  1. And what other guns do you need to do that for?

     

    Sicarus and Grakata, and look how popular those are.

     

     

    An obnoxious mechanic is still obnoxious, no matter how much you dress it up or defend it.

    Then it's obvious you are not willing to do what is necessary to be good at those weapons. If you do not find a weapon that requires some getting used to fun, and you find enjoyment if doing high damage by simply holding down the left mouse button then these weapons are not for you.

    I personally had fun trying to figure out the burston. At first it was slow. I too was getting frustrated not killing things as fast as I had wished. But once the flow of the gun came to me it was really good feeling finding out that this gun isn't as crappy as people say it is.

  2. Without succumbing to power-creep by giving it a 25% raw damage buff like the Braton, I'd be happy if they just changed the recoil so it happens AFTER the burst instead of during and reduced the time between bursts a bit so the recoil actually meant something to proper handling of the gun.

    Try pulling the mouse down as you fire to counteract the recoil.

  3. You're right. I bet it is the least weapon used in the entire game as well. Yes with good reason too. People follow the path of least resistance. If it takes skill to do top DPS most likely than not people will avoid it. I think this is a good thing. For the people who love the burston as is now they get to be those good player that aren't using guns like Hek, or Latron. Like I said; if the play style of the burston is not for you then it's not for you.

  4. I want there to be a good reason to use it. Don't tell me that it's a skill weapon when it's just in serious need of some loving. Don't try to justify its usage over other weapons, because I can burst with them too, far more accurately. LATRON is a skill weapon, too. Shot placement does matter, but the BURSTON has unnecessary recoil for what it is. Per-shot recoil is higher than BRATON and LATRON for no damn good reason.

    It's a skill weapon. Not the same kind as the Latron. Really if you want to love the burston so much take my advise and try to time your bursts better. I hear these people complaining they have to wait 3 seconds between each shot. They are firing it wrong. I can fire it every half second. Time your clicks.

  5. It doesn't provide any serious bonus to getting a critical shot, and it is entirely reliant on headshots, but its damage doesn't cut it. Using it skillfully just isn't rewarding.

    Then the burston isn't the gun for you. I see the burston as rewarding people who want to be skilled at a gun. If that's not your play style then leave it be.

  6. It's kind of weird for a bug to act as a "semi feature". Bugs usually just screw up the function of a feature.

    I'm certain that it's a bug because it only happens after an artifact alert. And it doesn't even change to the artifact that was rewarded from that alert. If it did change to the artifact that was rewarded from the alert then I might think it was a feature. But this is clearly not working as intended.
  7. Try timing your mouse clicks differently. There's a sweet spot on how regularly you can fire to get the optimum fire speed out of the burston. It's not very effective if you just keep spam clicking. Like I tell every one who asks about the burst weapons "Anyone who says the burst weapons sucks, suck at burst weapons." They are a skill weapon.

  8. Just gunna put this out there that I don't like this idea, but that's not what I want to discuss. What I want to ask is this;

    How would data masses work if one would only carry a rifle?

    How do you figure this would be more balanced?

    And with this system could you carry multiple melee weapons, and if so how would that fit in with the current melee system.

  9. Damn place holders. They aren’t as edible as potatoes.

     

    Thank you for clearing this up, I had read similar replies to other posts but wanted to explain myself correctly. Just to confirm (being a nub) a 'forma' (mentioned in your previous replies to similar topics) is not another word for place holder?

     

    I have seen forma mentioned but did not know what they were.

     

    I forget that Warframe is still Beta sometimes :D

     

    Kind regards,

    No forma is not code word for place holder. It's an item used to polarize weapons, or frames. It could also be used for construction of dojo rooms.

  10. its a place holder so enemies will shoot at the target also funfact its the tenka 9mm from dark sector :D

    It's a pretty sweet looking gun. I wouldn't mind having a Aktenka for my Warframe loadout.
  11. 3 times are the MAXIMUM required to max every mod on your weapon.

    Depends on the weapon, and the mods. My snipetron for example needs to be polarized 4 times adding up to 5 polarities inorder to have all mods maxed. Serration, split chamber, point strike, vital sense, hellfire, stormbringer, piercing hit, and cryo rounds. Three V polarities for Serration, split chamber, and point strike/vital sense then two - polarities for hellfire, and stormbringer will leave me with 1 point spare after they are all maxed.
