Holy nuts on a nutsack... testing.

[CynicalGoose]

I used the Twin Gremlins once and it was pretty strong. While I cannot assure you that they are real numbers, they feel correct. It's like a Boltor with higher damage per bolt but a lot lower fire rate (and I believe a slightly slower projectile speed).

Was this thing buffed in secret? Last time I checked the damage was about 30(with an equal spread between IPS).

It is in PvE, we're talking PvP.

[Letter13]

Whoops. Didn't notice this was a PvP thread. 

 

Those numbers do seem a touch OP for PvP balance purposes...

That is nothing. Look at the despair.

DE business secret revealed:
1: Buff an underused item

2: Wait until everyone wants them

3: People will acquire them either by spending plats to get the item OR spending plats on taters, formas, and/or slots.

4: Nerf to normalcy

The gun has been like this for a while. At the very least it was like this during Christmas. If they buffed it this patch, it is gonna be a minor buff.

After playing with it a little, it does do that much damage, really hard to hit with it though. Gotta get really good with leading.

 

Will admit though, a little too powerful, I'm sure Nighttide77 or anyone else I fought against (assuming they see this thread) will be able to give their views from the other side.

It mows you down.

It mows you down.

Only if you stand still, I personally just had to spam it and hope that a couple of shots hit my target.

I can imagine that a dedicated TG user would destroy though.

It's very strong.  It's like having a 30-round gun that shoots knives.  3 or 4 hits, depending.  If you're in close range, there's little need for leading.

 

Btw, Spira and Seer 2-shot...if you can hit anyone with them.

 

I just had a sorta bow match with Riot and a few others in a pug match.  Yeah...when people are able to move about as fast as arrows we've got a problem. Mobility wasn't something that needed buffing.

and a few others

I'm getting noticed, boyz \o/

This gun always had good stats. The major drawback is that it uses slow projectiles instead of hitscan. If you use the flight speed mod, the accuracy goes to hell.

Agreed, most of the times I killed you or others it just felt like pot luck, and being rewarded for pot luck doesn't feel as good as being rewarded for being good at the game.

I might give the Spira/Seer a go just see what they're like, but meh.

[Skaleek]

Weird i was actually using the twin grems today and they read as 18 18 18 with like a 5 fire rate. Was this a hotfix ninja buff?

[Alethkar]

Jat Kittag slam followed by gremlins if ya wanna win cheese some FFA

The seer has always 2 shotted.

 

Just is super pretty hard to land shots with depending on what the other players are using. Lot of times ill drop some ones shields with seer just for some one else to kill em.

Twin Gremlin stats:

• Patch 17.5: 18.0/18.0/18.0
• Patch 18.1.3.1: 18.0/18.0/18.0
• Patch 18.2: 18.0/18.0/18.0
• Patch 18.2.1: 26.5/26.5/26.5

So yes, they just got buffed.
