Speed is good, and love the acid damage. Damage is great too, right about the t21's specs on my server, syclla. Awesome wound chances, for that added effect in PvP. But -180 at 64m i take it. guess it'll have to be a mid range weapon around 40 to 50m. And final thoughts, those HAM cost are killer, OUCH!!!

Even with the low accuracy at 64m and ham cost that is still one nice rifle. High minimum damage...mmmmm

cant wait =)

50% wound - wow

Here is more information they finally gave me.

Looks great except two things. The -180 at 64m seems a bit extreme, and the HAM costs look truly evil. (There is a rumour going around that buffs will cap at twice your base stat level, nice change if it's true but it will mean rifles like this will kill the user faster than the target.)

No, the -180 makes sense. Disruptor Rifles have a range of about 20m, maybe just over. After that their energy is too dissipated to work. And if the HAM cost changes go into effect, the HAM drains may not be so lethal to us anymore.

I'll believe that when I see it.

it has a +1 at point blank.. looks more like a replacement to the spray stick to me. The high ham keeps the owner from spamming mindshot at point blank.

From what I heard about this prototype, it was made with poor materials and bad experimentation (it's Test Center, after all). I would expect some improved stats/HAM costs when this gets to the live servers and into the hands of a well-supplied MWS.
