Wolfman previously stated they will be addressing the PLC soon.... I for one love the mechanic of the regular variant and will be disappointed if drastic changes are introduced As I know from experience, a buff will create a FoTm atomic bomb And I also know once you adapt to it's use it can be effective, I've used since release It excels at the role of anti-infantry suppresion, and can deter Vehicles CCP I know you do your best to avoid my opinion, but like all crazy people claim.. - This time I know what I'm talking about -
If CCP introduce variants then the role of PLC can extend to being specialist AV
- Breach , slow but hits really hard (2200DMG)
- Assault, usually these are faster versions but I would make exception with PLC And have the Assault deal less direct hit DMG but causes lasting DMG to targets so basically the burning effect we have seen posted on forum
This way the Assault would stop vehicles from repping between shots And would make the PLC perform perfectly in AV... We get the regular (Infantry SUPPRESION) Not infantry slaying... It works perfectly in holding any infantry back from desired target The Breach, basically an Orbital Cannon The Assault, faster fire with the bonus of delaying vehicle reps I have also though a lot since 1.7 on if it should ignore hardeners on vehicles And that is something that could be looked at, it is really tough to get CQC with HAV Just to have to endure 60 seconds of hardener until it's worth firing... By which time the HAV has repped, and cycled through hardeners so there is no hope
Anyone seeking a slayer weapon should stick to DMG Modded AR variants

There will be no Assault Plasma Cannon, because the Gallante weapons are inherently Assault. This is the reason there is not an Assault Shotgun or Assault Assault Rifle.

Thanks for info, but I did say it wouldn't function like the usual Assault variants So as it is not intended as 'Assault' I will change the name in OP

Technically the std PLC hits higher DMG per-shot than an OB per-pulse

there will be 2 variants of the PLC that I have heard of for 1.8 one is the assault variant (yes there is one) and the std variant... they will both have the typical PLC splash damage and RoF. but the assault variant will have 2 rounds in a clip less direct hit damage and a larger splash area along with incendiary capabilities. I will be personally scouting with REs and the assault PLC. the std variant will be the way it is now but slightly higher damage along with incendiary capabilities.
so the assault will be able to put out about 700 splash damage in a 4 second window direct hit for it I do believe will be 950/1150/1050 I cant remember for sure on the direct hit. I just remember that this was my thought process when I read the stats for it. sorry if I couldn't be too much help with this

I wonder now if each rifle will get a variant of their own race's specialty; future Assault Assault Rifle, or maybe Breach Rail Rifle?
Thanks for the info, where did you get it?

The splash hasn't got anything close, though.

Indeed, and thank CCP for that or we would see it spammed from every rooftop
