Standard massdriver is best mass driver.
Go AR of go home.
The MD still isn't up to where it needs to be, but expect it to be nerfed next (after the flaylock) or possibly the FG. |

That's not the point. The point is the forum whine has already resumed, and will intensify dramatically once the flaylock is nerfed.
It isn't about what works and what doesn't, it's about the AR and what isn't.

Once you remove that players shields, then it is deadly; exactly as it has been designed to work. That's why it is not over powered like the flaylock is which can, and does, kill you in 1-2 hits (which aren't even direct hits...)
Only against scouts.
The Flaylock only hits shields for 70% damage. Also, the shotgun can do this - even to assaults.
Now granted, the Flaylock is a sidearm, but that's the only issue that I see with the Flaylock. You can be assured though, that even if the Flaylock was a light weapon, the forum whine would be the same, and we'd still be here, looking at an upcoming nerf to it.
