That's the skill chart tell me I'm wrong!

[Hey genius dumb dumb, now that you proved how smart you are that post was for the knob that said no weapon in the game takes a total 7 million sp to skill into fully that was the proof hence the skill chart not that anyone would fully but that was the point.!
Tha fact that you had to get all math god mod means you can't read and spend your time trying to prove people wrong all the time an probably live alone with 8 cats.
I never said to skill it all the way , I said to do so costs over 7 million an I think everyone knows that shyts a waste of time so tell me mister smarty pants do you feel like a genius all proud still ?
Or like a moron that didn't read?!

2. It's useless till level 5 = almost 7mill sp

Keep the splash as that is literally what separates it form the other pistols, otherwise it just becomes another pistol, but have the range cut down to 20 and have a long load time for the weapon, since we are indeed loading self propelled micro missile ammunition here. If need be cut the direct damage down by 30% and raise splash damage by a smaller amount, making it the crowd control weapon it is. The aspect of a larger radius that can hurt the player easier will give it a minimum and maximum range.

The way I see it, a three shot volley should be able to destroy all your armor if you get flanked by it. So a heavy with his shields blown should be able to be killed within that quick 3 shot volley (again when his shields are blown). This thing should suck against shields entirely but able to utilize splash to keep out of direct sight until shields are gone, thus utilizing splash as more of a skill mechanic rather than a lazy mechanic.

I'm sure I'm going to get flack for this, and I also want to remind people that sidearms should not equal suckage. But it should have a niche killing role, and in this case ***close range unshielded opponets***. That is the role that I see for this weapon, if you lack shields this thing should drop you in seconds if you are within 20 of your opponent

I said to reduce direct damage by 30% to make it below the other firearms and then have a higher splash damage. If you guys essentially neuter the splash to essentially make direct hits the only viable shot, then this pistol is no different than any other of the pistols (now and future) and we might as well not have it in the game if its going to function like an ordinary pistol.
