this should be the fourth point in the OP.
If the only viable answer to a weapon is the same weapon then it is overpowered.
It's like people screaming lasers were OP last build. Once I figured out how they worked and how to kill them my deaths to them became rare, because different mechanics were exploitable. even in a fatsuit I was able to close distance and execute viziam wielders because in CQC Lasers were about as threatening as a toddler wielding a damp sock.
With the Tac AR, I have a screwy, lame PS3. Before they were adjusted that was the weapon that pretty much got me every time. There was no reasonable counter because I didn't care enough about AR to spec in, but did fine versus GEK-38 and Duvolles with my preferred weapons. now that the Tac has been brought down, I still get smacked around with the tac, but more common use weapons have the floor now.
People are going to ***** about mass drivers, but without the one-two punch of flux grenades they are more or less worthless versus the current meta of caldari logi suits. So the "noobtube" isn't a huge concern.
The flaylock requires you to be able to lead a target flawlessly because a simple misjudgment of distance lands the shot ten feet behind the target. Plus shields don't get punked as easily as armor does with them.
The HMG is a weapon for the patient and murderously coldblooded of discipline right now because it's still not an easy kill gun because of limitations of the fatsuits.
Forge guns... Yeah people will never stop complaining about forge guns because Damn, they're too fun to smite people with even though for average attacks it takes a full clip to kill someone, and a lot of morbid humor to be patient enough to make it work.
the list goes on. Now people are whingeing about the scrambler rifle. Since the TAC AR lost it's crown they have realized in the meta of shield tank > armor tank the scrambler is absolutely brutal. It was meant to butcher shields. If armor didn't suck it would be less effective against half the race dropsuits.
the list goes on, but I'm bored. moving along now.
TL;DR: No One Loves You (NOLY)
