Cat Merc Ahrendee Mercenaries Dirt Nap Squad. 7767	Posted - 2014.03.26 10:06:00 - [1] - Quote Give it an extra 10 damage, bringing up the damage per clip to a reasonable level, and the DPS to a reasonable level too. Reduce hip fire dispersion, I mean wtf it's a CQC pistol. BAM A pistol that can operate like any other pistol, but trades range for the charge shot. Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives. DUST514514

Denchlad 7 Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 122	Posted - 2014.03.26 10:10:00 - [3] - Quote I swear the dispersion on the Ion Pistol is almost opposite to the Laser Rifle, instead of it being focused on one point, its focused on all points except your target. Was attempting to proto every weapon a bad idea? Yes. 10 so far If you can't accept change, you will fail in this world

Spectral Clone Dust2Dust. Top Men. 1891	Posted - 2014.03.26 10:34:00 - [6] - Quote Add this to OP: 1. The charge shot needs to have the damage reduced by a little, perhaps 10%? 2a. The overheat cooldown time needs to be reduced to 1/3 of what is is now. 2b. Charge shot should only disable the pistol, but not disable you from switching weapons etc. Its a pistol, not a huge rifle. This solution is also in line with how the Balac-¦s AR overheat works, and wouls make sense. Choose 1 and either 2a or 2b. Drop it like its hat.

As an engagement opener when your opponent won't be dead and now you are weapon less for 2s? Or as a coup de gras when you opponent is dying and you want to give them a second to hide while you charge up? Hail Bacon
Broonfondle Majikthies Dogs of War Gaming Zero-Day 1024	Posted - 2014.03.26 10:58:00 - [8] - Quote I like the overheat mechanic. Kinda turns the Scr mechanic on its head. Open up your shots to take out shields, then charge up for a last ditch effort. As to the spread - I'm still leveling it up but it does have a sharpshooter skill. And aside from the SMG very few weapons actually need it skilled up. Its nice to have one that practically demands that you max it out. By this evening I should have sharps up to about 4 so I'll see then. As of right now I'm murderin folks with it Its a nice complement to my SMG.

It is obvious that it did, since it has the potential to be very OP. 1. Can't even 1 shot MLTs with it. *Assassination is my thing.*

The Eristic Sad Panda Solutions 311	Posted - 2014.03.26 11:17:00 - [11] - Quote I actually kinda like it. Has a lot of personality. Needs like one more round in the clip, though, or a touch more damage. Can't quite finish off the armor most of the time with standard fire. The Bolt Pistol is the one that feels unusable to me.
BL4CKST4R WarRavens League of Infamy 2200	Posted - 2014.03.26 11:23:00 - [12] - Quote Increase damage to 70 do not change seize or charge duration. Single shot DPS compensates for the extremely low Charged shot DPS, and Charged shot is only useful in emergencies. Increase damage to 60, remove seize time or reduce heat cost for charged, increase it for single shots, charge shot DPS is lower than single shot DPS but it makes for a good finisher/sniper. Charged shot DPS at 1.45 = 241 Leave damage as is, remove seize time, cut charge time by half. Single shot DPS is lower than charged shot DPS and charge shot DPS is 480, but remains the shortest ranged weapon and has the slowest firing rate. For the Federation!

Charged shot DPS at 1.45 = 241 and mixing both is the general idea. Leave damage as is, remove seize time, cut charge time by 25%. Single shot DPS is lower than charged shot DPS and charge shot DPS is 350, it still remains the shortest ranged weapon and has the slowest firing rate if charge shotting, and the fastest if single shotting. I like this. Drop it like its hat.
