Reduce splash to 60 on proto and rounds in clip to 2 in proto and we have a decent sidearm that requires skill to use BC that little splash won't mean jack to even an adv armor tank.
Now it is useless and people wasted about a month of their time on it. Don't get me wrong, it was OP, but no need to slaughter it with the nerf hammer in front of its family.
Well...we'll just add it to the list of bad things:
-lolcannon
-derpship
-laser pointer
+flaylock
(I wanted to put tanks on there but I'll wait until 1.4 when armor reps get "balanced" for that one)
Look, the only reason to even complain about this nerf is if you were relying on this weapon as your primary, which is exactly what they're seeking to prevent.
It's a sidearm, and now it has stats like a sidearm. |

What if they increased PG and CPU then made it a heavy weapon? |

Then it'd be crappy, because it'd be a three-shot weapon and people would just run around you while you tried to attack them. |

If you can still kill people with a weapon, and it fills out a defined role, than only in an extreme case would I call it a "nerf" and not a "balance". Post Uprising the Mass drivers blast radius was nerfed and the Laser rifles range was nerfed. The laser rifles strength came from its effectiveness at long ranges, without that it was very UP. The mass driver is a terror weapon with a blast radius large enough to scare people. With no blast radius, you can't effectively suppress a large group or get someone out of a corner.
The flaylock was OP, it was too effective in too many situations. It took down shields and armor easily, allowed faster movement, fired quickly, and didn't require precise aiming. On top of that it had a low fitting cost and could be dual equipped on any non logi suit. The recent balance tightens it to a sidearm role as was intended, deadly when used accurately, but not meant to be the first choice.
Now before someone complains about the AR being good in every situation, it is, but there are situations where another weapon will excel at it. The ARs popularity comes more from it's flexibility than its killing power. It will still get outmatched by a shotgun at close range, and a LR at long range. It also isn't as effective at tearing down armor as the SMG, HMG, and MD. The AR also has the advantage of being one of the easiest weapons to understand as well as being the most prevalent in the industry. |
