Jaysyn Larrisen is correct. Gallente AR is the best at short range, there is no denying that. Using Gallente tech means you will always have a tendency for CQC and shorter ranges and highest dps.
The -variants- are just that. Variations from the base Gal AR. In no way should a variant rifle outperform the base rifle of the race it is emulating.
I feel like there is a good balance between rifles right now.
TTK is too short. Remove AA and the 10% damage buff.

I believe there is a good balance between base rifles. In between the variants are going to be a little blurry but there are many more factors that come down to milliseconds and various fittings.
Personally still feel like the base AR can reach out and touch someone.. but that could just be player skill with the weapon.
The assault RR doesnt spit out rounds like an AR or CR but you might get 3 in a row on someone in CQC in the head.
From experience Id say I get lit up by all types of rifles in different circumstances. (Plus I just got a new to me lcd tv with bad input lag).
Also from experience I would say the base rifles do perform as they should. Kalaakiota RR lighting me up at long ranges.. same with A/SCRs.. Boundless CR? ************ in tight just like a Duvolle.

Like what John said. People using ARs could wreck everything before the new rifles came out. Now I have to worry about multiple types of rifles at all ranges.
I used the Gek before the RR came out (Im Cal FW) without any proficiency skill and it was a mean piece of business.. and still is.

Speaking of weaknessess.. does anyone else find hit detection issues with the RRs? I was getting hit by CRs at around 80m and up to 100m while my SB-39 wasnt lighting them up.
This is the second day it has happened. Most days at those ranges Im able to score kills or have them run for cover.
Just wondering.

TTK is too short. Remove AA and the 10% damage buff. Hardly my ACR beats ARs allthe time hell even the CR does this. Not to mention the RR or ARR their high damage output paired with high hipfire accuracy clearly negletes the spool up time.
I have noticed the combat rifles tendency to rip me up. I use a Cal Assault C-I with 2 basic plates and figured my RRs RoF and hopping around plus the odd hit detection thing was the reason.
The RRs arent good at close range compared to all other rifles. I am hard pressed to find 1 aspect of it that is better at cqc than any rifle.

I had was using a gk.0 assault with a Federation Duvolle specialist AR. I got into a close range engagement with a standard rail rifle and dropsuit, an I LOST!!! The rail rifle was better at close range than the Gallentean AR was, and it was standard vs. Prototype too. We need a serious buff somehow to make the AR the best at relatively CQC for a racial rifle
If that was a common occurence there would be an issue. I guarantee you that doesnt happen too much. Was he the only guy that hit you? Did it lag out a bit? How close is close range? Headshots?
Of course it can happen but in no way is any RR better than an AR up close. Certain people might just kicck ass with the RR.

High damage rounds with lower RoF, if you miss a couple shots it gets pretty dicey. Does the ARR put out more DPS than the AR?
