Jaegen:

Looks to me, after running the numbers, that at very high pistol speeds, fan shot has lower dps than stopping shot. Do you agree?

Any input would be appreciated. Great work. You appear to be the only quant correspondent.

Yes. Any and all "balancing" that was done using delay in conjucation with damage modifiers (whether it's in regards to a weaopn, powerup, or special ability), is GONE at high speeds. Have a weapon that was balanced by being high damage but very slow? No problem, get high speed and it's no longer balanced! That sort of thing.

I personally think this is a significant issue. It's been reported by a number of people now, we might see some changes. I haven't heard it acknowledged yet either way though, so who knows.

So basically those rifles with MASSIVE damage numbers, but very slow speed's will be killing machines once they work up enough +speed.

Good thing they un-nerfed the T21. Can't wait for 3K+ hits with 1-1.5 second delays!
