-Appa- Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) Well I know it's been sometime since the release of the Opticor, but I wanted to throw my own 2 pence into the equation. So first off, right off the bat it starts with decent stats, 500 base damage, 425 of which being puncture, which if you run 4x corrosive projections, is not as good as just having slash, but using the right elements will negate this. But then when you max the sh*t out of this weapon it's hits like a truck, and yes the fire rate is bad, but well once you get your hands on vile acceleration... You'll fall in love with this weapon. Okay okay, by know you probably think I'm all about stats. But n... The appearance of the Opticor is just... I can't even express my own opinion in words... It's just... Perfectly designed, and it doesn't stop their, they could of just put in the Lanka bullet projectiles, but no... DE, just blew my mind with the Beautiful trail it leaves behind. But one bad point I have to admit, is it does look like you've turned into a turtle when it's on your back... So just don't put it away... Let the enemy see your big gun... Anyway, the reason behind this thread was feedback on the Opticor, which is a tonne bias, but hey, it's an Amazing weapon, so Digital Extremes... Thank you Edited May 26, 2015 by Nemesis-Infinity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rapt0rman Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Also, holding it causes your left arm to bend in ways it's definitely not supposed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N7-CommanderShepard Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 its good but tonkor beats its damage easy at super high levels lvl 100+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7grims Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) Still have the opticor in my inventory, awaiting to either put a patato and formas, or waiting to delete it. 1 - I'm afraid of the usual, random nerf or change that would makes it not worth (im glad i didnt invest on the synoid) 2 - charge and immediate fire mechanic, trows me off of liking this weapon 3 - its look so sweet, all that swag makes me love it, wanna make babies with it 4 - idk if ill like it better then my amazing bows, which I can charge and shoot at will so undecided yet :P Edited May 26, 2015 by 7grims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgax Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) Whenever i use it reminds of Xcom Enemy Within, the mech units have similar rail guns (it is so satisfying watching melting aliens). Too bad i'm too clumsy to use it's charge mechanic in warframe. Edited May 26, 2015 by Morgax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you also got to take into account the ammo economy, it's so efficient ;) But idk, if you got a massive load, you always have to charge before you shoot ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh you can mod it any way you want but yes okay there is a best burst damage build and a best sustained damage build, but here's my build http://tinyurl.com/Opticor ~snip~ That is so brillaint... so thats gonna be our new syandana? :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluelitHalo Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) Leveled the Opticor just for mastery here. While I can understand that its insane damage per hit and hulking aesthetics mesmerize people, the thing is so dang clunky to use for my taste. I think the main problem is the delay after the shot. That being said, I'd much rather use the Penta for my Launcher needs. At least its slow fire rate can be compensated by firing above a crowd and making those juicy headshots.

I wouldn't really call the Opticor a launcher. It's kind of similar to say, sniper rifle actually. a incredibly heavy hitting, "f-this-place-in-particular" type with some AoE damage.
