Imp Smash Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 682	Posted - 2015.02.13 23:48:00 - [4] - Quote Well, the Aim Assist on it is kinda strong. Its easier to headshot during hip fire than aim down sights. But when used as intended and aimed down sights its damn hard to use.

Atiim Titans of Phoenix 15605	Posted - 2015.02.14 01:04:00 - [6] - Quote And? The Ion Pistol is like a Pocket Shotgun, being able to kill anything but a super-brick heavy with quickly and with ease in CQC provided that you can aim with it, the Scrambler Pistol is like a Pocket Scrambler Rifle since a headshot will OHK anything besides a super-brick heavy, and the Flaylock Pistol is like a Pocket Mass Driver as it fires explosives in an arc. All of those (except maybe the FLP) can and do kill enemies faster than the Bolt Pistol, and yet you decided to complain about the BP? Not sure if I should laugh or cry. The 1st Matari Commando -HAND
Zindorak Nyain Chan 1706	Posted - 2015.02.14 04:30:00 - [7] - Quote 1k isk Bolt Pistol > 140k isk EWAR Gal scout I hate the stupid scrubby BP bs its a sniper which u can no scope Pokemon master and Tekken Lord Give me da iskiez Gk0 Scout yay :)
DRT 99 Storm Wind Strikeforce Caldari State 101	Posted - 2015.02.14 05:45:00 - [8] - Quote garbage damage per clip. yeah you can maybe make someone trip at 60m. other pistols can atleast make people fall over (from not laughter!) at close range. slso the 1k isk bolt pistol > 140k isk scout argument can be said about the HMG as well - BP is just less reliable.
Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 7184	Posted - 2015.02.14 08:09:00 - [9] - Quote And the militia one is hilarious. But it can take up to three shots to kill a scout becuse I use no damage mods for it. And have invested no SP. AV

Did y- hang on I'm trying to get the words out but... I just can't stop A POCKET SHOTGUN?! That's the best Dust 514 joke I've ever heard. Dude, I can't even hate you for your terrible feedback anymore, now I know it's all just a comedy act. Have you ever used the Ion Pistol?! A shotgun can actually -hit- what you point it at and doesn't try to get you killed in the eventuality that you miss xD One does not simply "aim with it", you have to pray to the Heathen Gods that they'll guide the freaggin round on target or you spend the next two seconds waving it around like a flaming baton, unable to do jack while the enemy laughs at you for being an idiot and running the Ion Pistol in the first place. The only people who run the Ion Pistol are Gallente-Loyalist role-players like Sgt Kirk and Cat Merc who try to make it work and they only do it because it's the only Gallente sidearm available, despite openly admitting that it's probably the worst weapon in the game just -because- it's so terrible. A pocket shotgun, , it's charged shot does about as much damage as the Bolt Pistol does dumb-fire; the key difference here is that you have heat management to deal with which is about as unforgiving as sleeping on a cheese grater and the seize happens -EVERY. FREAGGIN. TIME. YOU CHARGE SHOT.- Sometimes it'll overheat and seize up without even firing a round just because you were stupid enough to run an Ion Pistol. And you know what's even more hilarious? The fact that for the duration of this seize, the only thing you can do is look at your enemy and hope to god he counters you so hard your nipples pop off like champagne corks instead of giving you the false sense of hope that you might win that little encounter. A "pocket shotgun", good lord I've never heard a worst description for a paper weight. Have a suggestion for the Planetary Services Department? *Founder of AIV*

Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 7196	Posted - 2015.02.14 21:25:00 - [12] - Quote No Atiim's right you're just using the Ion pistol wrong, the proper method is to charge it and kiss the barrel as you fire. Far more effective. AV

Buwaro Draemon WarRavens Capital Punishment. 1020	Posted - 2015.02.14 22:07:00 - [17] - Quote The BP is too powerful. I see more and more Shotgun scouts equipping the BP just for the cheer reason that they can still instagank that enemy that got away from their Shotgun's range. In no way that carrying around 2 weapons that can insta gank enemy at will. The BP was fine before this buff. It just needed a hit detetction fix. But CCP made it a 2 shot death gun that has range, bullet magnetism PLUS Aim Assist. The thing is too powerful. Especially at the hands of HMG heavies and Shotgun scouts. No escape from them. Changes to Damage mods!

Aeon Amadi Chimera Core 8725	Posted - 2015.02.14 23:19:00 - [19] - Quote You know what I want? An Assault Rifle without the stock, turned into a Gallentean SMG. No charge-up/heat/gameplay gimmicks that force it into a freaggin skill-shot weapon like all the other Gallentean BS, just a straight up high-damage SMG that makes people think twice before getting within 20m.

How, exactly, is it a pocket shotgun? Do you refer to the charge shot? If you do, note that the bolt pistol essentially performs the same function, except with half the charge time, no cooldown time, twice the range, higher accuracy, and a massive headshot multiplier. Quote: All of those (except maybe the FLP) can and do kill enemies faster than the Bolt Pistol, and yet you decided to complain about the BP? Not sure if I should laugh or cry. No, they don't. A properly used bolt pistol will vastly outDPS any other sidearm apart from the scrambler pistol. moobius 2013 never forget

I think this should be corrected as a primary should always out DPS a sidearm. The bolt pistol is complained about the most because of its high alpha. so you get shot up by a primary a lot then BP you with 1 follow up shot. The BP may need a less damage per shot but i think all side arms need a nerf. They should not act as primaries. But theirs also the argument that High alpha weapons should have less DPS this Includes all weapons. I think the max potential for a basic BP is 550 DPS minus How Fast you pull the trigger. So it can equal a primary with high alpha is not good. The scrambler rifle has A choice of High alpha or High DPS because of heat build up unless you put it on a assault. Even still you lose some DPS potential if you do a full charged shot. The sniper follows this rule of only having 220 DPS so you have to rely on head shots. That is my input on this.
