Are you aware of the hotfix the team implemented over the weekend? They will continue to review the data and conversations we ping their way here.

Change to Disruptor Rounds Hopup

Reduced the shield damage multiplier from 2.26 to 1.7. It's a minor tweak while we evaluate the full weapon meta next week.

@EA_Blueberry So decrease the damage on it. Under no circumstance should I use a Alternator over an R-99 R-301 considering the options.

Well there is still a huge risk of carrying an Alternator without ever acquiring the attachment. I'll take the R-99 and R-301 over the attachmentless-Alternator every day.

@EA_Blueberry The hop-up shouldn't be adding a multiplier, frankly. It should add a flat amount of damage, like 3-4 damage a hit. Transforming it to 30+ hit a hit is ludicrous.
