Tac AR does feel pretty good! Wondering what other changes they sneaked in?
On to Schwarma!
Played a match Tankination to test out the new swarms. Got lucky; opposing side included a squad of Azteca. Lots and lots of vehicles; few ground troops; great climate for testing swarms. Roughly 9-10 distinct vehicle engagements.
The speed change is noticeable; the change in tracking imperceptible (at least at first glance).
Succeeded in placing 3 consecutive volleys into moving LAV, Viper and Python. Presumably caught off guard, the Python promptly activated shield hardeners and zipped away. Pre-Delta, a similar scenario would've involved the Python outrunning or out-maneuvering volley 2 and volley 3. From my rooftop vantage today, volleys 1, 2 and 3 each appeared to connect. This leads to me believe that if I'd sync'd strikes with a partner, the Python would've very likely crashed. In my book, this is a clear improvement.
Anyone else try these out?

The rifle updates are what I want. Like ScR / TacAR RoF changed to 600 TacAR dispersion/kick seems better too
In short the changes that were talked about but not listed on final numbers. [edit] make a post for each change for more likes, lol |

Compact nanohive used to give me packs of +7 Charge Sniper Rifle ammo per tick.. Now it's 5. And the thing ran out a lot sooner than it should have.
What unsung change was made that now causes nanohives to give sniper rifles less ammo?
That, coupled with the draconian reduction on the Charge SR's clip size AND total ammo carried, may be too much. I've only sniped one Dom match so far, had 11 kills (including 2 ADV sentinels, both times I missed the headshot the first time and scored a body shot, followed up by a headshot before their shields had charged to 50% or so - I'm satisfied with headshot performance). It was a smaller Dom map, so the range hasn't been an issue - yet. When I snipe Fracture Road Dom, I'll let you know how 400m feels.

God damn, that Bolt Pistol is sweet. The community better not over use it and ruin it on me.
The Ion pistol though? The Ion Pistol broke my heart. It's better than before, but when you put it up against the other sidearms it's a couple miles behind. Damned shame.

At the moment I'd try increasing base damage to 60-70, and the charge multiplier (anyone know what it is at the moment?) and see how it is after that.

Bolt pistol is really really good. Using it in place of my sniper rifle now. Only down side on it vs the tac sniper is range. Ion is more like a faster weaker ScP. Not bad but ok.

But the compact either had clusters reduced, or ammo is eating more nanites. Either way, the compact is yielding less than half of the ammo it did yesterday.

Delta thoughts:
Bolt pistol is amazing and I love everything about it. The clip size nerf is a bummer but it is more than worth it. I one shotted an assault at AR range earlier. 10/10.
Ion pistol still sucks imo, but people are bound to disagree with me. Still, DEFINITELY more usable than before. Overall a positive change, but it needs a little something something.
Assault scrambler feels the same, breach scrambler is a MONSTER if you can hit it. I went solo against almost an entire team and came out with 7+ kills before dying. They didn't see me more than 2 at a time, but still.
Magsec is way more usable but I don't care for it. Same goes for flaylock and PLC.
Breach SMG is overall way better, it's an excellent suppression tool with its high clip size. Assault SMG feels great and works well in its role.
Really liking the tactical sniper, went 8-3 with a minmatar scout on that inner city map with the giant mushroom building in the center, and I wasn't even trying that hard. It was like a heavy tac AR.
Speaking of which, I tried the tac ar. I haven't tried it in a while so I can't really comment, but I miss the old reticle we got for it :(
Overall, I adore this hotfix. Proto bolt pistols here I come.

That line was specific to Fine Rifles (not Sniper Rifles).
How do you like the new optics so far?

Quick Flaylock Note
The Breach has a minor issueGǪ. Damage is great direct hits however do not do enough meaningful damage relative to missile speed. Before you could get that second shot off relatively quickly from flight to next shot. Due to the missile speed increase the first shot lands sooner than you can get the second shot off, because the RoF was not increased.
Other than thatGǪ. loving the Flaylock changes, not over the top so it will still remain relatively below the radar (Thanks Bolt Pistol) but certainly more viable than before. had over ten fits that were broken with the PG increase to the FLGǪ After I put in the NK Ops only had to tweak two fits :D

If we reduced base damage to spare newbros from instagib, would headshots still hit hard enough against Heavies and heavy-like MedFrames?
Edit: Its worth mentioning that unlike the Breach ScP, the Bolt Pistol is largely ineffective from the hip or in CQC.

If I'm not mistaken, that line was specific to Fine Rifles (not Sniper Rifles). How do you like the new optics so far? Notice any difference in zoom strength? Optics on the charge are good, very fine point in the center, smaller than the pre-circle one. I like it, takes some getting used to.
Zoom I don't think is different for Charge - if it is, then it's not noticeable because of the range nerf... I'm not trying to look so far afield.

Oh yeah, that'll probably be a beast. I only used the low tier breach one and had a blast. The difference is, though, that I 2 shot suits from very far out. ;) It shocks me every time. Minmatar scouts can't take 1 hit. I 4 shot a minmatar heavy. The only thing I can't kill in 1 clip are the tanked out heavies, which is why I'm running novas + bolt from now on. The breach scrambler will probably be disgusting too though, just in a different range zone.

Yeah, range-wise I'm accomplishing with the Adv Bolt what I'd hoped to accomplish the MagSec :-)

So far I've got Ops 5 and 1 into all the skills in the next tier, but I hope to rectify that as I get more SP. Spent the last of my SP on it.

Okay, I just went 31-8 in skirmish with the NK/Bolt Pistol combo. I got most kills with the pistol, and it was just the standard variant.
Make no mistake, the bolt pistol is ludicrously strong.
