Forge Guns are total crap on the tall buildings. Tagging someone would require they sit still for a ridiculous amount of time.

The best structures are the table top in Line Harvest, Jawa like buildings, and that nutty gallente outpost you have to use a beacon or DS to get on. All of which can be tagged with Scrambler Rifles, sniper riffles, scoped ARs, or regular ARs too in many cases.

It really irks me that people using ARs can generally win in every other situation but soon as my FG is a threat it needs yet another nerf.

Also they are getting rebalanced with a likely range nerf since a damage nerf was semi dismissed. So in theory the Master Race FG snipers who are great at range will be neutralized.

CuuCH Crusher Commando Perkone Caldari State 161	Posted - 2013.07.29 02:41:00 - [2] - Quote It has higher damage because it is harder to use that the regular version. (can't hold a charge) You have to time the charge and aim just right to get the most out of it. Obviously you haven't played with the forge gun or you would know this. Why do people look at the stats and come here to complain without even trying it?

Marcos Vega WarRavens League of Infamy 15	Posted - 2013.07.29 04:35:00 - [11] - Quote The forge gun doesn't need a nerf lol. Stop using a basic lav and get something stronger. It takes me a few shots to take out a logi lav or a good tank. Also its a hard weapon to use seeing as there is no zoom and there is a blue glow at the end of the gun while charging.

DUST Fiend OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 5548	Posted - 2013.07.29 05:59:00 - [15] - Quote Ishukone is so godly, I know...I kill all the things with mine. I'm not sure why the Assault has more base damage than the normal one, considering its RoF. Something needs to happen with forge guns, they kind of ruin vehicle play, and are pretty damn good anti infantry weapons too.

The effect on snipers is more interesting. Now red dots will be harder to detect and blue dot snipers who do over-watch won't be able to spot roving squads for the team thereby becoming even more useless.
shaman oga Nexus Balusa Horizon DARKSTAR ARMY 362	Posted - 2013.07.29 08:38:00 - [23] - Quote i've tried it, it's not so difficult to use, you can snipe infantry, tanks, derpships, LAVs are tricky, it should have 1 less bullet per clip.

Two-shot turrets without maxed skills or mods, blap infantry on level or elevated ground, and even perform AV Duties at the VERY annoying cost of not being able to hold my charge. That is what makes it difficult to use.

The breach is highly under used IMO, it really is the ultimate LAV and Dropship hunting weapon for me, most cars and good dropship pilots get the fark outta dodge when you hit em once with the assault FG so doing massive damage on the initial hit is really good plus not being able to move whilst charging is hardly a detriment when you have a good spot. Really does put the hurt on those stupid cars though, 3000+ dmg a shot on the wiyrkomi can one shot alot of the weaker logi LAVs.

Seriously so tired of people asking to nerf this nerf that. It's really getting annoying. Don't like being killed by a forge gun? Don't stand still like a noob. Don't want to lose your drop ship. Stop camping around the same area. Seriously you are pathetic for saying the forge needs a nerf. And it's not hard taking out a forge gunner. Snipe them? Stop crying when things take you out of your fking comfort zone. Please ccp don't touch the forge gun just because a couple of idiots stay still after one shot from a forge and expect the forge gunner to magically go away

Assualt Forge guns can destroy well fit dropships in 2 shots, far too easily. And snipe the forge gunner? Yeah right, he'll just go back and hide on top of his building. You would need several snipers to actually kill them.
