Just started rolling with the heavy suit, I'm a huge fan of it. Being able to stand up to a tank or any other vehicle/dropship is quite a feat and rewards you well.( Who doesn't love blowing people up?) Anyway I noticed that while charging up the shot, you can't move! The range of the forge gun has also been reduced compared to the older build. What gives? I loved running around with a heavy suit, and teaching that tank a real lesson in destruction! Ok, so I get they thought the weapon was overpowered and reduced the range, but making me a sitting duck? Your range of moment is already bad enough, having to carry around that huge gun around, plus your in a heavy suit so your no Usain Bolt out there. And now we can't even move? How does this make sense? There really wasn't anything wrong with the heavy suit before when you charged a Forge Gun, so why has it been changed? This is a suit that's being picked on just because it takes skill to use and use well. No one likes getting murdered by a tank countless times, and your favourite heavy suit guy is supposed to be there to help you! But they can't if there stuck right in front of a tank with no way to move around |

Use the assault forge instead

The mobility loss coupled with the longer charge time was a terrible idea |

Lol. But the Breach Forge does some crazy damage. Nearly 4000 for prototype with all skills. |

Assault has better overall DPS but Breach is best for massive burst damage, which can crush certain types of vehicle builds. |

yeah but not being able to move is enough to justify the damage. the charge time should come down |

I use the Breach Forge gun with 10 percent boost and the result is a Dead meat Tank Sargaris. |

Well its a VERY situational weapon, only going to be useful like 2% of the time, but still its a good idea to have a loadout ready with one in case one of those rare situations comes up. |

Breach is more so for Drop ships and LAV's, and helping out with lower tier tanks, and using teamwork for higher end ones. |

wouldn't that be nice. If they stay still when they start taking fire, sure, but any tank driver worth the title will bolt as soon as they start taking that amount of damage.

We need to practice AV ambush tatics.
1. Swarm launchers to take down shields with a Forge gunner to bust up the armour when it is exposed. the range issue is a problem, hopefully "THEY" will get their act together look at a few web sites about the stats of real AV weapons and balance the weapons in the right direction.
2. multi flux grenades then multi AV grenades at close range, with deployed explosive packs as backup. |

Curious has any one else noticed that the charge time doesn't decrease for the forge gun no matter your lvl in operation? Btw I was testing it with a breach |
