Arc?

Are we talking about the flaylock, or a mass driver?

I got killed twice by Flaylocks in the past 3 days... I really don't understand why you guys are complaining about it...

lol, so you don't get killed by it, but you can tell the wielder is abusing it?

Pretentious much?

Well, which is it then, the range too far, the accuracy too high, the damage too high, the ROF too high, or the splash too high? I've seen all of these posted in the last few days with no actual facts to back any of it up.

I don't see every other Merc (or even half that) running around with any Flaylock. Until I do, it isn't a problem, merely a perceived one.

These aren't facts. I'm willing to entertain that this weapon is a problem. Show some killfeeds, let's get some statistics on it. Otherwise, it's just whining.

If you are getting hit at range by an FP it is your fault though. You can dodge those.

As a heavy maybe you need to carry a pistol if the flaylock is becoming an issue.

Also heavies probably need a mid range weapon to deal with some of these issues.

High skill ceiling? Are you serious? It takes the intelligence of a toddler to use that thing.

I swear every post I read from you its clear you've never used it, you have no idea what it does or how it works.

You've obviously never played in PC... hell im beginning to wonder if you've ever actually played a match in this game at all.

Well, get to it then. Let's see your killfeed with it.

You are right, but then again so doesn't the AR and SMG. For once CCP has gotten it right on the nose with what a weapon is supposed to be good at. The proto is pretty efficient but nowhere near a Duvolle while the lower versions are pretty crappy. Now there is something else that can kill, other than the standard weapon of choice, and I think it should be embraced rather than watered down to only be brought back to the stone age that is the AR.

Stop posting.

Snipers like me - I'm free lunch (Scout) but I go hunt them down on my next clone.

If a flaylock user rapid fires you from range and you dont see it then that is them working an advantage / you not being situationally aware. If you see the missiles coming you can dodge them - an ability you dont have with a sniper opponent.

If you are a heavy you have to understand that the flaylock was created to kill you so if you carry a heavy weapon and worry about it get trained up in a pistol. You can pick off FP users quicker if you are a good shot.

I empathized with you that CCP hasnt created a heavy mid range weapon.

Really dont know what else you want - a hug?

I have a couple questions for the people who think the core flaylock is a problem as I never see them in the matches I play

1. What ranges is the weapon actually good at? is it dropping people at 60+ meters or is it just able to go toe to toe with an AR?

2. are other weapons still able to compete or is this a Tac AR 2.0 where there is no reason to use anything else?

3. what would you suggest for balancing it? Just crying OP would make the flaylock get nerfed too hard like the LR.
