Honestly, it is not OP by itself, but like with anything that is decent by itself, damage mods make it evil.

However, having used it, and knowing it has a lower DPS than the Duvolle AR, I wonder if it would seem more balanced if shield tanking were more prevelant.

I have similar feelings about the rail rifle- would it seem more balanced if armor tanking were not the most common form of tanking?

I don't think a nerf was necessary (at least, to DPS). At long ranges, it did what it was intended to do, but in CQC, it dominated far too well. What SHOUDL'VE happened was a tightening of the hipfire to just less than a laser and a huge increase in kick when not ADSing.

Still, the damage mod nerf was more a better solution than other things.

However, with the RR nerf, and the CR probably next in line, I can see light weapons starting to become balanced. I'd rather the good weapons get nerfed than the bad weapons get buffed because a low TTK is no good for nerds.

You cannot NERF a weapon based on Damage Mods being Broken.

Thats like people like myself who dont use Damage Mod get F*** over with our weapons.

So now if you want to kill you need a damage mod as a requirement,because Charlotte and CCP ''balanced'' these weapons surrounding these modules?

F*** that.

Sorry i sounded rude, im not mad or anything, just saying what i must...

It was a cqc laser. It was perfectly accurate, and therefore, useless in cqc. Make the RR the same and watch. Charlotte O'Dell is the highest level unicorn!
