The flaylock does need a radius buff.

The MD, compared to other weapons, has stupidly awful ammo capacity. It is stupid to run it without nanohives. In fact, you often find yourself having to rely on nanohives. But other weapons... say, the AR, can be perfectly effective without any sort of Nanohive available. A little parity would be nice.

Md absolutely depends in nano hives. This limits fits greatly. It's really low considering it takes a fair amount of your clip to take someone down. Another clip wouldn't hurt I don't think. That's 6 rounds. Even when used sparingly the 18 rounds in total an md gets without skills is hard to stretch

Flaylock needs a radius buff at the very least. I can run an smg as a main. Hmm.

I don't.

Both are good weapons when used by people that know what they're doing.

Posted this somewhere else as a request. but, here I just want to know what you the community think. feel free to give your opinions. my official opinion.

• the MD is good, but could use more ammo,
• the flaylock is fine but needs .5m extra radius. the low damage and everything is good though...

what do you think?

They are both fine and are in line for what they were designed to do without going over board.

As a HMG user I love meeting an AR at close range, but MDs still scare me, because you can neither fire back accurately nor take cover. If you took away the one drawback (limited ammo) the MD would be OP. As for the flaylock, it was nerfed for a reason.

So some weapons are more equal than others?

If so we should get 1x multipliers

I hate'em, they rip through my armour.

That being said, they feel balanced. I like where the flaylock is now.

Edit:also, I'm planning on skilling into flaylocks now that we aren't getting hybrid weapons.

A .5 buff to the might break it again.

Dont think so because the damage (splash precisely) was also reduced

if you are an HMG user like myself, you'd know that its actually better to fight a mass drive than an AR, cuz of the DPS.

objectively lets give them the benefit of the doubt. its not a damage buff, not a RoF buff, not a clip size buff. its just a max ammo buff. most MD users are gone before they even get to that much ammo. reward the good players with something like this.

Flaylock radius would of course be good, but why would the MD need an ammo increase, that's what nanohives are used for.
