It's not a QQ thread! Iv rather enjoyed using it!
MD is way over powered. For example, I'm an assault AR user. But today I went to pick up an MD. I invested a total of around 12k SP. Really no that much, it's about 6 hours passive.
First game I go 15/5 Second game I go 33/4!
Q: I have literally just picked the thing up, I have NO skill in using this crap so why am I so good at it? Why am I getting all of these kills?
A: Range defiantly is the problem. 4m radius (8m diameter(in a circle people!) And this is the standard weapon btw, it only go's up from here on, and the main skill for the weapon increases it by 5% per level too!
With this sort of range you don't need worry about body shots, you don't have to worry about seeing the enemy, honestly, I killed 2 people by accident. The only thing you have to worry about is ammo, but carry some hives and your sorted.
So in summery, it takes no skill and barely any SP. A good weapon of choice for anyone coming out of the academy!
But seriously CCP, it needs a nerf, or everything else needs a buff.

This comes up quite a bit. I see them used a lot. I wonder why everybody doesn't go 33/4? |

Please tell me how the MD needs to be nerfed. It seems perfectly balanced to me
- Slow Travel Time
- Small Blast radius until upgraded to level 5
- Half a clip to kill a starter fit (unless using damage mods and/or prof. skills)
- Really low ammo (18 rounds total)
- Does jack all against shield tankers without flux grenades
- Terrible ADS
- Ability to be buttplugged by SCR and AR users before first shot even travels to the target (in mid range combat)
- Awful weapon when forced to aim up or in terrain obsticals such as hills and mountains)
- Only effective against scouts and armor tankers
This thread is disused as a QQ thread
A no skill scrub weapon? You are an ASSault that uses ASSault Rifles?
Try aiming up with the weapon and get back to me on that one.

If Mass Drivers are so OP in your opinion then stop staking armor plates just use shield extenders.
It is designed to be super effective against armor, so it's gonna be super effective against armor, that's just it doing its job

PS: Obvious troll is obvious You serious? Small blast radius? It's blast radius is so large that it mitigates the slow travel time. Like i said, carry a nano with you and your ammo troubles are sorted. And yeah I use AR but so does everyone else. An AR fighting an AR kinda cancels out the OPness...
My point was its a no skill weapon, at lease with the AR I have to aim at the head of a moving target, with a MD all i have to do is get the high ground and shoot in the correct direction!

You cannont aim at the ground and expect to win against shield tankers, heavies, and people who aren't directly infront of you
The splash damage and blast radii does not migrate with travel time, it's just that smart people aim where the person is going to be instead of where they are.
Small blast radius until upgraded to level 5, yeah it's true.
And finally, it's a crowd control weapon. Just like the LR it is supposed to be good at killing massive blobs of people, the MDs tradeoff is the ineffectiveness at long ranges. Just like the LR is devastating at long ranges but is horribly bad in CQC.
Everything has it's drawbacks in this game, except ARs. I see no drawback with them

Q: I have literally just picked the thing up, I have NO skill in using this crap so why am I so good at it? Why am I getting all of these kills?
A: Range defiantly is the problem. 60m effective range (2/3 of an American football fiield(with no kick people!) And this is the standard weapon btw, it only go's up from here on, and the main skill for the weapon decreases kick by 5% per level too!
With this sort of range you don't need worry about body shots, you don't have to worry about seeing the enemy, honestly, I killed 2 people by accident. The only thing you have to worry about is aiming, but turn on aim-assist and your sorted.
So in summery, it takes no skill and barely any SP. A good weapon of choice for anyone coming out of the academy!
But seriously CCP, it needs a nerf, or everything else needs a buff.

Hey look, the one weapon we both agree on it not needing a nerf.
But lets stay on topic here
The MD is one of the few counters to ARs, and without them we'd basically just be playing a futuristic version of CoD where everyone uses ASSault suits and ASSault Rifles and do nothing but run and gun each other down while spamming Cores like a scumsickle.
I'm honestly not sure if I should call this game Grenadier 514 or CoD514, but either way, it's pretty F***ed up atm

Your argument can be made for any other weapon.
For Example: Change the MD and put Forge Gun. The militia forge gun can insta-kill anyone in one hit. EVERY TIME. Let's just make you have to put 600k SP into a skill just to be able to use the militia FG.

No need to read the rest of what you feel would "balance" the MD, or any niche weapon you decided to QQ about by not QQing about it. Let me explain how this kind of mentality has ruined Dust 514. I remember earlier builds where scouts, while being paper thin were strafing gods, able to leap around acrobatically, chipping away at you- NERFED! Heavies used to flat out outgun anyone dumb enough to face them head on- NERFED! Tanks could wreck an entire map if nobody on the opposing end had any AV above MLT swarms- NERFED! See where I'm going with this?

And this is the standard weapon btw, it only go's up from here on, and the main skill for the weapon increases it by 5% per level too! With this sort of range you don't need worry about body shots, you don't have to worry about seeing the enemy, honestly, I killed 2 people by accident. The only thing you have to worry about is ammo, but carry some hives and your sorted. So in summery, it takes no skill and barely any SP. A good weapon of choice for anyone coming out of the academy! But seriously CCP, it needs a nerf, or everything else needs a buff. EDIT: I'm just going to put this here as a lot of you seem to have missed the FIRST LINE OF THE POST! Quote:OK how does this sound, keep the MD where it is stats n' all. But make it so you have to invest a bit more SP into it before it has such an enormous payout?
But again, this isn't a QQ thread, like I said Iv enjoyed using it today, its very easy to get kills with! If nothing is changed i will still enjoy using it! But from a balance prospective, the 12k SP iv put into the MD compared to the millions of SP in AR seems a bit stupid.
Maybe you just play different and are naturally good with it? You got severly lucky and your team was heavily injuring everyone,you just finished them off? You are lying? I dunno...
Ima 3K-D ratio player that gets Squad/proto stomped BADLY but i think im an above average player, and i've never done more than 20kills in a game with it :/
But play with a STD Laser rifle and go 38-5...so i think is more about playstyle than actually OPness of a weapon.

For Example: Change the MD and put Forge Gun. The militia forge gun can insta-kill anyone in one hit. EVERY TIME. Let's just make you have to put 600k SP into a skill just to be able to use the militia FG.
Yes but the forge gun is getting a radius nerf!
I do see what your saying though, but all i put in the skill was about 12k. Seems crazy when Iv put in nearly 3 million into AR

Seems crazy when Iv put in nearly 3 million into AR MD already got a radius and damage nerf compared to Chromosome. Hell, it just got scaled down. The Freedom, Boundless, and Core are the EX0-5, EC-3, and EK-A2 of last build, with a radius nerf tacked on. You just won't be satisfied until it fires confetti.
I tried to put a level into Amarr Commando once, but got a server notification saying "Why?"

Let me explain how this kind of mentality has ruined Dust 514. I remember earlier builds where scouts, while being paper thin were strafing gods, able to leap around acrobatically, chipping away at you- NERFED! Heavies used to flat out outgun anyone dumb enough to face them head on- NERFED! Tanks could wreck an entire map if nobody on the opposing end had any AV above MLT swarms- NERFED! See where I'm going with this? Wow... I feel like your firing a lot of hostility my way for the many nerfs that iv had nothing to do with nor been behind.
But, if you could manage to read... you would see that im not so much as proposing a nerf, in fact I did say that the stats should remain the same, i understand you would need a large radius for CC. But maybe increase the skill requirement to bring it along side other weapons? Because at the moment all I'v done is invest a tiny amount of SP into it, nothing compared to the huge amounts of SP into AR, does it not seem silly to you that there is this much of a gap within the skill point system?

Did you test this with your main, or on an alt pubstomping academy users? Also curious if you can regularly replicate this.
Either way it just might be your natural playstyle, as most people do not have that 30+ score in matches with the MD

Again. Its all about playstyle. Huge amount of SP in AR? please, i can go 30-3 with a TOXIN AR BPO without a single sp spent HEHE...
Also it depends on the map. I dont think you'll do very good on a very open map with itlike the 3 objective one..
And if you do you are just way to awesome for all of us...but the MD is fine.
