R-99 Melts
So have discovered since last patch the 99 is the gun that literally melts armor in seconds. Looked back at kills on me and using it myself.
I love the R99, but I dont see a need in nerfing it anymore - why?
It is not the strongest close range weapon, that is PK.
It is not the strongest medium ranged weapon, that is Wingman.
It is not the strongest long ranged weapon, that is G7 Scout.
Last season, it was the strongest in both medium and close ranged. And indeed it was too powerful.
And as people stated, never stand still and never strafe in the same direction when someone is aiming at you, move sporadically (and if you are reloading, face your head in another direction while moving in an non linear pattern). Since even the Mozambique will "melt" you if you do not have good movement. A good aim can only get you so far, movement however is the key in this game.
I just had a game where I had a devotion, purple shields and full health. Someone killed me with a 99 in a straight up fight so fast I barely pulled the trigger. This gun is BS. It needs a nerf.
