Sooooo this has dawned on me ALOT
currently in game there is an Anti Material prototype sniper for aurum according to the description it says it can one shot LAVs with a PRECISE shot...im guessing a specific part of the LAV u gotta hit

problem i have is this...................there is no ISK variant............this is PAY TO WIN.
This proto sniper is not a sidegrade but a completely unique weapon with Light Anti vehicle capabilities if we go by the description, why isnt there an ISK variant????

I am no sniper nor have i seen these AM rifles in work and i am not gonna actually train sniper skills to proto lvl just to test this as i do not like the still long range sniping DUST requires

anyway would like to hear from peeps what they think of this and CCP as well
dont get me wrong its good that this game has an AM rifle but needs an ISK variant tbqh

I used it last build and it's just like other rifles

With the only possible exception that It can OHK vehicles right? Seems the same to me.

it CAN'T one hit kill vehicles. any vehicle.. ever. for infinity. no matter where you shoot it.

those descriptions are called "flavor text" they just make the game look good. you can hit triangle and actually see the stats on stuff.

the horizon kaalakiota actually has the EXACT same stats as the ishukone sniper rifle, that you buy with isk. the only advantage to the aurum version, is you need less skill training to use it. so when you think about it it actually ends up worse since the skill increases damage.

there ARE broken aurum guns (minddrive: to much damage. killswitch: not enough damage) but this isn't one of them.

Killswitch is more than good enough

it absolutely, 100% is not. look at it. look at it closely.

it does the same damage as the blindfire rifle, only it uses double the PG/CPU.

As a 4 year EVE player, don't read too far into the descriptions for anything. Several of the Temperate planets still list surface temperatures of 233 Kelvin.
