Aisha Ctarl Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 4252	Posted - 2014.03.28 19:13:00 - [1] - Quote What do you think of it? I for one love it, but find it's kick to be downright insane. I tried to use it as my main weapon on my Amarr Scout, but the spool up time gets me killed from time to time, or the kick also causes my shots to miss and gets me killed. I could list the ways how we Amarr are better than you, but your lesser mind wouldn't comprehend it.

Monkey MAC Rough Riders.. 2286	Posted - 2014.03.28 19:19:00 - [7] - Quote I can't stand the thing, to much kick, too long a charge time, not accurate enough for my liking. Still it hits like a truck when you get shots on and the sound is beastly! But I much prefer my bolt pistol, hits like a friggin space station. Its justma shame my minmatar bonus only applies to Minmatar weapons, an extra 2-3 shots would make that weapon. Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work.

Spectre-M The Generals General Tso's Alliance 355	Posted - 2014.03.28 19:21:00 - [9] - Quote Apparently a lot of the bonuses aren't being applied. Forge gun Amarr assault Magsec That's all I'm aware of. Amarr Factional Warfare Loyalist Minnmatar in Amarr Armor I am a Wolf in Sheeps Clothing
Snagman 313 Carbon 7 CRONOS. 371	Posted - 2014.03.28 19:24:00 - [10] - Quote I'm very fond of it, as you say the kick does seem a bit extreme at times but it leads me to fire in bursts of 3 to 5 shots when engaging targets at range. I mostly run an AV FG heavy so the Magsec fits nicely as a PDW allowing me to run with the squad more effectively and provide cover fire better than previous builds. However it is still a secondary weapon with below average range, damage and a long spool up time compared to primary weapons so it seems pretty balanced to me. Closed Beta AV veteran I drink because I play Dust

PARKOUR PRACTIONER Reapers' Assailant 1029	Posted - 2014.03.28 19:27:00 - [11] - Quote I like it, like the kick. I run mag with M-512-A smg. Smg to start and mag to finish. Or mag/ion bolt/mag. I am the shadow, and the ghost in your eyes, I am the scout, that hunts in the night -Shadow Scout Sits on Perch
Joseph Ridgeson WarRavens League of Infamy 828	Posted - 2014.03.28 19:32:00 - [12] - Quote It is Caldari tech and everything Caldari tech has to be awesome! Oh, I use a Madrugar tank. Why do you ask?... Going serious, I actually like Rail Rifle / Magsec on my Assault. The biggest thing I can say about them is that they "feel good to shoot." It feels like it is a real weapon with the sound and visuals on it firing. The Plasma Rifle feels more like a toy to me rather than an actual weapon, same with the SMG. Nothing against those weapons, just that Rail and Magsec actually feel awesome. The kick is pretty extreme but I only have a single point in the skill so I can't really judge it. "People that quote themselves in signatures confuse me." -Joseph Ridgeson
Arx Ardashir Imperium Aeternum 709	Posted - 2014.03.28 19:57:00 - [13] - Quote When dual post-1.8 ScPs weren't cutting it in my clunky Commando suit, I switched the assault/burst ScP out for a STD aurum magsec with some of the leftover AUR I had. I like it. Good range, some solid damage (except against shields, it seems like, but I don't know if it's just ***-poor damage, hit detection, or operator error), and even has a zoom for ADS (for whatever reason).

Zahle Undt Bullet Cluster 1152	Posted - 2014.03.28 20:00:00 - [14] - Quote I haven't used it extensively because Infamous: second Son is so much better than Dust, however, the couple matches I used it I like it a lot. As someone who is used to the rail rifle I don't find the Magsec kick to be too bad or its charge up time to be long at all. Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.
N1ck Comeau Ahrendee Mercenaries Dirt Nap Squad. 2384	Posted - 2014.03.28 20:16:00 - [15] - Quote I'm running magsec/bolt pistol on my caldari scout, i love it. If you run cloak and shotgun, you're a scrub Don't brick tank that scout, come on, get good. Proud member of RND
Rizlax Yazzax Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 147	Posted - 2014.03.28 20:22:00 - [16] - Quote Knight Soiaire wrote: Kick makes it balanced. Its perfect in my opinion, good to actually see some real kick on a weapon. Agree 100%. To me it just feels brutal and is great fun. Yes it has range but with that kick, even at level 5, it will take a skilled shooter to fully utilise it. In the interest of full disclosure, I have only played an hour or so with it on patch day. Stupid responsibilities...
Pvt Numnutz R 0 N 1 N 1046	Posted - 2014.03.28 20:22:00 - [17] - Quote I love it its my baby. I really enjoy the kick! It makes it feel like its got some power behind it and makes it challenging to ads and hit far away targets, I don't think that should change. The spool up is really cool, love the Spinny bit! The reload is also awesome I don't know why I have to **** it on the right side though. The only issue I'm having is sometimes when I switch to it and hold the trigger nothing happens, no spool, nothing. It takes like two or three tries to get it to spool and start firing. I've died quite a bit in my cal scout because of that. Otherwise, she is my baby and I love her, think I'll call her Maggie

Made my 1000ehp commando get shredded by another magsec scout in CQB and made me look like complete ***, like I didn't even know how to pull the trigger. Other than that, a good weapon.

Zahle Undt Bullet Cluster 1153	Posted - 2014.03.28 20:44:00 - [21] - Quote Oh it also needs the red dot or reflex (whichever you call it) sight it shows on the silenced version we don't have yet Most tankers are like sand people.

I use it on my Amarr scout light assault fit with the viziam scp and like you, I'm guessing you are stuck on just the std magsec lol. My e war ninja fit is an scp with knives, both with cloak and uplink. I put two enh sidearm damage mods on the light assault fit. PS guard/farm, ssshhhhhh.

Leadfoot10 Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 960	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:33:00 - [25] - Quote As a ARR user, the Magsec came naturally, and I'm encouraged to read they are going to fix the sharpshooter skill to reduce kick. Now if I could only find a way to reduce the kick on it's bigger brother, the Ishukone Assault RR, we'd really be getting somewhere! But really, over time, you get used to it and can compensate -- but I sure would love a skill to reduce it on the RR.
JP Acuna Pendejitos Canis Eliminatus Operatives 103	Posted - 2014.03.28 22:04:00 - [26] - Quote I'm glad it's not OP as it looked before it came out. The kick and the ADS make this a sidearm, which is nice. In CQC is very powerful. I'm not sure if the silencer is there and it just doesn't show in the first person view or it's supposed to come in a future variant.

Patrick57 Holdfast Syndicate Amarr Empire 6277	Posted - 2014.03.28 22:14:00 - [28] - Quote The MagSec just isn't good for pulling out to finish someone off. The spool-up time makes it completely not viable.

I've one shotted a couple caldari medium frames that I can only imagine were MLT/BPO. It's risky but so satisfying so I keep trying to get the charge OHK haha.

I would try to use it on a non-assault scout, but if I miss, I'm dead.
