N1ck Comeau Ahrendee Mercenaries Dirt Nap Squad. 2428	Posted - 2014.04.06 19:02:00 - [1] - Quote Both these weapons perform perfect in their niche now. I had some good games with both these weapons earlier, laser feels like i can use it at almost any range but extremely close, then i use the m209. Mass driver is amazing when combined with a flux nade, but heavies are impossible to kill, mass driver slaughters scouts, often 2 or 3 hitting them with splash, a 1 hit if it's a direct hit. Good job balancing these weapons ccp. A side note, on an amarr assault the laser would be such a beast. If you run cloak and shotgun, you're a scrub Don't brick tank that scout, come on, get good.

They do wreck my suits from time to time, but they are all armour based so I can honestly not complain in any fashion. "I do agree with you there though. shudders" -Arkena Wyrnspire

Maybe but I doubt the complement one another as synergistically as some weapons might. Great in their respective niches, and great at their respective damage types........ but not very adaptable at varying ranges. "Get thine Swag out of my face!

Mass driver 120% to armor = destroyed armor. It is a rather useless suit with a one on one fight the lack of speed and the fact it runs entirely on shields you either die because you couldn't bunny hop/get away quick enough or you live long enough to see yourself get fluxed and kill yourself. It's a good camping suit though or staying behind a line on ambush and support otherwise it can't really support itself at all. "He said he has a alt in STB." "Everyone has a alt in STB."

A week ago I could do that, sometimes three shots. Last night Sunday April 6th my mass drover was behaving like prior to Uprising 1.8. It was a huge disappointment.

Chunky Munkey Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 3811	Posted - 2014.04.07 19:44:00 - [26] - Quote I don't know how anyone thinks the laser is fixed. I preferred the 1.7 version. The new zoom increase is completely undermined by the high sensitivity. Even at 0, trying to hit an enemy at that range is like trying to balance a pencil on its tip. Meanwhile that same zoom stops the weapon being as good at its old optimum, thanks to the drastic FoV drop. The usefulness of the Amarr assault won't be known until the passive skill glitch is fixed. No.

Kill Assists are its forte, not actual kills it is definitely a great area of denial weapon, though I am finding I can still get a reasonable number of kills with it in certain situations and/or particularly when I pre-heat the beam. I love taking out someone's sheilds and making them run for cover to avoid the LR and then pull out my MD on my min-commando suit to kill them while they think they are safe.

I've had a hard time keeping on a dodging target at medium or longer range. I chalked it up to the difficulty of precision aiming with analog sticks (no aim assist when you are zooming in or iron sighting and I don't think the LR even has aim assist when shot from the hip).
