Akmagnus - The Soma Of Secondaries [Nevermind]

[notionphil]

EDIT - ninja'd by DE. Akmagnus "fixed" a mere 1h after release.

 

Looks like we're back to the old days of taking a weapon, adding some large % to all of the good parts (dmg, fire rate), and calling it a new weapon.

 

This thing is basically a Magnus (8K DPS) with 2x damage and better fire rate(?!?) and clip size(....) so I'm pretty sure we have a new reigning DPS champ for secondary weapons (that fire more than 10 feet).

 

So what are we at 18k DPS? 20k? Where's Volt_Cruelerz when you need him.

 

And the best part is it will rule both one-shot-damage & DPS. Handy, for when you want to have the absolutely best gun in slot, in every situation.

 

Well, at least DE will be giving away an affinity booster so we can all pay fealty to our new Secondary master.

DE just nerfed it.

DE just nerfed it.

 

*puts magnus back on desk as paperweight*

 

dammed if you do...

 

Ok so anyway, the secondary issue here is the glut of guns that do the same darned thing. Why use magnus when you have a lex? Status chance isn't significant enough to be the deciding factor.

 

Anyway, more fodder for the mastery pile.

Well, you were gonna call for a nerf, and now look at where we're at. Awesome.
