Low fitting cost, practically no CPU and I think no PG. It's good for getting AoE hits and if your target gets contact with the projectile it's good damage.
I can agree with this.
It needs more direct damage though. Bring Direct Damage back up to pre-nerf
190, 200, 230 (I THINK)
This means with full Proficiency, you can land a single shot to the chest and deal 330 armor damage a shot.
Since direct damage ignores splash resistance, you can use the flaylock as a heavy buster.
Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face.

What armor tank runs less than 330 armor?
They do crap to shields anyways.
AND HAVE YOU EVEN TRIED DIRECT SHOTTING PEOPLE WITH FLAYLOCKS?!?!

Roy Ventus, you just solved my fitting problem! I have Engineering to 5, but on my Advanced Sentinel with two Compex Kinetic Catalysers I had to skill HMG Fitting Optimization to 3 just to be able to fit a Locus Grenade. With no sidearm I do not have a single point of Power Grid left. If the Flaylock has no PG requirement I may actually be able to fit a sidearm after all! It may not be an SMG, but when my HMG runs dry the Flaylock will certainly be better than trying to survive the HMG's 6 second reload cycle! advanced flaylock uses no PG It uses 1 pg
The Specialist uses 0.
Core uses 2.
With enough Optimization skills, you can fit a Proto Flaylock for around 17 CPU and 2 PG. Great deal if you can use them right.
Combine with 1.8 assault bonus (8 round flaylock), and I am really being tempted to skill into Proto Assault before Proto Scout
