It does way too low damage on armor. It's just a pain to use it. Lots of kill assists. AR still rule unfortunately. |

Yea but the charge variant headshot... mmmmm one shot one kill...
The assault is great at close quarters even vs armor.
Also skill up the flaylock ... deadly combo... |

So... what you are saying is... the SR that does the same amount of damage on armor as a AR... doesn't do enough damage as an AR....that does the same damage to armor?

You seem to know your lasers. 2 melee kills today one with a active scanner in my hand. LR and hand to hand is the way to go if you are a logi. I get at least 2 melee a day with my LR logi and I love it. |

I was full LR assault in last build. Thing is the LR has increasing damage by continuous fire, so I could get kills. This thing is just too weak. |

I think the issue is how lasers work compared to blasters in general not the stats of the weapons.
Lasers do 50% to armor, 150% to shields. But ARs do 110% to armor, 90% to shields
Shouldn't it be more like 50-70% to shields and 140% to armor?
And there should be skills to boost the damage on weapons on the weakness. Blasters need to be stopped by shields in the same way lasers are stopped by armor. |

It does seem weak but I also didn't skill into a suit that gives me a bonus so I can't use it to its fullest. |

This is why the AR should do 150% damage to armor and 50% damage to shields
Also gives a reason to use ammar suits since they have equal armor and shields. |

IMO the gun needs a bit more damage so that it doesn't suck so much vs armor.

from what I recall, this is what the supposed damage break down was going to be by race for Assault rifles Gallente Plasma AR: 110% shields, 90% armor Caldari Gauss AR: 90% shields, 110% armor Amarr Laser/scrambler AR's: ~130% shields, ~70% armor Minmitar Projectile AR's: ~70% shields 130% armor
this just what i remeber from this being discussed way back in closed beta a bit, no idea if it is still accurate, or has changed |

It's almost like you have to use teamwork and have someone else with you shooting at enemies with a non-laser-based weapon. |

I highly recommend having an SMG or Flaylock when using this weapon guys. Very bad weapon for a logisuit (which I specced into lmao). |

I dunno, maybe add a sidearm that is designed to be strong against armor and switch to it for the kill once shields are gone.
Or if a logi, run next to someone who does just that... like a heavy? |

Did that with SMG and it works. I'll have to respec again because I have wasted points on logibro and the weapon really needs the sidearm. Imperial SR is another story, very cool weapon and the difference in damage to armor is barely noticeable due to the high damage. Still TAC AR wins in range and no overheat.

Scramblers are not supposed to do a lot of damage to armour, just like ARs do crappy damage to shields. |

Ars are supposdd to do equal damage to armor and shields... no bonus to either but pretty sure it has bonuses.

Hahaha well that, but what really annoys me is shooting Minmatar/Caldari full shirlds down and emptying whole clip just to get killed instead, kill assist or the bastard runs to cover around the corner with around 30 armor left just because 80% damage to armor.
