Turret and as a Primary AV weapon, nor to does it really represent the nature of superior fire power

Suggestion: Alter the Large Blaster so it better reflects the nature of Blaster Turrets EVE side. Each
time a Hybrid Blaster Turret fire it shoots off a volley, cycles, and then fires off another volley. In
order to reflect this the Large Blaster should be altered to fire Plasmas Cannon Rounds. Each
magazine for the blaster should have 6 rounds, with a very short reload time, and have the firing arc
and small AoE of the plasma Cannon at roughly 3.5m
So. Much. No.
True, I respect your vehicle opinions but not on this... You want this? Make a proposal for this to be a NEW turret entirely.
PLEASE, for the love of odd, no more changes to large blasters. The booming sound through the stereo is what makes me call them out and drive.
I have insane trouble killing infantry now. Working as intended Rattati, can confirm.
When hardeners become limited to one, tanks not so much.
Triple ion blasters with two competent gunners, I can still go ham like it was chrome again. (vs HAV, my gunners add that needed oomph to break tank, and also kill any infantry dumb enough to poke out... sooo working as intended eh?)
A slight range and dmg per round buff is all I need. I can suppress infantry at the moment. Dedicated AV not so much, they get out of all blasters (S/L) optimal and stand still knowing if we do score a hit, it won't deal enough dmg to suppress. The proposed RoF would be a joke vs all other large turrets. And 1550 at PRO? LOL ....see how long that lasts before nerfed into oblivion.
This proposal would make "plasma volley cannon" easy mode bs for farming infantry, and WORTHLESS against competent AV.
Seeing as the slow arc is easily dodged from HAV ranges. I never die from PLC from long range as infantry or HAV, it's the close ones that get the blap.
Three days and every scout in new eden would gather to burn the forums down from all the splash deaths.
I agree more than anyone that blasters are in a dark place, but this is not the light at end of tunnel.
My suggestion; Give us a burst blaster variant much like HMG and see how that fares vs HAV. Increased dispersion from insane RoF would hamper infantry farming vs all but the most combat un-aware, but still allow suppression. Heat management would become a risk/reward concern for blast-HAV to not linger in one spot. Pair with dmg module for hard targets at the cost of tank.
Any other blaster-HAV out there agree?

With the odds of medium turrets actually happening.. I would rather keep what I have before being forced into an alien turret.
I don't PLC. So this ruins my entire skill tree if it happens.
Edit; Meaning my large and small blasters V would be wasted because I don't care for PLC projectile style. Forcing me out of my desired weapon.. And I have already been forced out of my desired hull to remain competitive. So I cannot support this even IF mediums happen.

Don't real world it or we could just one-shot each other.
Where have you been? Have you tried to kill infantry with a large lately? Drove all match without death finding me, only killed 4 infantry. And that is not an isolated statistic. You would prefer it was zero maybe?
a.) 40-80mm is considered anti material (as is .50 cal but w/e) and still retains a very nice fire rate.
b.) We call it the plasma rifle, but it's really just another AR.
c.) So we can't MAKE it AV by raising dmg and range? My burst suggestion you didn't even second glance?
d.) You don't aim PLC, you arc it. ( yes I know, a form of aim, but rails are your artillery and they have no drop so rejoice) And if you think it won't be VERY good at killing infantry, you clearly didn't read your own suggestion.
Moreover, it sounds very much like you would be happy with the removal of large blasters before a replacement could be worked out.
Yup. Personal. I am the final word in blaster operation. And lo, here is your PERSONAL suggestion to completely remove and replace with something totally foreign, my turret. So yes, I consider it a very bad idea.
This would have to come with a full respec token, not just blaster tree, as I would be done with HAV forever. But undoubtedly that's not on your agenda.
Take it there, and I will follow, brougham.

plasma rifle was just a kick at wanting things to be more gal lol
to me its just a classic AR nothing gal/space/eve/special
I come off as hostile, I know, but it's the forums. I hate being here, but it's the only way to be heard over the gunfire.
As for 22/0... jeezus gawd, do you have a key for academy matches idk about??? I went 12/0 yesterday but that was five HAV, one with three, one with two, one fully loaded LAV. Sadness.
o7 btw
