As an avid Plasma cannon user... no.

The Gallente are all about close range fighting and the travel time and arc make it great up close, but restricts it's use at range. If it fired instantly with no arc and the damage you proposed, there will literally nothing between it and the Forge gun.

The only change I'd make is make the projectile travel 25% faster and change the damage to 1050/1155/1260 if they absolutley had to change it. Though, I'd love to see how well it'll function on a Gal commando before anything with it is touched.

The arc is the best feature of the PLC. Need to hit a guy on top of something excessively high? Get the right angle and you can drop a blob of hot plasma on him. Gotta clear out all that equipment up on that center spire about the cap point? PLC is the tool for the job. I'll settle for a reload animation that doesn't make seeing where your round lands nearly impossible.

ok yes it needs to be fixed, BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD ITS AN ANTI MATERIAL WEAPON! not AV! ie its designed to hit any armored target hard, tank's ect or infantry, if i recall correctly its acshally supposed to be for anti infantry primarily.

I would be interested in it if had a far greater splash range. With its one arcing, slow moving shot it strikes me as more of an anti-shield mortar system than an RPG. I wouldn't be averse to sitting way back, hearing a PLC strike called in and getting the angle and everything down to lob this burning ball down range.

I get that CCP doesn't want to make AV weapons to overshadow the basic infantry weapons, but AV itself needs a rework. AV grunts are too hamstrung as it is, making any squad running with a dedicated AV guy a liability if the enemy wants to zerg rush with ground pounders.
