First and foremost, the range is TERRIBLE compared to the standard variant. Where I could normally hit enemies with the standard, the breach doesn't reach at all. Damage is absolutely fine though. Mag clip is ok I guess.
Perhaps I've been spoiled by the range on the breach. |

When I think of the word "Breach", I think of a really high ROF weapon that's capable of penetrating straight through defenses.... what we have though is a gun with extremely low ROF that can't penetrate defenses and has very bad range even with sharpshooter lvl 4. Damage is good though. |

Breach shotguns are great! (Well so far, my teammates get one-shotted 99% of the time by it so....yeah) I haven't touched pistols. I haven't figured out how to use SMG's well yet. |

Like the swarm launcher, CCP just did a quick hammer swing to the weapon, and will likely build it back up as time goes on. This thread has definitely been passed around like a $2.....yea....so, search is your friend bro. we need more threads on this the breach is currently a travesty, he hasn't taken up anyones posting room except maybe another nerf heavy post or someone is felxing their epeen while trying to diguise it as asking for help or whatever
The Breach has the potential to become a more used weapon if only it had more range on it and SLIGHTLY a bit more ROF. Clip size is decent for a gun that dishes out plenty of damage per bullet. |

But I play with AR's from a slightly longer distance than most AR players do and found its range disgraceful. Perhaps, since it's called a "Breach weapon", its more meant to be a CQC weapon? |

Okay, if it was meant to be a CQC "Breach weapon", shouldn't it be breaching through the enemies' lines of defenses instead of doing more harm to you? (As in getting overwhelmed by a standard AR). Like I stated before: a "breach" weapon has 3 different definitions to me:
1) Able to actually pierce through the enemies' defenses (a.k.a. shield penetration and higher armor damage)
2) Low clip, high ROF, high damage, little range, tight hipfire (breaking through enemy lines should be quick and sudden a.k.a. low clip but high ROF and high damage)
3) Or a somewhat opposite of #2: high clip, very low ROF, very high damage, little range, tight hipfire
In any case, a "breach" weapon should be decimating enemies in little to no time at however, very close range. The breach shotgun fits the "breach" category very well. |
