But the Core Locus which has 7.2m radius and 600 damage is alright?
The Core Locus does more than the best mass driver's direct impact damage with Boundless assault type splash radius.
This is too much damage in too wide an area for the CQC type fights that the removal of sharpshooter has gifted us with.
CCP was right to nerf the mass driver, the splash radius would have been far too high in this build. Sniping from up top would be way to powerful, as would it be up close. The first thing that popped into my mind when they announced the removal of sharpshooter was that the MD would be rigged.
The Flux and Locus gernade (The AV being mostly neglected now for the power of the first two) have roughly the same range as before SS removal. That and their radius are clearly too strong for this build. They need to be nerfed at least in line with the MD nerf, if not significantly more.

Furthermore I am going to say that this is one of the most pressing issues to fix of the build. They are so strong that it is hard to judge the other aspects of the game. Gernades dominate short range... Tac AR dominates long range. Not very exciting. |

Ishukone Gauged Nanohives and Core Locus gernades. If you aren't slaughtering people, you are doing it wrong. |

I bait and switched on the title.
This thread is really about gernades and not the mass driver. If I could have found a good example with the tac AR or logistics class, I would have. Read please. Gernades are too strong. |

Yeah, I kinda figured that people would be resistant to nerfing something that they all have. Just trying to make a suggestion that will make the game less of a nade spam fest. For the doubters: You have a great number of core locus gernades waiting for you on the battlefield. Have fun trying to fight CQC.
I guess it isn't too big a deal if you are running TAC AR. |
