Now if they buffed regulators so proper shield tanking is viable then you will see less hybrid tanked shield suits and anti shield weaponry will have more of an advantage. Not saying I'm right but its something to consider. Magsec wont be as effective in cqc because less fire rate and apool up btw

I guess the same will be true for the MagSec. Regarding the damage type as most seem to favor armor these days the damage type is a plus for the MagSec. Exept the magsecs does less damage and longer charge

Exept the magsecs does less damage and longer charge Sure that's true but 0.05 secs really not worth to mention. But I think the tighter hipfire paired with a good sight will make the difference, may be the MagSec won't be more powerful compared to the AR but its performance will be pretty close and the MagSec is just a sidearm. So with MagSec we will have a sidearm that provides nearly the same power AND range than a primary weapon. The last time this happens was when CCP introduced the original flaylock that was able to compete with the MD and at some point CCP realized they made a mistake and nerfed the Flaylock (ok they overnerfed the flaylock). But even this experience did not prevent them to make the same mistake again.... Its gunna be fine Assuming they dont remove the asmg And its a damm smg...better at closer range than an ar

I have no problem with it being better at CQC its a SMG but the thing is it will compete withe the AR pretty close on ALL ranges AND will make the SMG pointless It has lower fire rate and the ar does shield damage.........and is more versatile

I expect the Magsec to have pretty tight spread just like the RR. The Magsec will make the SMG useless and will further limit the need for the AR SMG does 383 DPS at standard level. So the MagSec only beats it by 2 DPS, but that means it beats the normal SMG at all ranges. Now... what can't you do with the MagSec that you can do with the SMG? Swap it out in the middle of a gunfight when your magazine runs empty and start firing immediately. (0.3s charge-up time is pretty long in CQC situations.) But not everyone does this already anyway, most simply run around a corner while reloading. My bad I had old numbers :/. So they have basically the same DPS while one provides far better range so whats the point of the SMG once 1.8 hits? Its just sad that CCP sees to repeat their mistakes again and again :( More shield damage, faster to fire
