1.2 - 35% Damage output reduction

[Niconogood]

Yes, 10% flat out damage reduction on grav round + increasing casting time from 1,5 to 2 seconds equals a 35% damage reduction. And we STILL have to spam this ****** ability in order to set up for instacasts and trigger full auto.

 

Also, the longer casttime on the ability WE STILL ARE FORCED TO SPAM makes us even more prone to interrupts and pushbacks than we already are, which gimps our damageoutput een further.

 

How can this be justified? Especially when they also nerf the only semiviable build we have atm (medic) into unplayability.

Read the patch notes more carefully.

You must be high on rage if you missed the bit where Fluted Barrel lowers it back to 1.5 seconds.

 

In other words.

 

It costs the same and takes the same time to cast, they just screwed around with what you got it all with.

Stop making the same idiotic posts everywhere and get a clue. Go read the patch notes again as a poster before me suggested.

Bad math is bad. Besides, I'm far more frustrated with what the changes will mean to ammo consumption. Removing the ammo reduction to Charged Bolts and Grav Round hits every Commando, no matter what their spec. This class didn't need their power consumption increased. :/

Hi everyone,

 

We've closed this thread as we have a consolidated discussion for this here:

 

So for gunnery, they want to encourage a "more active rotation"

 

Please continue your discussion at the above link. Thanks!
