Considering that proficiencies have been rebalanced, the player proposed balances on the Gallente TAR are obsolete, and actually put the weapon at a serious disadvantage.
Namely, the magazine is too small. It's 18 rounds, and this reduced clip size was introduced during a time when 11 rounds was sufficient to down most heavies.
The rate of fire cap is also unnecessary and handicapping, as overall ttk has been increased. This rate of cap, also prevents the Gal TAR from properly competing against its Scrambler and Caldari counterparts. As Gallente it has the shortest range, and should be able to counter them within its appropriate ranges.
I will provide a set of proposed stats for consideration, to get the TAR caught up. |

Insufficient.
The 18 rounds in the TAR are miniscule compared to the 54 rounds of the CR, the 42 rounds of the RR, and the 45 rounds of the SCR. The damage it does per shot, does not compensate for this short-coming.
The rebalance of the TAR was for a different time, and different set of mechanics. That rebalance is now obsolete.
At the minimum, a range increase, magazine increase, and rate of fire increase is necessary to bring it to competitive standards today.
It also needs to be better than the scr and rr at close range, which it currently isn't. It needs to be updated. |

I'm feeling a sense of obligation here, as I was the one that proposed the TAR's current stats in the first place. It was just slightly modified as people saw fit.
We should seriously consider rolling back the changes, because the damage mods arent a factor anymore, and proficiency isnt a factor anymore. |
