sappinmahsentry Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) First, the MK-1 Braton, if you put stabilizer on it, its TTK is insane, which is a very, very bad thing. What should happen?Lower its PvP ROF to 5.5, this will lower its DPS to 195, however, to offset the DPS, make it have 50 accuracy and 40% less recoil. This will make it a begginer weapon nice for medium-long to long range, while the MK-1 Braton's older brother, the Braton/Braton prime, will be more of an all-rounder EDIT: Oh dear, I forgot to talk about the Strun Wraith! IMO The Strun Wraith is the most balanced PvP weapon right now, dealing a high DPS when inside its range but outside, it's worse than a secondary.

MattHarrigan Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 MK-1 Braton now has what? Around 290 dps. That's about as much as the Lex Prime. It stands to ask ourselves, do we really want all popular rifles, The Bratons, Latrons etc to have less dps than a secondary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is they said they won't change stats like recoil and fire rate. Imho the best way to help this would be totally removing Stabilizer.

It stands to ask ourselves, do we really want all popular rifles, The Bratons, Latrons etc to have less dps than a secondary? 2,1 firerate with 85 dmg makes 178,5 dps. The dps of the mk1 braton is ~60% higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nazzami Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Strun Wraith + Lex Prime + Kokage, why bother using another weapons now? Seems this will be the normal weapon setup for everyone in PvP now, the joys of "balance".But seriously they should make it that all weapons variations e.g Prime, Wraith , Vandal etc should only be a cosmetic change the stats should stay the same as on the original weapon.

rockscl Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) the only good thing about all this, is that when people calls op a lot of things, then the game is balanced, coz everything is broken Edited May 15, 2015 by rockscl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pythadragon Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Tonkor is still an option for those who can't aim. Tonkor is actually really hard to use effectively. To do so requires excellent aim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oinkah Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Strun is meh because of its impact damage. That's a pretty big downside due to recent influx of Valkyrs. Edited May 15, 2015 by oinkah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnthesteak87 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 DE states that they pretty much will only mess with damage stats, leaving the fire rate etc alone. And that's the fail. Because some guns have less disavantages (ex. high recoil, easily fixed with Stabilizer) and more imbalanced ratios between fire ratio, overall DPS and reload speed.

sappinmahsentry Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 Tonkor is actually really hard to use effectively. To do so requires excellent aim. Nope, you can just shoot tonkor shells at your feet, reload, repeat. It keeps enemies away from you and with the extreme blast radius of the Tonkor, it's a no skill weapon.

taiiat Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 why, exactly, should a Weapon be artificially nerfed just because it says MK-1 on it? it's PvP - all options should ideally be pretty equal. making as many Playstyles as possible. as well, as Primaries in PvP must be superior to Secondaries. because of Capture the Flag limiting you to Secondaries - this means no access to Primary - meaning that must actually be a disadvantage. - - - - - now. the effectiveness of MK-1 Braton does look a bit high. that would be a simple fix though. 35 Damage per shot, and a Magazine of 30. there's no reason why a very similar Weapon that does more Damage should have a larger Magazine. (in comparison to Braton) adjusting like that would make MK-1 Braton ~2.86% more effective than Braton. but having a higher TTK (~933ms TTK compared to ~909ms for Braton) from the average of 225 Health & Shields. note that i don't account for IPS spread because hell naw am i calculating that - and Damage Types shouldn't exist in PvP anyways. not if Digital Extremes expects PvP to really take off. among some other things, having Damage Types keeps PvP from being competitive in Warframe. But seriously they should make it that all weapons variations e.g Prime, Wraith , Vandal etc should only be a cosmetic change the stats should stay the same as on the original weapon.making everything be Skins reduces the Playstyles you can support.this is not a particularly good idea.

rockscl Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 so, how long till strun wraith gets nerfed?, you should already be able to compare the win ratio of that weapon, its ludicrous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[DE]Artarrwen Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 MK-1 Braton is just stupid OP. I can't find a match without someone abusing the S#&$ out of this cocking thing. And when half of the players in the match are carrying I might as well just quit, its ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockscl Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) im just asking DE to check win ratios, i think its doing wonders specially in the tight anihilation maps where also you get more benefit from killing at close range, and ill change my word "nerf" for "take a look at this" Edited May 16, 2015 by rockscl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll probably check things out again a week or two after Dera vandal/Karak wraith come out. The same thing will happen then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
