The Swarm Launcher is strictly better at the AV role than the forge gun for various reasons.
The Swarm launcher Can be carried by any suit, Out damages the Forge Gun, Out Ranges the forgegun, lock on range is about 150m but the missiles themselves will follow 500m while the forge gun has a max range of 300m and is a fire and forget weapon
Meanwhile the Forge gun gun MUST be carried by a heavy, has to be aimed, is weaker, and must be carried by a goddamn heavy.
Any suggestion for NERFING SWARM LAUNCHERS or BUFFING FORGE GUNS? Please nothing as simple as modifying the damage.
Did you just suggest the Forgegun is a fire and forget weapon while the Swarm Launcher is not? Or is this just satire?

The Missiles themselves will Follow the target up to 500m and will always hit unless obstructed and as with the Swarms, A good forger will not engage at absolute range and instead wait for the target to get closer or move closer themselves.
Or they don't have to because they're super good!

Point being an swarmlauncher can be put on a commando suit and be equally deadly against infantry and vehices throughout a match. While an forgegunning heavy is depented on support and are easily ganked. The forge gun already OHK 99 percent of the suits ingame so it really doesnt matter if it was DPS buffed from infantrys perspective.
..............Swarm Launcher can be put on one of four commando dropsuits and be deadly.
