I really wish Dust was larger. Bigger maps, longer ranges. I hate how 95% of infantry combat takes place within 50m.
My ideal Dust... ...rifles at least.
Assault Variants- Fully Automatic(or similar) rifles meant for all-round grunt work. They excel at laying down a lot of fire. They typically come with a 2x optical sight attached.
Ion Rifle(G)
Damage - 33
Headshot - 175%
RoF - 800
Mag - 60
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 45-50m (this is the point where the damage drops to 85%. After this, all rifles do 85% damage out to 250m. Then they stop doing damage.)
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.5-¦ still/2-¦ moving/+0.05 Bloom per shot
Aiming Accuracy - 0.3-¦
Recoil - 0.03-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.01-¦per shot horizontally random
Ion Rifles have high DPS capabilities, but are otherwise average and have a fast damage falloff at 45-50m. They make for a nice familiar and easy to learn weapon.
Autorifle(M)
Damage - 17
Headshot - 150%
RoF - 1500
Mag - 120
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 55-80m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.75-¦ still/2.25-¦ moving/+0.02 Bloom per shot max 2.25-¦
Aiming Accuracy - 0.225-¦
Recoil - 0.02-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.005-¦per shot horizontally random
Autorifles fire very fast for a single barreled projectile weapon. Even for a Minmatar weapon, it fires surprisingly fast. Fairly difficult to control, but have a nice upward kick pattern.
Shock Rifle(A)
Damage - 11
Headshot - 125%
RoF - 2500
Mag - 200
Reload - 2.25s short/2.25s long
Optimal - 60-90m
Hipfire Accuracy - 0.05-¦ still/0.05-¦ moving/+0-¦ Bloom per shot max 0.05-¦
Aiming Accuracy - 0.05-¦
Recoil - 0-¦ per shot vertically/ 0-¦ per shot horizontally
Heat Threshold - 100
Heat Buildup - 25 heat per second
Heat Cooling - 50 heat per second
Feedback Damage - 100
Shock Rifles are characterized by the fact that they don't fire individual shots, but instead a steady stream of laser guided electricity. They are near perfectly accurate, but suffer from the same heat issues as most Amarrian weapons.
Rail Rifle(C)
Damage - 60
Headshot - 175%
RoF - 425
Mag - 35
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 70-100m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.2-¦ still/2-¦ moving/+0.08 Bloom per shot max 2.5-¦
Aiming Accuracy - 0.2-¦
Recoil - 0.0175-¦ per shot vertically random/ 0.0175-¦per shot horizontally random
Spool-time - 0.25s
Rail Rifles work adamantly at many ranges, and are extremely accurate. Before firing, they have a short spool up time.Due to the nature of Railgun weaponry, its recoil patter is small but seemingly random.
Burst Variants - Burstfire Rifles. These weapons provide a middle ground between the accuracy of a semiautomatic, and the ease of use of an automatic. Burst weapons now have an anti oversampling mechanism built in, if you pull the trigger before the weapon is ready, the weapon will fire the next burst by itself, so spam them triggers! These weapons typically come with either a 3.4x or a 4x scope.
Plasma Rifle(G)
Damage - 34
Headshot - 175%
RoF - 900
Mag - 56
Rounds per burst - 4
Burst Delay - 0.067s
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 75-80m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.50-¦ still/2.25-¦ moving/+0.02 Bloom per shot max 2.25-¦
Aiming Accuracy - 0.2-¦
Recoil - 0.1-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.01-¦per shot horizontally random.
The Plasma Rifle can deliver facemelting damage at longer ranges. It still suffers from the sharp damage dropoff that is characteristic of plasma weapons however. It has a sharp but easy to manage upward recoil.
Combat Rifle(M)
Damage - 25
Headshot - 150%
RoF - 1200
Mag - 75
Rounds per burst - 3
Burst Delay - 0.05s
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 90-115m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.35-¦ still/2-¦ moving/+0.04 Bloom per shot max 2-¦
Aiming Accuracy - 0.175-¦
Recoil - 0.085-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.02-¦per shot horizontally random.
The Combat Rifle blurs the line between bursts, making it hard to tell if the weapon is even firing in bursts arpt all in some cases. It boasts an ideal shot pattern if properly controlled, but it can get out of control very fast.
Pulse Rifle(A)
Damage - 60
Headshot - 200%
RoF - 750
Mag - 25
Rounds per Burst - 5
Burst Delay - 0.0s
Reload - 2.25s short/ 2.25s long
Optimal - 100-125m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.50-¦ still/2.25-¦ moving/+0.075 Bloom per shot max 2.25-¦
Aiming Accuracy - 0.15-¦
Recoil - 0.01-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.01-¦per shot horizontally random.
Spool-time - 0.15s
Heat Threshold - 100
Heat per Burst - 35
Heat Cooling - 50 per second
Feedback Damage - 100
The Pulse Rifle is rather awkward and clumsy, but it provides a strong weapon for this willing to work around its drawbacks. It has very little recoil and has a high damage output, but it features both a spool up time and and is prone to overheating. It is very lacklustre in close quarter situations.
Gauss Rifle(C)
Damage - 75
Headshot - 200%
RoF - 600
Mag - 12
Rounds per Burst - 2
Burst Delay - 0.0s
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 110-140m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.75-¦ still/2.10-¦ moving/+0.125 Bloom per shot max 2.1-¦
Aiming Accuracy - 0.1-¦
Recoil - 0.02-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.02-¦per shot horizontally random.
Spool-time - 0.2s
The Gauss Rifle fires 2 high powered rounds in quick succession, but each burst has a sizable spool up time, and the weapon is limited by its magazine size.
Tactical Variants -
I'm pretty much out of room here I'll get these thunked out soon.
P.S. Don't quote this monster! We don't need this more than once... |

~continued~
Tactical Variants- Marksman's Rifles to the core. They deliver high damage shots at long range, accurately. To use these weapins effectively, you are going to need to land shots, because wont be forgiving. They also come with an anti-oversampling mechanism to prevent losing out on any potential DPS if you accidentally fire too fast, this feature benefits some of the rifles more than others. These weapons come mounted with 4x scopes.
Neutron Rifle (G)
Damage - 100
Headshot - 200%
RoF - 300
Mag - 12
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 120-125m
Hipfire Accuracy - 2-¦ still/2.5-¦ moving/+0.1-¦ Bloom per shot
Aiming Accuracy - 0.1-¦
Recoil - 0.25-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.1-¦per shot horizontally random
The Neutron Rifle can provide great DPS out to very long ranges, but it too suffers from the harsh damage falloff that is so common in Plasma weaponry. It has a great recoil that will feel natural to most users, and is a great weapon for mercs that want to fight at a distance but don't want to worry about much more than shooting.
Battle Rifle (M)
Damage - 60
Headshot - 175%
RoF - 500
Mag - 32
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 130-150m
Hipfire Accuracy - 2.2-¦ still/2.5-¦ moving/+0.075-¦ Bloom per shot
Aiming Accuracy - 0.1-¦
Recoil - 0.2-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.12-¦per shot horizontally random
The Battle Rifle's main advantage comes from its ability to not just send massive rounds out, but continue to do so for a long time. It is a great suppressive weapon, but it can become unwieldy during continued fire.
Scrambler Rifle (A)
Damage - 90
Headshot - 375%
RoF - 600
Mag - 8
Reload - 2.25s short/2.25s long
Optimal - 140-170m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1-¦ still/1-¦ moving/+0-¦ Bloom per shot
Aiming Accuracy - 0.05-¦
Recoil - 0.1-¦ per shot upwards/ 0.1-¦ per shot horizontally random
Charge Time - 1.0s
Charge multiplier - 200% Damage
Charge heat - 300%
Heat Threshold - 100
Heat Per Shot - 20
Heat Cooling - 33 per second
Feedback damage - 200
The Scrambler Rifle is a heavy hitter in the right hands. It can provide blistering damage at range, and is the most accurate weapon in its class. Not only does it do massive damage to the brains of its targets, but it can be charged up to provide even more damage.
It suffers from a truly draconic heat problem however. Studies have shown that many users of this rifle are almost as likely to kill themselves as they are to kill the enemy. Only with the most advanced of heat-sinks and cooling apperatuses, does the issue become reasonably manageable.
Bolt Rifle (C)
Damage - 125
Headshot - 200%
RoF - 240
Mag - 10
Reload - 2.0s short/2.5s long
Optimal - 155-190m
Hipfire Accuracy - 1.5-¦ still/2.0-¦ moving/+0.5-¦ Bloom per shot
Aiming Accuracy - 0.1-¦
Recoil - 0.7-¦ per shot vertically upwards/ 0.15-¦per shot horizontally random
Spool-time - 0.25s
The Bolt Rifle hits really hard, and at unrivaled ranges. It does however, like most Caldarian weaponry, require to be spooled up before firing. It also kicks quite hard compared to some other weapons in its class, this is mitigated by the slow rate of fire though.
That's it for Rifles. I tried to create as much variety as I could, while making sure that each one was useful. |
