im going to use this dt..to say a bit about one of the weapons i dont think i have ever seen used seriously in dust.
the assault swarm launcher
is completely useless...its only benefit for all that cpu and pg cost is that it can split its 6 round volley...take a wyka volley and cut its dmg in half and deal it to 2 targets pretty much.
what if:
the assault swarm had the same insane pg and cpu cost
the assault swarm fired the same 6 rockets......(personally i figured making the volley bigger but individual missile damage lower, would be cooler but might require to much effort from ccp)
BUT the rockets tracked faster with weaker follow(wouldnt chase far,..but would catch up to a close target fast)..and did more dmg individually than the standard wyka
like allot more enough that a 3 rocket volley hitting a target would do around 1 k dmg(you could hit 2 lavs for 1 k each per round fired)
i feel this would make it more viable...especially vs lav spam which is where they were intended to shine anyway
btw this swarms lock range could be nerfed after this to 100m or so..ive never managed to use it well unless under those ranges anyway
no im not a mortedeamor alt..im her slave
sometimes i run weak guns just to make pubstomping more of a challenge

I'd rather see it fire more rockets but with less damage per rocket.

It HAD a use. An Assault Swarm Launcher, back in the day, could successfully kill two Militia LAVs.. It was great. But, that was a long time ago.
I think Logibro is still playing around with the Swarms, part of his plan was making the Assault useful again.
If you find an issue and I stumble upon your thread, I will do my darnedest to get the issue known.

That would make them even worse.
Each Missile hits individually, meaning that lowering the damage on them could create a situation where they're unable to break the Shield Regen threshold, which was one of the main problems in Uprising 1.7.

I was thinking lower the dmg slightly and bump the range up to 250-300m.
While also buffing dmg for normal swarms a tiny bit.
