    Im not sure about slow effect but only heavy slows/stuns as you can visibly see it interrupt sprints; but i think this thread is useless and pointless as well since the flatline is good but not the best and the “best” is subjective to game styles; I prefer hemlock and rampage. Flatline is definitely more than reliable but doesnt need to be fixed or changed

    If not mistaken the intention was that heavy should slow you down the most while having the slowest ADS speed to balance that.

    I clearly am feeling the effect of being shot by Rampage - it is more insane than spitfire, not even talking about its power when it is charged up.

    Flatline... I guess I got used to it and being shot by it, no complaints there.

    Wingman - still annoying as F especially when people magically hit 3 shot knocks on me, not so much slow down effect and difference in ASD speed aka almost non-existing.

    Hemlock, 30-30 - least annoying.

    CAR - not sure if it actually slows you down if heavy ammo is used.

    I would actually suggest keeping CAR as is or significantly reduce DPS in combination with slowdown if heavy is used. Wingman should not have a slow-down effect whatsoever, it is already max annoying, Rampage actually might need a nerf damage-wise, rest can remain as is.

    Heavy ammo reduces speed just a tad more than say light ammo or energy. All guns ammo types have slow down effect heavy is just little more.

    @E9ine_AC except charged Rampage that just buries your feet first and then remaining bits and pieces after you are shot dead :D
