon that requires a charge up and fires a huge ball of plasma does less damage than an AV Nade that can be carried in a bag/belt, can be thrown in an instant, and is much quicker.
Makes sense I guess. |

You've got more than three seconds to escape while I'm reloading and charging another shot.
What'd you prefer?
AV Nades with the same damage as a Forge, can be thrown instantly, and quickly?
OR
A Cannon in which you have to aim, when aiming take into count, projectile drop and speed, and requires a couple or more seconds to reload, charge up, and shoot again?
I got a Sica, off its shield with three Fluxes, swapped to my Cannon, then shot it (At armour) and it tanked the shot.
A MLT Shield HAV able to armour tank a charged up, slow moving, ball of Plasma. |

I mean, it has only one shot per clip, it should be able to do serious damage with only one shot, just like weapons with many shots per clip should have low damage output
It definitely is.
But either make the scaling better (Give me a reason to use Proto)
Or swap the stats and keep splash radius, damage, projectile speed and drop the same. |

The funniest thing is when players try rush you with MDs, and you get them with direct.
My mission is to now embarass everyone in the kill feed with this thing.

Nobody think its a good idea?
A handheld Cannon doing less damage to vehicles than a Nade is pathetic. |
