this is just my opinion but to me all small turrets are total trash right now, id rather sit on the car with my assault rifle than use the turrets, they cant hit targets for anything, and if the vehicle is moving, wich it almost always is or should be, im not gona hit anything, especialy with missiles |

The 'nerf' back a few builds ago where they cut the splash radius didn't change the fact that they had hilariously good damage. It's trickier to hit people now but a direct hit can OHK pretty much any suit, and splash does some pretty hefty damage too. They are pretty amazing for AV work as well.
Railguns are sort of in the same boat, but the aiming woes are really apparent here. If you can actually hit anything directly, you can OHK any suit. Splash is basically impossible because the radius is less than a single step as far as the engine is concerned. You pretty much have to hit them between the feet to splash them with a small rail. Broken modifier against vehicles makes them AP only, when they should be amazing at AV given their direct damage
Small blasters are basically souped up ARs, pretty awesome for dogfights in assault dropships but for the most part being in small blaster optimal range puts you in AV nade range. That makes me kind of sadface but I like the idea of range difference in weapon types. These would be in a really nice place if railguns weren't a nightmare to use :P
my problem for blasters is they are too acurate to really land hits on someone while your in a moving vehicle, theres a reason no one uses LAVs to drive around and kill with the turrets successfully, and the rockets atleast for me go whatever direction they feel like as soon as the vehicle moves |

It's not only far more effective, it's also far more fun.
yea and thats a problem, the big super advanced turret on top of the car is no where near as useful as the front bumper |
