That Militia and Standard AR DPS.
The HMG is 600, however due to its extremely short range, it's damage falloff get so low that in a actual combat range, your worse then a Militia SMG.
Militia AR is better then heavy weapon.
BALANCE!
Liked this post but then was forced to unlike it when you started going on about AR being better than Heavy Weapons. Derp derp derp derp derp.
Apparently no-one armor tanks in these threads. |

If you are going up against a bunch of other people who deal >50 dmg a shot on a fast firing rifle your best bet is to kill them faster as opposed to tossing on extenders which will buy you an extra shot or two.
Use Armor Plating if you're trying to brute force the damage. Use Extenders (shield tanking) to flank your target and dip in and out of cover to make your kills. If you're trying to assault someone head on while shield tanking, you've no right to complain when you die, especially to a weapon that inherently deals an additional 10% to shields. Which, I have to say, if you're using Damage Mods in the high slots - I'm curious as to what you're actually tanking with...

Yes, but the HMG is very situational.
You HAVE to be in an outpost, and you HAVE to be in the more clustered areas of it for the HMG to preform admirably.
Otherwise, the AR has longer range, better DPS at that range, more accurate, better scope, oh, and EVERYBODY can fit it.
See how I drew that conclusion?
So, what's the problem? You're comparing a specialized weapon to a general weapon - and even then the Assault Scrambler Rifle performs better than the Assault Rifle in every aspect save for a smidgen of armor damage. That's like saying the Assault Rifle is OP has longer range and better DPS at that range than a Shotgun.

Use the Militia Assault Rifle, you'll find your self not spraying and praying.
You want to spray and pray? Grab an Hmg or Smg.
Disagree. No reason that the Assault Rifle should be nerfed in it's ammo capacity when it's already being outclassed by the Assault Scrambler Rifle by the few intelligent people who've chosen to invest in it. Spraying and Praying isn't the Assault Rifle's strong suite anyway, if you're not aiming down the sights you're doing it wrong. |
