167 - 208.75 per shot depending on their proficiency level, assuming pro 5, that's 626.25... for 3 direct hits. There's no way you were brought down to "almost nothing" by splash damage, unless you let them get 5+ rockets off 
This is the story you're going with?
Just be glad you're not an armor tanker  |

171 - 4 = 167
You're clearly imagining things. |

Also: Damage mods.
Also: damage mods = no shields
So if they were using dmg mods, then they either had no tank or were using lolarmor
Have you ever heard the term glass cannon? You can kill them as easily as they can kill you y'know. |

Lets do more math.
167(Base shield damage) x 1.25(pro) x 1.30( 3 dmg mods... sort of) = 271.375
Now, if your using an armor suit and/or scout, then... sucks to be you  ,but your suits base shields should still be enough to protect you from a 1-HKO, will it leave you pretty much dead? Yup, but you said 1-shot, not 2 shot
So no, a flaylock will never 1 shot you... ever. Unless you're a scout |

I didn't deny that it was OP, just that you're making **** up. I might be biased, but that doesn't change the numbers
So tell us, how many hits did they land on you? |

Also, lets just ignore the fact that the OP flaylock failed to kill you thanks to your shields.
OP Weapon < Shields .... H'mmm, Could shields possibly be OP as well, even more than the flay? Now there's some food for thought |

DJINN leukoplast wrote:would 670 armor have been taken out by a flay magazine?
Yes, yes it would have.
167 is only what it does shields... armor isn't so lucky.
Edit: I was joking about shields being OP though BTW |

Your experience is biased, and wrong
Again...
167 is damage for a direct shot, DIRECT, anything higher than that involves proficiency, mods, or armor, which would pretty much get 1-shotted. |

Yes, yes it does, accurate information is the difference between a reasonable changes and.... ehh, CCP's going to break it anyway cause they suck at balance, but that's besides the point
You really want to make changes based on word of mouth?
There is no question that Flaylock could use some changes/nerfs, the issue is how drastic do they need to be so as to not make it completely useless, which seems to be what most people want

Right now they just aim in the general direction of somebody from halfway across the map and get a direct hit. BS. Make an alt, skill FG and record this. I did use forgegun in this build. Have you? No, you just think you know how it works. Been killed by forge noobs, don't need to spec to know their hitbox is too big. Forge players should have to aim like the rest of us (well except flaylock and MD players), not point in general direction, click, then win.
And this is why I don't trust personal "experience"
As you can see, the OP doesn't know squat about how weapons actually work, he just likes to think he does. I'm not inclined to listen to guy whose only evidence for his claims is "because I told you so"
FG hit box is too big, why? Because it killed him? |

So I will play your little game...What do you think of gaylocks?
Quote:Lower it's RoF (somewhere between what it is now and the MD's, it's way too easy to spam these things
-Increase reload time a little
-Lower Splash damage 15-20%
-Increase direct hits by 10-15%, they aren't rewarding enough ATM in my oppinion
- Slightly increase damage against shields, lower damage against armor as well 80%:120%?
Or...
- Flatten their Splash radius...es? 1.25 for STD, 1.50 for ADV, 1.75 for PRO |
