@DK9027 Not at the ranges I use single fire. Can only get one hit in before they duck, and it used to be almost G7 class with Anvil. Now G7 and Longbow, especially Longbow, are much better for those scenarios. 2 shots break that purple shield.
I'm sad they put L-star in the Skydrops, but it deals about twice the damage now. I haven't used one yet but I was killed by one, 35 damage per round. Did they really set it that high or was that person hacking? I didn't report them because either way I'd've died. Lousy connection and all. Plus I think it's actually set that high.
Will be fun to use if I can ever get one again.
Currently I use SMGs, Longbow, and Peacekeeper. Sometimes Mozambique, hardly Eva. Sometimes G7 or Triple Take.
Triple Take I find better no choke and used with Irons, makes good energy shotgun at 40 damage per hit. Or is that partial hit?
I hate the prowler, you only get 4 shots with the bloody thing (expending 20 ammo). I prefer the others as better chance to hit, even if it's lousy damage.
Ricocheting Rounds is something they have in Titanfall 2, but as a Sniper Mod. Mods also work differently in that game.
I don't know how in the world you could damage someone with a Medkit, or why you'd want to waste a 100% heal to attempt to, and probably miss, deal a bit a damage to an opponent?
I'm better as a sniper, as close quarters I lag out on half the time.
One shot every now and then, thus Anvil was epic for my playstyle.
It drew me to the 301 as I could swap between high damage sniping and moderate damage high auto firerate, all on ONE GUN.
Now I hardly use 301 because R99 and Alternator are basically like it, with faster firerates, bigger magazines, and the ability to use threat scopes.
A 2-4 threatscope would solve that drawback of using ARs, Marksmans, and LMGs.
As for weaopn Ideas, I have many.
--HMGs - slow movespeed and they overheat instead of having a magazine. They draw ammo from your backpack. Kinda like L-star, but for other ammo types. LikeLight and Heavy. Possibly Sniper, maybe shotgun.
--Another Pistol called Bolter that uses Heavy ammo
--More AutoPistols - rapid firerates and automatic but less damage
--More Burst Weapons, but none for Heavy (except pistol) as it already has Hemlock (Rifle) and Prowler (SMG). G7 and EVA might be classified as the light and Shotgun Rifle Burst weapon as they have Double Tap Trigger hopup (two-shot burst capability hopup)
--NEW Ammo type and weapon set: BEAM.. similar to energy but insanely weak, massive ammo capacities ad storages, and are consistent beams ... Rifle would have 200 mag, 1 dmg, 25+ RPS,
-------Ammo stacks in pallets of 3 at 200 per pallet, assault carry an extra pellet per stack making 800 instead of 600 per stack
--Flamethrower and Fuel would be awesome, and it might use Energy or Beam ammo, Volt-ish Firerate, Eva Cone, Thermite DPS and/or Firerate
-----Use Thermite as ammo? I doubt that'll work well....
