Has the weapon specific damage dealing been switched? The AR seems to now be more effective against shields and less against armor, while the laser across the map is making my 755 hp of armor go down faster then a slow scout. I know the its finally making its come back as a practical force on the battlefield, but im not the only one who thinks they should turn down the lasers juuuust a little. Its all around dps is almost ridiculous now. Also, not complaining about the SR itself, just the fact that again an energy weapon is doing more damage to armor then the AR. This wasn't the way these weapons were originally balanced and I don't see why CCP would change them. It really seems to me like a mistake rather then an intentional adjustment. |

Sorry I meant scrambler rifles, and from what I recall energy weapons were never this effective against armor. I remember not even trying against heavies if I had a scrambler rifle. Energy weapons are supposed to be highly effective against shield and poor against armor and hybrid weapons vise versa. Just saying it seems to be switched but

I can't comment on the Ar but since the laser builds up power the longer you hold the trigger it can appear to blast armour better than shields but really it doesn't - The initial output is less so appears to do less to shields, then builds after the shields have gone and so more armour is damaged.
Honestly I didn't know that about LRs. Guess that's my problem with them. Regardless, since the patch ive fell victim to too many situations where an LR out ranges my TAR and melts me, and when it doesn't out range me, it could put out the damage of 7 of my shots in the time it takes me to fire 3.
Yes everything has more armor, but it just seems like everything got tweeked to take down armor.... except for ARs. |
