Yes u probably guessed it - the Flaylock (weakest gun in the game)
But seriously it takes a dual wielded fit with two proto FLs to kill a person where u can do it in one round with a militia ScP!!! I have proficiency level 4 and ammo capacity level 4 invested in this thing and we didn't get a weapons respec so plzz ccp buff it fast. It should take one round to kill someone not two proto rounds.

I agree.
The new commandos should have a better paint job. Look at the Amarr one!

Do you perhaps mean "magazine" as opposed to round? I don't think it's unacceptable that the Flaylock can't OHKO.

I think the word you are looking for is clip, or magazine. One round is in reference to 1 shot. Most of us get what you're trying to say though.

I agree the flaylock needs a little love but not too much. I think we can all agree NO ONE misses the Era of Flaylock.

Actually, believe it or not I thought it was going to be a FotM scout scrub complaining that their militia shotgun wasn't strong enough to OHK a prototype brick-tanked Gallente Sentinel.

No.
First of all: No crying about respecs because your shiny toy is suddenly not as strong as another toy.
Second: No buffing so you can kill faster. ScP should be nerfed. We want a longer TTK, not a shorter.

I think the flaylock is probably the one sidearm that shouldn't kill in one clip. It seems to me it's designed as a finisher or skill-shot weapon with a special purpose. If you want to tear someone down in one clip with a sidearm go for one of the two fabulous SMGs. |

The Flaylock Pistol requires more skill than the Scrambler Pistol ever has (and will), as the Flaylock Pistol is not hitscan and requires you to time your shots properly.
As opposed to the Scrambler Pistol which only requires you to point at the target and press the R1 button and your guaranteed to hit. Along with the Scrambler Pistol's ability to utilize Aim Assist.

Yea, flaylocks are difficult to use. They will probably be getting a buff SOON(tm) as CCP starts to fix all the weapons it broke with the nerf hammer (the laser and mass driver)

LOL. In general, mercs who are a good shot use things that go "pew pew" not "boom boom". I understand what you are trying to say. But the flaylock isn't the Plasma Cannon of sidearms. It's the mass driver....

I didn't say that?? lol But I think yes it is supposed to be a finisher. It does do more damage towards armor, which would seem to support that but what do I know?

Standard Scrambler pistol has a higher DPS to armor than the proto bolt does Scramblers better as a finisher |

I think the ion pistol is three clips if you discount the charged shot. The charged shot is a 1 clip death

I couldn't kill a newberry dancing 20 feet in front of me in militia gear with all the ammo I had (I was Dual-weilding basic flaylocks for a challenge I was participating in).
I'd love to see the flaylock brough back to usable.

What Pyrex said.... Couldn't resist.
That said it was nerfed quite hard and if it's tricky to work with due to range and other consideration shot trajectory etc it should be worked on in some way... Or do the other sidearms that can match a primary weapon need bringing down to it's level?
Anyone getting annoyed by reading of the above post should consider the following.
I don't care so neither should you :)

That statement is an antecedote, but if you want to look at it that way, the other pistols are the 1.6 Duvolle of Sidearms
Even if, Mass Drivers are still more skill intensive than all of the conventional rifles combined, as the suffer disadvantages that the conventional rifles don't
- Low Ammo Pool means you have to use your shots carefully.
- MD Rounds have an arc and travel time, meaning you have to time your shots and predict the enemy's movement.
- Ineffective at Longer Ranges
- Lower DPS
- Can lead to suicide if not used properly.
The Mass Driver and Plasma Cannon are one in the same. The only difference is the fact that the PLC faces these downsides to a far greater extremity.
