Brynslustafir Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) I was thinking something like 30%. That would at least give people a reason to use it over the Brakk. Trading some base damage for a gas proc on every shot seems fair to me. The way I see it, we already have enough raw damage secondaries. But we don't have nearly as many status-oriented(or as I like to call them, procinator) secondaries. Edited October 6, 2014 by Plasmaface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imaru Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I think the fact that it has innate tadiation damage is why not. Spraying a can of nyx at an entire group of enemies after stacking punch through on it would probably make it too powerfull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imaru Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I don't think it would be that bad.You're taking one of the best scaling abilities in the game and not only giving a slightly worse version of it to every frame but also giving it functionally unlimited ammo (semi auto guns don't use up all their ammo).

Cyborger1 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 30% is a bit too much, we already have a status chance shotgun pistol (AkBronco Prime) 15-20% would be more reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then reduce Detrons ammo. Whatever. Just make it worth using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prany Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Little buff to proc chance would be nice, but 30% waaaaaaaaay over the top. We have enough power creep as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brynslustafir Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 Ok, 30% might be a bit too much considering that it's an elemental weapon. How about 20%? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volume Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Even with 30%. Even with 50%. It wouldn't come close to the damage that Brakk puts out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nira Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I think 15-20% would be an ideal tweak without going overboard, when you factor in multi-shot for sidearms, not to mention the dual-stat element mods. Detron is one of my favourite weapons in the game, and statistically my most-used, but have long felt it needs a buff in this department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warriorrogue Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 You all seem to forget one of the shotgun problems. The proc rates are abysmal. That would need fixing before a change like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZxpferTH Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 where did de said they are gonna buff detron raw dmg?sorry but did i miss it or your assuming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealPandemonium Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Lol, Detron doesn't need a buff at all. It's a top-of-the-line weapon that is only eclipsed by THE BEST BUILD powercreep weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeAura Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) 28.33% is the most balanced for having multiple status chance builds for hand cannons. Edited October 8, 2014 by LukeAura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brynslustafir Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) where did de said they are gonna buff detron raw dmg? sorry but did i miss it or your assuming? DE never said anything, and I never said that they did. So I didn't assume anything. I'm just proposing a buff for a weapon that needs it.
