Oh, how I do love my Flux Grenades.
I'm sticking through the patch as a dedicated Heavy, but I'll have to see exactly how bad HMG is getting nerfed before I decided to switch to AR or something else. In my opinion, HMG should have lost all range extension skills, and that's it.
By the way, odd side effect of the suit/weapon price equalization:
HMG Heavy is going to go from the most expensive suit to field to the cheapest.
Why? Having fewer slots means less ISK to lose per death, since suit and weapon cost will be the same.
Weird, eh? |

Except, that isn't true.
Within optimal range, Duvolle AR DPS is 539.21
Within optimal range, Basic HMG DPS is 674.67
If you died to a Duvolle straight up, it's because he juked better or you didn't get him in your optimal range.
Don't get me wrong, I play heavy exclusively, I die to Duvolles plenty, and I'm chafing at the patch notes too. But let's say things that are accurate, k?
(And if you mention damage mods, I'm going to have to whip out the hardcore math spanking.) |

And 100% of HMG rounds hit at 10m.
40m is outside of optimal for all but Assault HMG. (Technically, the very limit of the Broadside.)
You are discussing range, and not damage. |

Okay... now I'm worried.
What's the source on this? |

HMG Changes I could argue the merits of if they're mild on the damage side, but mucking with the slot layout is baffling to me.
I wonder if it's just to Amarr Heavy suits, and that the original Heavy slot layout would be reflected in Minmatar/Gallente/Caldari versions...
Bah. Doesn't matter much, I guess, since we aren't getting them until SOONGäó.
Time to totally rethink my play style. |
