every bullet is connecting

35x10= 350 dmg
35x20= 700 dmg
35x50=1750 dmg

and if all connecting you get a whopping 2100 dmg

yes but thats dps... every bullet is not 35. its every group of bullets in that second is 35.

i have not fired off a full clip from an AR and done the math but it i would think its alot less than you think per bullet

Still a watergun to the old beta stats of Proto Breach ARs, I'm okay with it.

34*750/60 equals.....

425.

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!

35 per shot is nothing to rage about. Duvolle + Proficiency + Complex Damage Mods? That's around 50 per shot. It takes one second of fire to erase 600 health with that baby.

Over 50 per shot*

Would need two or more for that and honestly that's eating up a lot of resources that could better be spent on defensive measures.

Having a lot of damage doesn't do you much good when you don't live long enough to apply it.

Suck it up and quit whining, death happens in a FPS
I swear to god half the threads are guys whining that they die when they got shot and they should have tons of health to live for minutes under direct fire

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.

AR OP NERF

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.

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?

Reduce the clip to 45, 60 bullets is too much.

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.

god those things....they gave me nightmares.

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...
