Literally only viable weapon in game, if you're using anything else, you're doing it wrong.
Easiest weapon by far (pun intended) to pick up kills, and pretty much only way to compete.
If you can show me one other infantry weapon that can outclass it, give me any reasonable point and it will be countered.
CCP you've really messed up weapons, its gotten to the point where its just boring to use any weapon. I hate using AR's but I lo hate dying to Tac AR's so the whole thing is just boring. |

Seriously need chromosome build restored, the only fix that was needed then was range on cqc weapons like shotguns, and the laser needed a slight nerf, that's it. now the entire game is cobbler vs cobbler and there isn't room for individualism in gameplay. the variety of play styles is gone. CCP had a great game, now it's more of a cqc trainer for other fps games. |

Running around with the TAC Duvolle in a decent suit costs 100k plus per pop so obviously this weapon should be good. This is the top assault rifle on the market. |

if the Creodron Breach is meant to be high damage and the Duvolle Tac medium damage, why does the breach only do 56dmg and the tac 78dmg?
Surely the Tac should be doing damage in the middle between Duvolle Assault (37.4) and Creodron Breach (56.1)
So tac should be around 46dmg per shot (and will still need it's ROF fixed) |

Are there people out there who think that an 80k weapon should work any differently?

...
I never said it was broken although it's easy to see it is because of the ridiculous ROF you can get with it combined with the damage. Remember, I use this a lot now.
Also, most people using the Duvolle Tax have about 100-200 million ISK so 0 **** given about the pricing.
Next, you mention skills?
Why can't the Creodron do as well then? Or the Viziam now? Or the other proto weapons? Face it, it's broken, or the whole game but the tac is broken. |

Absolutely right, the tac duvolle puts out 1000 dps, so I want my mass driver to do the same (since it is more expensive at 126k isk)
Since I pay more, I want my explosion to be 12 meters, and the thing shoots at 750 rpm, the explosion deals 300 damage. I specced into it! It's a-ok to be over powering all the other weapons

Please educate me. |

Wait until PC launches and see how top corps deal with it proto vs proto. You could give top corps a water gun and they'd still pub stomp with it. Oh wait, we already did that with the HMG. Oops, my bad! |

Broken? At what point did you forget you are playing a beta version of the game and the full release is yet to come? Of course the game is broken in some areas. What else do you expect?

says everybody who uses this weapon as a crutch lol
I don't understand how a tactical rifle has a faster ROF than a normal AR, which also does MORE DAMAGE can be fine.
How can a tactical AR have a faster DPS than a fully auto one is beyond me.
But hey, rest assured the majority of gamers find the easiest most OP thing to use and god forbid they require skill to kill people again
A semi auto that has a higher ROF than a fully auto one... hahahahahaha GG |

I didn't play much before this build. Said I'd give Uprising a shot. Since I returned I've used the TAR almost exclusively. The problem is not that the TAR is OP, but that all the other guns are severely underpowered.
As an example: today out of boredom I decided to try out the Breach AR. Well.... all I can say is I'm amazed that CCP think a range of 50m or whatever on an assault rifle is acceptable.
Needless to say, after a good laugh at the inept handling of FPS weapon mechanics by CCP I respawned with a TAR.

A scrub? Hardly
Look at the kill feed on the top right of your screen in the next game and you'll see most of the kills are getting racked up with the TAR. It's being used by n00bs and vets alike. For 2 reasons:
- The TAR is the only AR in the game that comes close to what most players would deem a "regular" gun in any other FPS. It's familiar and it drops red dots.
- This game is ruthless. People will stack every advantage they can get, like water we follow the route of least resistance. Don't pretend for a second that all the non-"scrub" players/corps won't take advantage every time CCP drop the ball.

Just blind firing this thing from the hip with a mouse macro earns me crazy points. Im no slouch but TARs make it easy mode. Squads of TARs as far as the eye can see. Welcome to new eden. |

Everything but the TAR needs a buff. I understand why people think it's OP, but thats because they run around with underpowered guns that can take 2 clips to drop a red dot. TARs are right where they should be. |

This is my first post on the forums so I suppose my word may not have much weight so to speak.
IMO yes the other guns are underpowered, most likely in the range department. But this gun when "normal" or even more so when fitted with damage mods is rediculous to say the least. IMO no single handheld gun should be able to output that much damage. This coupled with the other guns having no range makes it even worse.
Pretty sure I have come across a fully automatic varient of this gun. I kept thinking a SMG was dropping me, then I looked at the kill info and it was the Proto Tac gun.
Literaly 4-5 (sometimes less) shots with this thing will drop me and I have roughly 500 shield and 300 hp.
The damge output now makes it almost useless to use any armor rep mods because 9 outta 10 times as soon as I take fire from something I am dead anyway.
I can't imagine how newberries must feel.
This gun is almost like the new sniper rifle honestly because of the range decrease to all guns. Your team gets pinned down because at the range that this thing can put 3 rounds into and kill you, nothing else can even touch it.
Rant off LOL
Sorry I have been frustred lately by continuously getting pwned with this thing. |

Vets use anything that's easier and more powerful. Simple.
And this "advantage" you speak of is aka exploiting...and in this case exploiting a gun with a ROF that make its DPS more than an HMG.
I guess you were one of those people that said dumb firing swarms against infantry was legit and wasn't OP...cuz hey, they're taking "advantage" of what's made available.
So yeah, I'm back to saying scrubs rely on this weapon. I have no problem with people saying they're using it to counter other Duvolle tact. players, but don't in the same line say that the gun is "fine".
Good players know this gun is so stupidly OP, and tbh, if they were really as good as they claim, then they won't have need for such an OP gun. But hey, nothing beats an old fashioned all proto gear pubstomp using all the OP stuff huh!
All the top AR players who consider themselves good, shouldn't defend this gun. You're making yourselves look like scrubs that need a crutch |

Good first post, more of this kind of constructive talk is needed in these parts
Your point about the damage mods is a good one and something I hadn't considered (I'm still lowly enough that I don't have SP to spare on those kind of fandangled contraptions). With the rights mods and SP bonuses I suspect the Duvolle is capable of outputting in the range of 85-90 per hit. Would make short work of me and I have some"decent" fittings. |

Because you don't realize that the "final product" is in 2 days, and that the game played so much better even with all the **** that CCP pulled in the earlier builds. Guys like you who accept this sort of **** are reason the game is so ****ed up right now. |

I think ccp messed up when they buff the damage a second time with the 10% buff. But if they just nerf the cqc capabilities of the tac AR from the hip the gun should work as advertised. |
