I know there are some threads about this but couldn't find any. Highest range of all light weapons and high damage. Laser has lower optimal range, just like in EVE. SR has much lower optimal as well. They are testing how this weapon works in actual combat.
Only thing this weapon is missing to be balanced is a small charge up spool time just like all the railgun technology weapons, with the exception of the sniper. This imo will force the player to hold the trigger for a little bit every time he needs to fire. No modded controller and no mouse clicking. Also 100/100 to shields/armor. And increase assault SR range to be higher than conventional AR CCP. |

Personally, once they have them all, I think they should consider removing the variations within each race's weapon and leave just the four types:
Gal - fast full auto
Cal - slow full auto
Min - 3 round burst
Am - single shot
I kind of assumed the variations of the Gallente AR are/were just placeholders for the racial weapons that weren't finished yet anyway.
I was looking up the ranges of the EVE turrets as to why the SR has lower optimal than the TAR and it all makes sense now. Breach AR has too low optimal to be a Caldari Gauss Rilfe. I think it'll be the TAR because it has much more optimal than the SR, like in EVE the railgun has more optimal than the pulse and even the beam laser, just like now in Dust.

I don't mind if they don't have overheat really. To be balanced the assault SR has to have more range because it's a pulse laser, and pulse lasers have more optimal range than blasters. That and the upcoming Gauss Rifle will hopefully balance everything. |

I think Minmatar will have a crazy ROF and less range than AR. |

It also have a very powerful charge shot." Caldari Pistol = Bolt Pistol "The bolt pistol is a giant desert eagle, it essentially puts a whole in anything that is in front of it."
Wha oh c'mon breach? That thing doesn't have any range!!!! Rail Rifle = miniature railgun good for mid to long range!!!!!
