Buzlok - Innovative Design Review

[(PSN)VoiD_Glitch]

So, introduced in 14.7.0 was one of three weapons, the Buzlok.

This weapons homes in on targets no matter what angle you are at, degree you are pointing at, or if you are even trying to kill them or not, I do not think the stats are correct and the utility definitely is not. This may be a rant but I am trying to get my word out.

Accuracy: 13.3? Are you serious DE? It is not even possible for this variable to be viable in the creation of a HOMING weapon.

Damage: Damage is fairly proportional.

Crowd Control: Don't even think about it. You have no control over where your bullets go whatsoever and that basically is the nerf part of this gun. Imagine fighting Phorid with a bunch of Infested around or imagine fighting strong enemies on ODD. The point is you won't win, this is good for Solo Play.

Latron Variation or This? I would choose the Latron, more crit chances, damage, fire rate (I believe).

Best Warframes with this?

Excalibur - Radial Blind then merk them.

Rhino - You won't die anyway.

Mag - Pull them or something to get more shots with this in.

Vauban / Frost - Snow Globe or Vauban's power should give you enough time to dish out your bullets.

-

That is all for now. Tell me what I should change.

I see you are a PS4 player... what version are you guys on again..?

 

Don't complain if you haven't gotten the chance to use it yet.

I am still on 14.1 but I was simply looking at the Warframe Profile for the weapon. Also, I already said it was a rant. No need to reiterate it.

Lore: This should of been a corpus weapon with corpus designs. Where on Earth did the Grinder had enough money to build a weapon like this. Only Corpus would really have the funds to build this and research the properties for it.

 

You seem to be misunderstanding something. No where was it ever stated that the Grineer are poor. They've been researching energy weapons for a LONG time now. Why shouldn't they have this?

I think you should chill out a little. Let people actually use it before you fly off the handle.

I apologize, I do not know as much as you about specific faction research as you. Sorry to have sounded bias.

Yeah I should. But he just got on my nerves.

Just took some incorrect and biased information out.

And they say I'm cyncial for saying the community is too trigger happy with nerfing.

You haven't even tried the weapon, and you are already making a claim it is overpowered.

 

You can talk about the mechanics and things shown in the video, but do not claim anything to be over/underpowered until you have actually used it and have solid evidence as to why.

 

Thank you.

I kind of already recognized this.

I kind of already recognized this.

 And I thank you for rectifying it.

If I've read the wiki correctly, it's not indiscriminate homing. You have to hit something whilst zoomed in to mark them, then subsequent shots seek them. Not so useful on crowds, and if you hit the wrong target...
