I get killed in about .5 seconds by this thing while running in my MLT Dropsuit. It seriously needs to be nerfed! I mean c'mon seriously there's no way it should be able to kill a merc in MLT gear that quickly!
On a serious note, If CCP were to implement some kind of better matchmaking system I think it would drastically cut down on all of the nerf threads.
My suggestion is an SP Tier based system where you play in matches at or above your Tier Bracket of SP:
SP tiers: 500k - 2mil, MLT and Standard Gear 2mil - 4 mil Standard Gear 4mil - 6 mil Standard and Advanced Gear 6 mil - 8 mil Advanced Gear 8 mil - 10 mil Advanced and Proto Gear 10 mil and up Proto Gear only.
I wouldn't mind if players could willingly join a higher tier, but restrict higher tier players from going back to lower tiers and pubstomping. This would place all players into more competitive matches.
As for squads:
If you are in a squad you must play in the tier corresponding to the highest SP ranking player in the squad. Otherwise you would not be able to join the battle.
This matchmaking system would only apply to instant battles. If you fight in PC or FW be prepared.

Any AR can kill you in .5 if all shots hit you. You are just lucky the dude wasnt using a scrambler pistol. 1-2 head shots and you are done-zo. |

You shouldn't restrict the gear people can wear because they don't meet your SP requirements. I've got 7mil SP and I've got proto gear, NVM can only wear ADV gear what a waste. |

LOL you have been trolled!
I started the post that way to prove a point: a lot (probably the majority) of nerf threads stem from the fact that players with very low SP and low level gear may think a weapon is OP because they do not have core skills built up and are not equipped to defend against players with Proficiency lvl 5 using proto weapons; in turn the low level players come to the forums complaining that something is OP.
Meanwhile, a player who has their core skills built up and is running in better gear can give better feedback on gear comparable to their own level. |

It's only overpowered because the hipfire accuracy is too high. it should really have close to zero accuracy when hipfired.
I would also suggest lowering the ammo per magazine, upping the reload time, an ADS delay on par with the HMG or sniper rifle, and applying a hard refire time to prevent exploitation.
I don't know why I bother making reasonable suggestions when I know full well they're just going to nerf the thing into the ground and make it completely useless. |

Then fight in a higher bracket...or are you afraid you do not have the skill to take on players with a comparable amount of SP and comparable gear? |

If only it wasn't in the AR class. CCP will never balance an AR. They will only make them better and more OP. If it was in any other class it would have been nerfed like the other weapons in Dust. |

Yeah, skills and certain armor modules provide much more of an advantage than weapons. Weapon balance is something that is over-rated in these forums. Look at the difference in damage between militia and proto weapons, it isnt much. You dont gain THAT much from upgrading to a duvoulle at all.
Certain advantages are big though, upgrading the mass driver or forge to increase splash is huge, upgrading to the TAR or the Duvoule TAR for added range is huge. But the damage? Its relatively negliable. In a lot of cases it doesnt even change the time to kill at all.
Now, being able to increase tank, or speed, or reduce kick etc all actually make a much bigger impact then doing 5-10% more damage since most guns kill very quickly if your shots land. |

Yes exactly! This is where the SP Tiers and Gear restrictions come into play.
If I have only 2 mil SP i do not have the same core skills or gear someone with 5 mil SP, placing me at a significant disadvantage.
If I have 5 mil SP I may have an advantage in core skills, but not gear. I could, however, compete with someone who also has 5 mil SP with an advantage in Gear, but not core skills.
If I have 5 mil SP I may have an advantage in either core skills, or Gear whereas a player with 10 mil SP likely has all core skills maxed out and using Proto gear putting me with only 5 mil SP at a significant disadvantage. |

Ok and you'll still get fisted. Caldari assault TAR combo and your getting murdered 9/10
The TAR has NO DRAWBACK, and is the only gun doesn't. Every gun has something it just can't do or a disadvantage eg overheating, poor range, bad CQC, small clip. The TAR has none and rather than being avg at all it's outperforms everygun in every situation. |

I'm sorry that you feel that way. Why not try it out yourself? If it is so OP why are you not using it? The kick from it at base level skills to use it is still significant and the supporting skills that can be trained up to level 5 also give the weapon a good advantage over a standard assault rifle but if you play a few matches where everyone seems to be using scrambler rifles and hitting people at the same ranges of a TAC you will see it is by far not OP. It could also use a bit more range on it as the scope can pick people out at a good distance but often if you are trying to hit them the red dot will not show up until they are already hitting you. This is because there are now quite a few people using scrambler rifles the way they were using the TAR. It has a much higher ROF and can very quickly get the best of most TAR users from outside their range. |

It's a well known fact that the TARs RoF is far too high, especially when combined with a mouse or modded controller.
Expect this weapon to be brought back in line within the month. |

It's because, although you are all trash players who should probably just delete dust from your PS3 before you chain it to your car and drag it through the street, we still want the illusion that the game is fun and competitive for everyone before we take everything you hold dear and ruin the experience for you. |

No. I refuse...
Ok, I did. and you're sort of right but sort of wrong. The tac rifle is supposed to be a sniper/AR hybrid, not a high capacity pistol. It should have a unique place on the battle field that caters to a certain playstyle and you do that by keeping the thing that makes it great, Long range/high damage, and getting rid of everything else.

I use the TAR. It has no drawbacks, It's OP and no other weapon comes close. Every other weapon is simply worse. |

I would agree when it is used against players of a comparable SP and Gear level.
The problem I'm noticing is that when these higher tier weapons are used against lower tier players, the lower tier players feel like they are OP and need to be nerfed because they are not equipped with the core skills and the gear to defend against/counter the higher tier players. |

Maybe you shouldn't have used the most obviously OP weapon currently in the game as your example, then. I can OHK militia suits with my Flaylock, but there aren't a lot of 'ZOMG Flaylock is OP' threads because those deaths are a drop in the bucket by comparison. (It's not just that Tacs are OP; they are also crazy popular on the battlefield.) |
