hails8n DEATH BY DESTRUCTION 360	Posted - 2015.07.15 23:41:00 - [39] - Quote Breach mass driver should be able to shoot Av nades and the breach sg needs more damage for all the drawbacks or faster reload. Get some life in your hands.

VECTORS ABROAD Horizons' Edge No Context 19	Posted - 2015.07.17 18:36:00 - [41] - Quote I think the main problem with the sniper rifle is the hit detection. I have noticed on my sniper alt that it clearly hits the player but it doesn't register. Melee has the same problem. Melee just needs a guarantee that it will do the damage. I have been killed plenty of times because I creeped up on someone punched them and the hit didn't register so I get killed by them. Life sucks sometimes, much like Dust 514.
Jathniel Shining Flame Amarr Empire 1	Posted - 2015.07.17 18:45:00 - [42] - Quote First two polls are spot on. Breach Shotgun has been hurting for an eternity, and Magsec SMG is definitively outperformed by other sidearms (due to spin up?). But the third and last polls? Biased polls are biased. :p I can't believe Contact Nades took the cake. lmao Contact Nades are dead and gone for VERY good reasons. Sleek nades are the ones that could use a little buff, maybe 100 extra damage, tops. lol

Nothing more to add. Laser rifles are terrible sub-proto. And even for a prototype weapon, they're pretty bad. Too touchy, and no effective enough in their effective range to make up for it. Laser rifles are actually very good (even sub proto, even my ELM is a facemelter) once you get to know them and play your range games. Only reason people think they suck is because they try to use them as a sort of battle rifle and take it at any range thinking they should have a fair fight. Once you know it's limitations and upsides though... LUGMOS, I agree with your summary of limitations and also delight in the ability to be able to heat the lazor (correct spelling btw) and pseudo-snipe campers. However there is one limitation I find frustrating and that is the scope lens shading. In certain "moods" the ADS view is clear as mud at the optimal range of the weapon. Combine darkness or sun glare and fog and there is little or no point in ADS. Your only hope is somebody runs a scan so you can aim just below the chevron. No other scoped weapon in the game is nearly rendered useless when operated as intended. I suspect the lens shading was specifically intended to remove visual fidelity to handicap the lazor. It has never been addressed because lazor users tend to be fearful CCP will nerf the thing again and leave us high and dry. If I were to answer the question posed by the OP the one thing I'd also like to see is a slightly higher alpha damage at the cost of slightly less omega damage. In a quick draw contest at 80 m with similar levels of skill, damage mods and meta I tend to find the lazor falls short compared to the rail rifle, breach AR and RS-90. I suspect this is by design as well. The other issue is the weak sometime non existent hit detection/aim assist versus the "wiggle wiggle" suits. The lazor requires fairly precise control and a keen sense of timing. The other rifles I mentioned are spray and pray until the clip runs dry. The duration of time between a dry clip of spray and pray and the lazor overheat are two very different numbers. Overheat of the lazor tends to occur much faster. This imbalance is why most players favor the spray and pray. Blueberry!....Make yourself useful and shoot the blurry thing running this way!

Joel II X Bacon with a bottle of Quafe 8	Posted - 2015.08.28 20:15:00 - [49] - Quote Voted Breach Shotgun, Ion Pistol, and Contact Grenades. Ion needs quicker cool down, so that you don't overheat when leaving your finger on the trigger for more than a nanosecond, OR to only overheat when fully charged. I vote the second one. *Scouts United* Gk.0s & Quafes all day.

Logic ftw He means the fact that the assault SMG currently suffers a clip size penalty is ridiculous and should be buffed to at least the standard SMG clip size. Gallente is photon gear confirmed.

maybe deadcatz the nomercs 567	Posted - 2015.08.29 00:09:00 - [51] - Quote Srambler pistol has -20% vs armour? How have I been melting so many people with all the variants (not the breach,that's a wimps weapon)? And the assault smg is fine. It just needs the vanilla smg clipsize. Scrambler pistol(needs better ammo capacities) Assault smg(needs 80 in the clip and the other two types balanced with breach smg at 68 and vanilla at 72 so the things are correct with their description) Breach shotgun needs to be like the force a nature or soda popper scattergun from team fortress 2(has a fire rate bonus but a 2 shotclip. And needs to be reloaded at a fair pace.) 'Perhaps fate will bless us,before this world opens its maw and swallows us'-space pirate encrypted log. They all died.
