Is the Blaster variant of the Sniper Rifle. So all we need is the Precision Rifle and some bastardized Pulse Laser sniper variant for the Amarr and we've got racial parity in Sniper Rifles too!
Anyone else have any other ideas regarding racial parity in weapons?

Not trolling at all, blasters are short range, high damage wepons.

this gun was funny.
I was in a match yesterday it was like 4 protobear squads going at it, and in the middle of this blood bath of a war, you see this lone standard plasma cannon guy trying to get his shot in, I don't know if he ever landed one, but he seemed so out of place in that epic scene of a battle. |

It was introduced as a light Anti Vehicle weapon... for mobile infantry.
That thought is awesome.
Unfortunately it was introduced as a OHKO weapon in a game that we have to pay asset's for each death.
Alot of people mistakenly(myself included) thought CCP was going to introduce a specialized weapon with slow reload times that did massive AOE damage to large groups of Mercenaries with CCP like drawbacks. As they where taunting us on the forums with a possibility to score and track Kill Assist's as a legitimate Statistic in DUST.
How foolish was I |

Plasma Cannon == Blaster Sniper Rifle I'm going to have to disagree. I doubt the Plasma Cannon was designed as a Sniper Rifle Variant. Why would they make it like that when we know they are capable of making Blaster rounds travel long distance? Sniper Rifles are by their very nature long range weapons, the Plasma Cannon is pretty unwieldy an any range further than 75m.

My longest kill with the Plasma Cannon was 298.9m. But that's super rare. Most are going to be under 100m. So yeah..... meh

Ok, so I didn't say that it was intended, just that it seems very plausible to me.
Might be a cop-out too if they did repurpose it though, I still think it would be hilarious.

Have ton's of isk.. ask Trap.. its pretty excessive.. If I'm getting OHKO'ed which is fine because the problem is everyone is. same with a majority of weapons in this game now.
And if that's what everyone want's is a game where no amount of health point's change the fact you still die in one shot.... we should just get rid of skill points.(sniper's being the exception)
A STD logi should die in one grenade... two? sure.... I know for sure it screw's up any meaning of working for 3 month's to build skills and a suit to have a STD militia forge gun one shot you... or a militia grenade... or a PLC... or even my flaylock for some sadly...

I totally agree with you EXCEPT for in the case of the PLC. That thing is damn hard to use and if I hit you dead on, you deserve to die. The nades and forges are a totally different story though. If I could PLC someone from across the map routinely I would say it was a problem. But I am a CQC PLC user so odds are you'll kill me unless I get the drop first. That is the trade off for the OHK I guess. None of the noob tubes have a trade off. So there is that.

Oh yea that's why having the high TTK DUST HAD, was enjoyable because it took two grenades and two forge gun shots etc... to drop a STD suit that was fitted well.
And when there was Whispers Of kill Assist's meaning something more then Point's... AKA Logi's and Support Heavies would get the Credit that has been Due them for a long time...
We thought we would have this AOE Plasma cannon you could be like "Pfft We need you johnny there is a group of red's over there you fire and then we will send in the CQC to finish them off."
Instead we got another F.U. from CCP and people like it because it makes them giggle. Which IS almost enough of a point to negate the entire TTk argument... I give them that. |

@ Bethhy
It would be pretty sweet if there was a higher tiered AOE version of the PLC with a massive splash radius but low damage. Working in tandem with a masshole would be aaaaamazing.

Yes because I'm crying about dieing to a PLC... some people just cant help themselfs? ahahaha...
This OHKO weapon trend is a systemic problem in DUST and has been the root to the TTK issues and opinions around it. PLC sure is a very small factor compared to grenades? regardless OHKO weapon's are a massive problem if we want Health point's on suit's to mean anything... |

Sniper Rifles are specialty weapons made by the Caldari for long range. Their rough Gallente counterpart is the Shotgun. Amarr: Laser Rifle. Minmatar: Mass Driver. That's just the way I see it, I could be wrong, but it makes sense, given the current data.

In what world is the Shotgun the Gallente equivalent to the Sniper Rifle? I mean, I know the Gal are more CQC but that just sounds craaaaaaazy.

Both weapons take into account the races' strengths and weaknesses and are specialized for them.

Amarr are mid-to-long range, so, yes, those pistols are fine, I chose lasers because of the damage increase every sec. And, of course, Mass Drivers are self-explanatory.

technically it IS as thats the catagory of weapon its in design wise. reguardless of what its good at or used for, its a plasma RPG, designed as a plasma RPG, and was designed as part of the AV catagory. |

it was (poorly) designed as an AV weapon, as part of the light AV catagory. reguardless of how its used thats where (on the design chart) it sits. |

I was in a match yesterday it was like 4 protobear squads going at it, and in the middle of this blood bath of a war, you see this lone standard plasma cannon guy trying to get his shot in, I don't know if he ever landed one, but he seemed so out of place in that epic scene of a battle. Sometimes I get lucky against protos and land a shot. Don't really go positive with the Cannon, but is pretty fun.

The Assault FG is an AI weapon. Other than speculation do you actually have any proof that it was designed to be AV? I would like to see it please. I think it was supposed to be AOE but failed.

i have no interest in convincing you or proving it. i simply chose to share my insight into CCPs design process. it matters very little how much evidence anyone provides your opinion would remain unchanged and so thats all for me here.
(for the sake of argument i point to the efficiancy of weapons, AV designed weaponry has decidedly higher efficiancy against vehicles and instalations, AI weaponry has **** poor efficiancy against the same targets. Plasma cannon has a high efficiancy rating and therefore was designed as AV. the eception to this rule is the mass driver wich is a wierd middle ground and while it doesnt have the same high efficiancy that AV weaponry has it has the highest efficiancy of any AI weapon.) |

Hey, I thought we we're just having friendly conversation. I was wondering if CCP actually said somewhere if it was AV and if you had a link. That's all. Nevermind I guess.

the same weapon will have different efficiancy ratings against infantry then it does against vehicles and instalations.
aka an SMG will have different readouts depending on what your shooting at, its efficiancy against vehicles is greatly deminished compaired to infantry.
note that this is SEPERATE from shield/armor efficiancy even though its the same stat and readout.
point your AR at an instalation or tank and you will see the difference in damage efficiancy % compaired to infantry.
AV weapons dont have this difference and do their full damage to vehicles unlink AI designed weapons wich do.
i suggest you load up a game and point your SMG and plasma cannon at different targets to see what i mean. |

Now that is truly the best "PLC is an AV" argument I've ever heard. +1 sir. I stand corrected.
Given that fact I believe that makes the PLC the most versatile weapon in the game. Even more so than FG because you can run it on any suit.

edit: It could be argued that no matter the efficiency rating if you can OHK a dropsuit and not a turret or a vehicle than the PLC is still more efficient against infantry.
so everything is more efficiant against infantry?
and no AV weapons exsist?
its AV simply because it was designed wwith that intent, and it fits in that design catagory.
im actually happyer with its current use then if people only brought it out against vehicles. |

Do I even have to say it? I'll give you a hint. It rhymes with Swarm Launcher. lol

It does win the funny award. I have to go to push to talk when I use it due to excessive giggling. The only thing that could be funnier are the eventual PLC is OP threads...

the PLC is definatly the best AV weapon outside of av granades for inside of cities where forge guns are too slow and swarms hit things before they reach the target.
i expect that to get much more evident once 1.7 hits.

The ability to use it against infantry was there to balance the fact that it's not a lock-on weapon. Plus both swarms and PCs are anti-material weapons also.
