Thread: HAR needs a range change
I don't know of any 'rifle' that can only be effective at 16 meters or closer. Flame thrower I can understand but the HAR needs to have its range extended dramatically for the single shot.
I'd like to see the cone remain as is for the HAR, possibly with a slightly extended range. But the acid single shots should have their range extended up to 40 meters or more imo. That would make it an effective weapon because 16 meters is just too close to be useful, might as well use the flame thrower
This is an alternative to giving the HAR a armor piercing rating. Its possible they'd have to tone down the damage multiplier if they increased the range but that's ok. Right now the HAR just isn't worth using and although acid damage is great to use in certain circumstances(endor), 16 meters is entirely too close, especially on endor.
