Tiberon. Something Needs To Be Done With This Weapon.

[srlhama]

Only way to make Tiberon really good now is using Ressonance, but even Flux Rifle is good with it.

And because status Flux Rifle is more viable than Tiberon.

And Burston Prime is the worst Prime weapon now, but again is a status sub machine gun, status is basic mandatory past high level, unless hard hiting slash weapons on 4CP teams, aka drakgoon.

Weapons besides shotguns have falloff?

I probably should have worded that better....

Perhaps the problem is armor scaling making everything irrelevant and not the weapons themselves?  We shouldn't need to use bandaid weapons (whether that means abusing critical headshots or just having really high base damage) to make things work at higher levels.

The Tiberon is a very good weapon for newer players, it does deliver a very good damage per shot if you aim for head shots, if you put a catalyst and some forma on it, it will carry you over the hole star map with ease and is extreme good for NM missions since it will drop everything instantly at any range. However the lack of crit or status will make it fall off in damage at 40 minutes into survival or 40 waves into defence a lot more then other weapons, since it just got good base damage and is very good at any range. I managed to pull off with mine all the times top damage in interception, defence or survival. It just doesn't scale well into late game, one the star map however it is a fantastic weapon for newer players, especially on maps where you need a lot of range and just snipe targets all over the map(corpus interception on the big map with lots of travel time between the points, killing everything on the map from just standing at A) , it does a brilliant job as burst fire rifle, delivering all 3 shots at extreme ranges right on spot.

How do you figure that?  Tiberon has higher base damage, but they have basically the same damage per magazine, BPrime reloads faster, and has 6 times higher status performance.

You already pointed it out, Tiberon already has significantly higher base damage, so once you add mods like serration and multishot it is in a league of it's own, also after you put shred on, Tiberons fire rate stops being an issue if it was already. Status is the only thing Burston prime has over Tiberon, and Tiberon isn't primed yet, so it's prime can only outperform it yet again.

We are talking about the possibility of a weapon be primed in like 1 year...

And 10% crit and 10% status will dont save this bad boy from stay coleting dust on the shelf.
