I used to love my MD. But yesterday, I walked up to some guy hacking the turret and needed 3 shots to take him down.
Three. two direct hits, and then he ran around and flailed a bit, so the last managed to catch him, barely.
He was just an assault suit! and he STILL NEARLY WON. I had a smidgen of life left.
I can't even pretend that an MD has a strict use other than causing fear in the newberries. Everyone else charges through everything I can dish with it.
So...sigh...points finally go into an AR. I surrender. My scifi shooter has left me with...a rifle.
I wanted lasers and explosions, dammit!
Hi! Gosh, I've missed you...with every bullet, plasma shot, rail gun, and missile.

I wanted lasers and explosions, dammit! 3 shots? 2 being direct hits? Maybe it is a bit under what it should be then. It is sort of hard sometimes to determine if high Alpha weapons are exactly where they should be, with Automatic Weapons being sooo OP right now.
In case you're wondering, it's an EXO-5 mass driver, and I have 2 points in proficiency. I don't think I had any damage mods, if I did, it would be 10-14%.

It's not that MD are bad, the issue lies in a bunch of other stuff that's getting indirect (via suit bonus) buffs. This is what happens when you release content piecemeal that should have been dropped in one big, tested, balanced lump.
Tone rifles back. Drop the 10% damage buff that we got as a hot fix for the broken hit detection and someone, somewhere look at our light weapons all at once with an eye to making them all viable for the majority of suits.
Well spoken.
