I hate the things.
yeah, i was asking a serious question, i do think that as they are, if you know how to use and aim them, they are a deadly weapon. they also cause a lot of panic and are hard to tell where people are shooting from.
i love my mass driver. |

actually they do explode, the animation just doesnt happen sometimes, as someone who uses mass drivers almost exclusivly i can confirm this |

yeah you need a nanohive if you use a mass driver. those things EAT ammo like no other weapon, that is its biggest weakness. even with max capacty skill you skill only get about 20 shots |

no its not a shotgun, but i would agree that range is a problem, its a mid range weapon only. shooting point blank like a shotgun will only result in you getting damaged yourself or killed. |

to be brutally honest sitting in a hard to reach place with a nanohive taking potshots with a straight line sniper rifle that can one shot most suits isnt an indication of skill :P
though i will admit you where quite good with it, your still not in the league of sleepy zan, our resident super sniper :P
Going back to mass drivers, I started using them towards the end of the e3 build and almost exclusively this whole previous build so now i can almost instinctively know how to aim to take a shot regardless of where they are.
It just takes practice to use but they are deadly,
a direct hit from a mass driver will instakill most suits with the exception of heavies. Certainly all scouts. |
