First off, what does breach mean to you player base?

Oh, you say something that can punch through a line of defense, say, a room? OK then. Based off of that logic:

1. Keep DPS the same as it is now
2. Nerf range to be 5-10 meters less than the regular variant's optimal
3. Nerf ammo reserve, as it should be restricted to breaching and shouldn't be capable of sustained attack without nanohives

My reasoning for #2 is that in its current state, there is no reason to run the regular variant over the breach, DPS, damage application, range, and damage per clip are all superior on it. The range Nerf would further define its role as the better alternative for breaching situations.

If it's losing a it reserve, I'd add onto that a widening of the dispersion (as to weaken it at range) and a VERY FUKING SMALL increase in damage. 2-5 points of hurt added. It brings it to be superior then a regular AR at "breaching range", but then suffers as range increases. Then, drop the optimal 20meters to 50, to more securely nail it into its spot.

^this guy gets it

100% agree. I would have added the more damage part, but I know soem body would be like " y u add damage to OP weapon!"

Really, this should be gold.

Meeko Fent Kirkinen Risk Control Caldari State 2193	Posted - 2014.12.05 01:45:00 - [1] - Quote What do you guys want to do with it. You all want to nerf it, but so few actually seem to know what they think it wrong. They just say the "Something is wrong" because of its. use. I've seen people say that The damage increase was too much, and that the range needs to be toned down. IMO, the range should be toned down a bit (A historically CQC gun hitting FARTHER [By 4 meters] then its regular range counterpart? lulno), but reducing its damage will be the deathstroke to it, again. Its current DPS is something similar to the Regular AR, so nerfing it would drag it back into the dark dungeon w/ the Old Flay and the AV nades. And I hear the Dungeon Master is getting his whips out. It does gain more from a damage mod then a Regular does, so that's a thing. Not sure If its a BIG issue, but that's a niche the Breach could fit in. Glass Cannoning a Assault. The thing has a tighter dispersion, and so perhaps it makes it better at long range? I guess? All the rifles are VERY accurate anyway. Any thoughts? I'd just like to spark thoughts on WHY the breach is OP, because we all seem to be bandwagoning. I Live for Tears

So it's perfectly okay for the weapon to do the same dps as the regular AR yet at 30 meters? So does that means it's perfectly okay for the aRR to have 400 dps but only have an optimal of 60 meters? There is a reason why long range weapons have lower dps, although not by much, but because it is balanced. That's the whole point of using short range weapons is to have high dps, If my AR was only good at 40 meters and had the same dps as a rail I would never have a reason to use the AR. supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

That's your Classic Caldari Silver Spoon **** right there. I'd personally prefer for the breach to turn more into a Rail Rifle like Plasma Rifle. More Range, less Damage per shot. But that's just me in my niche opinion. CCP holds the Caldari's hand so this doesn't happen again.
