If you are actively using the flaylock your gungame must be very crap and appearently you have to keep using OP weapons. The flaylock is the only sidearm in the game that is better then most of the primary weapons. This is not acceptable CCP. If you dont believe me go into a PC match and see how every 1 is running around with 2 flaylocks at the same time. This thing is even worse then contact grenades. Bring down the splash damage below massdriver lvl. The damn weapons is supposed to be a secondary not a "I WIN" button. Beside that the other secondarys are not worthwhile using simply because the flaylock exceeds in every situation. Since the flaylock is OP as hell ive barely see scrambler pistols or SMG's in competetive matches. My suggestions to "fix" it:
-lower the rate of fire down to breach scrambler pistol lvl -lower the SPLASH DAMAGE down to max 80-90HP -lower the blast radius on the proto to 1.5m -lower the amount of max ammunition that you can carry down to 9 (3 rounds in a clip+6 as spare) -keep the direct impact damage as it is now.

Then it would be crap without a direct impact and the scrambler pistol would still be better for direct impact and headshots. Imo the only OP flaylock is the prototype one, change the blast radius on all flaylocks except the breach one to 1.5 and it would be fine |

One of the easiest weapons in the game to dodge. Side step, side step, count 3 rounds, attack. Lather, rinse, repeat as necessary. |

Agreed It should have half of all of the stats of a MD so I support this and it's damage and AoE have seemed too large. but this makes every thing just right |

They do take some effort to aim and have pretty limited range and ammo, so it's not completely OP, but it's certainly more powerful than any other sidearm and does hold its own against Light class weapons. Also, on the belief that all other sidearms are hybrid or bullets, it further contributes to the imbalance against armor which is disheartening, especially since armor wearers are more vulnerable to its explosive, armor effective, payload thanks to their lowered speed.
Here's hoping for a laser pistol. |

It is too OP... however you always hear the same thing..
the std sucks balls, the adv is not bad, and pro is hella op... whats the difference? The splash radius.
What I think it needs: Low RoF slightly... around 15% Normalize splash radius to 1.5m for all tiers Low splash damage slightly as well.. around 10% or so. Increase the fitting costs to be appropriate with other sidearms.
Then lets see where the weapons stands. |

It's completely Op at the minute, however I believe a way to fix it is - splash damage = 100 and reload time is 4 or 5 seconds. I think this will prevent it from being used as a primary weapon. An alternative is same damage, but really low rof, or even 1 in a clip, like plasma launcher.
Anyone who says its not completely Op is deluded. |

Gun game? i thought this was war? i will continue to use the flaylock and any other smart weapon until they turn into trash. skill is for the brain dead. smart soldiers do what it takes to win. I will never change my stance on that! |

Cut the splash radius and it will be ok, then maybe I wont get 43 assists in a match having my kills stolen by dudes spamming flaylock rounds at peoples feet after I do all the work cutting their health down |

Dude are u insane? 80 90 damage dude get real! My proficiency damage is up reloads up an max clip an ya I sometimes run two wit damage mods , two of em so when all that hits you even when they do what u ask an u die you still gonna cry? Ya mad dudes are using them but that's cuz it shoots straight! It's a ROCKET! It not a grenade lobber like MD, which btw had its splash changed to 4m back in may an the devs didn't even know someone changed it. Plus my scout speed. An hit box got thors friggen nerf hammer so the 12 mill I used just got tossed in the trash useless speed, shotty an knives, so I maxed that faylock just to stand a chance against cal protos with proficiency 5 an dam mods on a tac Had no choice. Ya it sucks everyone s sporting faylock or md, but a month ago it was ar so since guys like me had all sp ruined on this build don't complain, u don't have one use that awesome gun game an shoot us from across the map with ur rangless rife! |

Man you fighting some scrub guys with Flaylocks, no one aims for a direct hit it's all aim near the feet... preferably while jumping. Side stepping does little to escape the splash
Anything in close to medium range gets mowed down if the user is not stupid. The damage of the weapon is fine, it's just the high splash damage in comparison plus the splash radius, and a high ROF all rolled into one.

So quote I'm listening. I agree it suck everybody got a faylock but when ccp wreaks ur sp investment , whatcha gonna do? Buy the most effective weapon an make it proficiency ASAP right? Bet you got a AR maxed out right? So when ar was the most popular effective weapon I'm sure you road that horse right away no? So now others found something better before you did an proficiency upped that with dam mods an now ur mad? Dude I speked full scout, 12 million sp, biotics, profile damp, shields, kinetics, proficiency knives an sg, an ur crying bout a faylock? My entire time playing this game got NERFED! Your preaching to the choir bro , in the past week I had to get a AR assut basic suit an up a long range side arm ( fayloock) So don't go crying when I got 12 million sp an have to run basic everything an start over after playing for 6 months of worthless sp! Don't make a thread, get a faylock or use your amazing cod gun game! This is dust brother, roll with the punches cuz I'm the last guy your whinnings gonna impress! It's dudes like you complaining about scout speed, movement, jumping, sg, knova knives that made this faylock a issue So be proud, you changed the game now you want it back? Use ur gun game bro!^^^^^ |

the op argument will never end until there is simply one suit and one weapon anyone can buy. Then it will be "oh someone must have a modded controller, someone is using kb and m. neverending...

The core flaylock is like any other noob tube.... in the hands of the bad-average player it's balanced, in the hands of a top % player it's an unstoppable killing machine. I have a 3 million SP toon with a 7 k/d using this weapon, dominating everything in my path. After a day I was able to learn the curve well enough to use it at it's max range, and engage people on higher ground. I three shot everyone except for heavies... which take 4 shots. Then you take them into PC matches where often you get 3-4 players in either minmitar assault suits or scout suits running in pairs absolutely wrecking anything that appears in front of them in cities. And lastly this weapon is amazingly accurate at it's max range, easily able to destroy objective hackers because they cannot strafe out of the splash damage. All of this and I havn't gotten to the point that it has the lowest CPU/PG cost of any weapon in the game.
Seems balanced. |

I think the splash damage is the main niche of this sidearm, personally I think they should
Reduce splash damage to below 100 Keep direct damage as is Increase the base ammo to 5 and max ammo to 20. Standard radius needs to be buffed up to 1.5, adv to 1.7, and proto can stay at 2.0 Fire rate can stay the same Effective range can stay the same, lets not forget it has the optimal range of the scrambler pistol without damage fallout, it does max damage at its max range. Reload needs to be increased to be between scrambler pistol and SMG, currently Flaylock reloads just as fast as a scrambler pistol, if not, faster Reloading while jumping needs to be removed...this applies to all weapons, not just flaylock. How CCP thinks running and reloading cant happen while jumping and reloading is doable, is beyond me The breach variant can have a higher direct damage of around 300, splash damage of around 150, smaller splash radius, and reduced base ammo of 3 with a max of 15 Fitting requirement needs to be more in line with the other sidearms
Flaylock will be comparable to other sidearms and have the highest "Average" damage potential. Will give up RoF and ammo capacity for splash damage capabilities that the other sidearms dont have. There a BALANCED sidearm. That wasnt so hard now was it CCP? |

Like I said my whole class all my weapons are now garbage, an not once have I made the over powered post, it's like this , I rok the advanced faylock cuz it's cheap but my proficiency is up an operation is at five plus dam mods so I can fit two faylocks an two enhanced dam mods at the price of a core faylock, even if there was a militia faylock mine would kik a55! That s like a proficiency 5 ar wit dam mods usin militia ar! Next thing you kno the original poster gonna say militia ar is overpowered LMFAO! Think about what a dude has on his fit an skills in before you complain, right ......? RIGHT! |
