So, how bout that minmatar Long Gun?
Minmatar Artillery Rifle: The bastard offspring of a flaylock and a sniper rifle
Comparisons are to the current Caldari rifle.
It can fire out to 300 meters, time and drop need to be accounted for, Bolt action. deals more damage than a sniper rifle, with a small explosion(.5 meters at standard, 1.0 at proto) it does have standard cross hairs, but they are WILDLY inaccurate on the move, basicaly, if you want to quickly get into the fight, you'll need to stop to shoot anyone along the way. |

This sounds cool, but I'm not sure about it doing more damage and having splash damage. That might work due to the increased difficulty because of the ballistics, I'm just not sure about that part.

Was going with explosive because of the minmatar's love of explosions, kinda iffy on that personally. could just fire a really heavy round that punches through the target then(they do also favor simply using really big bullets from long ranges) instead of an explosive tipped one?(still high damage, drop, time, and such, just not explody part) |

Explosive part is fine IMHO, the extra damage is what I'm not sure about. |

Basically, it's harder to use(drop/time/onlly good out to 300 as opposed to the regular rifle's 600 meters), slower to fire(bolt action) and is quite a bit louder(minmatar use actual bullets, not plasma or anything that fancy, and bullets are loud) and therefore should do more damage to warrant these drawbacks, though remember that minmatar weapons are crap against shields as well and just about everyone shield tanks(even armor tankers have quite a bit of shields in some cases). |
