100% true OP.
I run gallente with a good chunk of armor, my bad I guess because other than the SR shield has an easy ride on this game, my main concern with the flaylock is that it is designed to **** armor uses up. The gun in all aspects of its design is a caldari fan/CCP's wet dream, other than that, its atrocious, thoughtless.
Peoples excuses come in line of learn to jump sideways, unpredictable patterns, which is fine but...i jump 1/4" off the ground and it uses all my stamina(exaggeration**). Others say, not easy to use...LIE. I would like to see a fluxlock pistol released, with damage to shield and armor reversed, and then watch the walls of every forum section light up with calamari scum. |

I agree that armor is the problem, but I don't think the flaylock itself is OP. I'm now scared that shield tankers will start screaming my scrambler rifle is OP because it does high shield damage, but ignore the fact that it does low armor damage. I use an Amarr logi suit. Did some calculations. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=90366&find=unreadKAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf wrote:*SNIP*
I was expecting it to come out OP, and even started typing ideas on a reasonable nerf, but I was surprised by the results.
That all very well but the scrambler pistol HAS to hit, the flaylock just has to come close.
meaning, in a little gun fight, say the scramble misses 2 shots, lands 3, we have 264 damage done, at the same ratio(flaylock misses one, no splash either, lands 2) of the flay does 479.6, even close misses would land 429.
So DPS is great n all but its based around each shot hiting, this aint the case in reality |

Another thing people fail to realize on the forums, It's fine for us proto people to think that 240 per shot aint much. Remember we're also trying to create a game where new players can somewhat merge in with the 10miliion+ SP club, people who that insta die from these things.
between this and the LAV's, I think it can make new players just go elsewhere. |
