I am very sick and tired of people wanting to nerf the Flaylock. Why? Because I don't want it to end up on the useless weapons pile. A pile consisting of the MD, LR and Plasma Cannon.

I have said many a times that the MD < the Flaylock. That does not mean that the Flaylock needs to be nerfed. It means the MD needs to be buffed.

Why was every weapon besides the AR severely nerfed in Uprising? Better yet, why do people want to KEEP nerfing them? Honestly it leaves me in disarray. At the end of the day, we should buff up all the weapons. Not nerf them, not even the AR.

Yeah because a sidearm being used as a primary is not wrong, and especially when it has the lowest fitting requirements of all the sidearms...

I've never seen a logi with it, who's using them as primaries?

Noobs don't count, it being a noob tube was a design choice.

AR>>> Flaylock, unless you can't aim the AR of course
Hell, in hands of a skilled player Scrambler pistol >> Flaylock.

You don't play the game a lot do you?
Also anybody that doesn't say it's a little OP is usually Caldari/Min. spec'd.

Lol we were playing earlier against a group of guys and were beating them by 20 and than they all brought out their core flaylocks and almost nearly took the game from us. Core GODlock pistol FTW! Even in PCs now a days they are getting used a lot more frequently by the "best" players in this game.

I like when they run them as primary :)

No offense to you Sloth but you have a awful LOT to say and ALWAYS throw your two cents in and you don't even play Dust, lmfao!

What? It's safer in the MCC. Plus, this way I'm unaffected by any changes to balance
Nerf the Flaylock, I'll just use my AFK SP to spec into proto SMGs

Please do, they aren't as effective as FPs. Even the Cala's isn't.

My STD Syn is almost as good my Core Flaylock with prof 3.... yeah, I'm sure the Proto version is inferior, yup...

Against an armor suit, it most definitely is.

Cala's is officer, though, not proto.

educe the splash to that of the standard variant

My personal experience with both guns makes me not believe you.

Advanced maybe, but STD? I'd rather use Nova Knives, that would render it completely useless, why even have splash damage?

How lucky is that?

Use nova knives then, they do more damage, and have 1m range.

It shouldn't have splash larger then people can jump. Bunny hopping should be a valid counter to the weapon, maybe people will begin to aim for the body.

That is exactly what the breach variant does, it even has more direct damage.

Do you at least plan to increase damage to compensate for that ridiculous splash range nerf? If not, then like I said, worthless, because STD flaylock = Worthless.

It's not worthless, it will still be a great sidearm choice. Your relative worthiness is based off of a sidearm people are building suits around...

It's not worthless, it will still be a great sidearm choice.

At 250 for a direct shot with a rather slow projectile, It would be easier to spam R1 on a scrambler pistol, don't even have to go for head shots. The fact that you think this is a reasonable nerf tells me you've never touched the STD variant in your life.

"great side arm choice"

Anyway, since I think you're actually serious about this, I'm just going to stop.

It's a sidearm broski, it outperforms it's equivalent in the light weapon category. .

How can any of that make sense to you

people shoot the ground as fast as they can and it's 2 PG yet there are 5 levels of fitting optimization

It could use a ROF and/or Reload time change so that people have to be more carefull with their shots instead of spamming R1, and it definitely needs higher fitting requirements, but any changes to splash or damage would render it worthless. You need proof? STD version

Amarr, everything you know is a lie.
