How about breach shotgun:
Clip 2 -> 2 (same)
Range 5 -> 10
Reload 1.3 - > 0.8
The whole point of the 2 round clip is its like the double barrelled shotgun, so this shouldn't change. The gun should be good with this premise intact. 10m range would give the weapon a great place on the battlefield, much more viable on a wide range of suits. The reload speed is currently ludicrous. There's no need for it to be slower than a regular shotgun, per shot. |

There's no need for it to be slower than a regular shotgun, per shot. I don't know that the intended design is to emulate a double barreled shotgun. If it is, then why is RoF so low? Shouldn't a double barreled shotgun empty both barrels in rapid succession if not simultaneously? I think it much more likely that the 2 round clip is an outdated hold-back from Chromosome, when 1 breach blast was sufficient to drop most medframes and 2 was sufficient to kill anything. Edit: Not that I'd oppose your proposed changes; a 10m, tight-spread shotgun could be very useful. I'd be surprised if that's not the original intent. The slow rate of fire is probably an attempt to make the gun work in dust.
I could be wrong. Two shots in a clip is quite distinctive. It would be a shame to lose this in my opinion.

EDIT: Updated OP, added some sidearms
Doubling the range would make it much easier. Who said the weapon should be easy? It's potentially devestating. |
