Thread: The HAR is a very cool non-special using weapon
Personally I use the HAR all of the time both in groups and solo. It does more damage over time with normal shots than my launcher does (the accuracy thing sucks, but as I go up it will improve). It's a very nice normal fire weapon, does serious damage (700+) per hit and has acid effects which most MOBs are vulnerable to, players also. I do think it could use some improvement though:
1) Increase the AR to 1.
2) Lower the speed on the regular shot just a little. It'd be nice to see some 3.5-4.0 unsliced HARs.
3) Increase the range of the special attacks, but maybe lower the damage. The flamer should be the close in king of damage. The HAR should be able to hit from further out with the specials, but perhaps not have as big a multiplier as the flamer. It would be nice if we could use the specials out to the full 64m range.
4) Improve the animations, I feel like I'm playing paintball when I shoot the thing. Better animations would be good.
