Here's an idea... NERF it. Unless you think it's fair that a sidearm can do 1000+ damage in 4 shots... have 60m range... have the strongest Aim Assist in the game... have a head shot multiplier that's just ridiculous... , or you could move it to the sniper rifle category

I love how not a single thread about the bolt pistol addresses any relevant data, like comparison to SMG sales (which outnumber it 2:1) or have any video, numbers, or any evidence beyond "IT DUN KILLED MEH!!"
A Space Magnum is going to hit like a Magnum. Surprise, surprise.

And sometimes things are genuinely not OP.
I think the bolt pistol is horrifically annoying, and I'd support some mechanics changes, but thats completely different from it being OP, and I dont think it deserves or needs a nerf.
And to tell you where Im coming from, my favorite weapon is the scrambler rifle, which Im trying to get nerfed. I wont even use the stupid thing because its so OP.
Im a big fan of the ak.0 and mk.0 assaults, both of which Ive suggested nerfs for.
Back when scouts were huge I played Cal Scout almost exclusively and was constantly trying to get the broken shotgun/cloak/damp combo nerfed.
Sometimes things are broken, sometimes they are just annoying as hell or people have wierd conspiracy theories about them (like Cal Scout hitbox and the bolt pistol aim assist, which is no better than any other hitscan pistol's aim assist). |

Before it was super-buffed, it was actual a balanced SIDEARM. Now, it's still hand-cannon, that's the one of the top 3 weapons in the game |

I turned AA on for five matches with a dual bolt pistol setup.
It was meh.
Turned AA off again and got my deadeye back.
I think it rewards people who aim.
Does it headshot like a Mack truck? Yes.
Will it hipfire a scout into ashes? Yes.
Do my bullets warp time and bend space? Lolno
(I begged to keep 6 shooter variant so don't fotm me boi)

Video, numbers, maybe a dev post stating it's needing to be tuned? Anything at all relevant?

I told him the problem with it is the range, that's it. You can't have a tactical weapon that's supposed to reward accuracy when the range is abysmal compared to that of an assault Combat Rifle.
More damage isn't even the question to it like Rattati is thinking about giving it, Jesus. I really hate it when they do that ninja crap out of nowhere....what am I even talking about anymore.

Before it was buffed It was a piece of trash that nobody used except for giggles. And the top three weapons in the game are HMG, shotgun, and scrambler rifle, probably closely followed by the ASCR, ARR, and combat rifle variants (these are guesses, but its certainly not the bolt pistol). |

Before it was buffed, it was the most balanced gun CCP ever released. It was perfect.

Wait are we still talking about this? 8 months ago, just before I took my dust-cation the bolt pistol nerd threads were all over the place. Have the numbers changed again or are people still talking about the same weapon I remember?
I will put together some charts and make some actual comparisons of pistol stats so we can revive an actual conversation about this rather than complaining and throwing anecdotal evidence about like it it is fact.
Now with more evil.

I protod it out when it first came out n ive been using it the weapon is meant to tear through armor issue with this weapon n allot of others like scr combat hell even the rr came it it wasnt doing the correct profile a armor weapon like rail weapons is supposed to tear through armor but be pitifull against shields same for laser it demolished shields befor n now it does that to both : / the assault rifle was the only weapon in game that was balanced does great against shields ok against armor not amazing but ok. Cr eeeehhhh needs a bit of balancing n I say balancing not nerf cuz of same issue

Why would the playerbase flock to something fair and balanced?? This playerbase is garbage, and will only use FoTM, then deny it... |

I've been bested plenty times while using the bolt pistol, the trick is to not get hit and take advantage of the low rate of fire. :) |

I have 30 fittings.
1 uses nova knives, 4 are commandos, 1 ion pistol, 3 use bolt pistols, 1 uses a scrambler pistol (for the lulz), 20 use SMGs.
SMGs are flavor of the forever. Not because they are imbalanced, but because they are the best overall sidearm. The only thing the bolt pistol has over the SMG are range, so I use it with shotgun and HMG fits. That is the only niche they have. These things arent OP, they arent even FOTM, I see them in maybe 30% of the games Im in, much less get killed by them. Meanwhile I see SMG every single game. Again not because the SMG is OP, but because its the best all around sidearm.
Stop trying to get one of the 4 functional sidearms nerfed. We dont need another useless boondogle, I already have stupid screw around trolling fits with the ion pistol and the scrambler pistol, I dont need another one.
Even now with all the agitation on the forums the thing isnt used nearly as much as the SMG, thats because people use it and actually notice that the SMG serves them better in 90% of instances where a sidearm is needed, and literally any light weapon is better than the bolt pistol. |

Before the buff, you had to land 5/6 to drop a medium. 1-2 on head. 2/6 to drop a scout. 1 to the head.
Heavies... Prolly don't try it. Unless you felt good enough to land 3 headshots...
So yeah, it was far from fotm lol
