Get rid of the Rampage!

I do enjoy playing this game, however, I am tired of people slapping a 3x on a Rampage and melting white shields with one clip from 200 + meters, 10 seconds into the game. It's a weapon that should e...

At the very least lower the spawn rate...I know having them both would be crazy but most weapon classes have atleast four options, the hand gun class being the exception. The L- star is a joke and the devotion is suspect minus attachments. Im only suggesting if the EA gods decide not to nerf the Rampage, another viable LMG option should be available.

The L-star is a joke... a bad one even. It is much worse when fully extended than it was when it was so bad that it was not used.
When I see someone shooting at me with an L-Star, it can now be completely ignored.

  @Donidon you're telling me a weapon that doesnt need to reloaded, has a good firerate, only get better with more attachments, has a large magazine capacity, is excellent in close-range dps and decent at mid range, has a large projectile so its hard to avoid and easy to get headshots with???
  
  if i see an lstar in someones hands i know i can expect an unrelenting wave of dps if im up close and should probably keep my distance so i dont get instantly lasered. you would you apprach someone holding a devo in CQC?? you wouldnt the same can be said for the lstar, i used to think it was junk until i started using it more, you're sleeping on it

    Yes maybe you should read the patch notes first after a patch and try things out first. Obviously you haven't. That's why it's pointless to talk to you about it.... what you write was true in Season 10, but not in Season 11 anymore.

I've played thousands of games and used a multitude of weapon and character combinations. The L-Star is not an end game weapon and the user would get merched by most weapons outside a close quarters situations. I know it wrecks when you're in a room against white shields but it has no mid to long range upside. I've found that most battles in ranked situations rarely result in a 3v3 L-Star showdown. I don't play battle royal games to drop hot, get two kills, and do it all over again 2 minutes later.

    @damsonwhufndthis Might be a difference in regions or systems? The Lstar is rarely used outside of close-range in my lobbies and I'm playing on the PS4 in the U.S.
    I've heard people say it's pretty beastly at range since it has no bullet drop off but nobody uses it that way possibly because of the ammo consumption? Maybe the size of the bullets make them easy to see and therefore avoid? Dunno since nobody uses it at range against me.
    Back on topic the Rampage is surprisingly better than the Spitfire. Another gun that doesn't need to reload until you drop your target and the low rate of fire/recoil typically leads to more shots landing. It's a popular choice for weaker players that lets them compete up to mid-range. Again this applies to the competition I see on PS4.
