quite a few threads on it,
Not so hot, take 50% off splash, nurf its damage and remove the +25% weaponry damage and there aren't too many redeeming features. when it takes a full clip and an extra shot from a proto level weapon to kill a proto suit you know there is some trouble. otherwise, all is well. pull the trigger and a projectile comes out, it doesn't land where the visual indicates and with the nurfed splash radius, the visual landing place will go damage free..but it goes boom and what more can you ask for?

It has longer range than an AR I had a guy shooting at me but he was to far away thankfully he was on low health and seemed to assume if he cant hit me I cant hit him so he just stood still and reloaded as my MD lazily flew towards him +50 wp and hatemail later MD's are now OP apparently. |

After the nerf double whammy? Really?
Damage and splash radius got ninja nerfed, arcing trajectory got adjusted, standard assault is gone and the breach is still crap. Without the damage or splash radius, you could suppress people better if you swung it at them. They should give the assault it's radius back and the standard it's damage for balance. Breach can stay where it is because nobody will ever use it. |

Yes sadly I have noticed if I kill the generic lonewolf AR guy on the other team (theres always one running around like rambo on acid.) I get hatemail most of the time especially if they are using proto/officer gear, and what ever I used to kill them is OP, for example killed a proto guy with a militia scrambler pistol in my basic standard suit = SP is OP mail. Out range an AR with the MD = MD is OP and my all time favourite see a shield tanker drop a flux at his feet then slaughter them like a helpless bunny = flux grenades are op why should a grenade take all my shields. To which I reply well locus's take all my armour so its balacanced. Which is apparently a bad idea disagreeing with Mr Rambo leads to more hatemail I might just start replying to your weapon is OP mails with "I know but I try to even it out with playing without my glasses on." just to see what they say. |

It's both just as bad and not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. Everything sucks for 1v1 now. The game can no long be played solo. And now you see a lot more team v team. this is good for the Md because it still destroys people who out out of shields. It's a good mop-up weapon.
I wouldn't use it if you're trying to play frontline though... it's even more support now. |

Support is not the word I would use.
Last build it would absolutely support your squad with suppressive area damage. Now there is more dust than actual splash damage and it is more a hindrance to your unit as you haven't put a ***** in the enemy shields and now made them invisible for all the dust. |

You pretty much have to run with flux grenades. The other thing I do is wait to lob MD rounds until my squad works the shields down. If I am playing with a lot of randoms and no squad, I would probably not use the MD. |
