Thread: Can Someone please explain to me why the T21 was nerfed when FWG5's are like this
id love to see the t21 returned to the original350-650 damage at 9.0 seconds.
i owned one, never used it cause it was too **edit** slow. sold that one for 200k and bought a new one that i use now for landing my first mindbleed befor ei swich to my lser rifle or pistol.
Jandreww, Its a Secret... but you seem Like a cool enough Guy, so Im Gonna let you in on it..
The Ones that we are TOTALLY Owning are AFKers but only between 60-64m.
and as for the .30-06 to 9mm Comparison.... heres a Question for ya, which one do you think Shoots further?
GET RID of the 64m Joke for Snipers. I Can throw rocks Further, Faster, and More accurately with Lower Mental strain than is Imposed on the sniper in this Game. Devs wouldnt know a REALL rifleman if one was sleeping with their mother....
I am Master Pistoleer so I think I am a bit concerned with this new whine (nothing new actually). The FWG5 is NOT a Pistoleer gun to begin with...it is just the most used by low lvl Pistoleers / Smugglers (BH or Commando are using their own pistol). Our meant certification is way worst than yours (did you compared your so nerfed T21 to our so powerful DX2 ?).
Is the FWG5 too powerful ? To be honest, I think it is. Now, you have to remember it is an AP0 and Heat dmg gun, very far from "efficient" even with those stats, which are not rare, they are impossible on all other servers. This gun exists because resources there ar just incredible, I'm pretty sure T21 will be much better with same lvl of resources.
I'm posting here because one of you stated that devs LOVE Pistoleers...really, you should try pistoleer and comment it back. Everything in the game holding a Pistol IS NOT a Pistoleer. Pistoleer is even the less efficient Pistol user. You should check your info before affirming stupid stuff.
As far as I know, Rifleman is still the only Rifle user, that's why you think you are less efficient than pistoleer. The point is PURE Pistoleer is way less efficient than Rifleman.
I Mastered them both, I know what I'm talking about.
Móm mom ..... my ferrari is slower than this guys porsche ... but it is a ferrari so it must be faster .... doesn't matter how upgraded his engine is ... i got a ferrari AND IT HAS TO BE faster. No matter what .
Great ...... comparing a high advanced fwg5 with a standart t21 ..... great action .... about 200k+ for the gun and 35k for the rifle ... which one should be better ?
So lame .... why dont u just focus on ya own profession ?

You will note that it takes 11 krayt tissue to upgrade 1 T21 and only 1 for a fwg5. Esentially that means you could literally build 11fwg5s for the resources that go into a single T21. Also since the standard resources that are required are of much greater quantity and quality than a fwg5, the T21 is severly underpowered. It is a waste of resources and money to upgrade one. It would litterally take over 1+ million to come up with the best resources for a T21. Lets see.... 1 million = 200k. I guess it does! Yay they balance! Even weapon smiths will let you know that the resources for the T21 are not worth it. That is why we use laser rifles more than T21s now.
Plus what are your mind costs on the fwg5? I am sure they are nowhere near the 79 of mine. And mine is post nerf. My pre-nerf was the same but the dmg was much greater. If they were to up the dmg only lets say 50-75 points the weapon would be worth it. Until then though its basically a glorified suicide machine.

good point... i was thinking the same thing. try telling any real gun owner that a 9mm does more harm than a 30.06. rediculous.
I believe that's supposed to be .306 
dunno why they say it as thirty-aught-six.
9mm is .9cm, there is 2.54cm to an inch sooooooo...
9mm is like .354. US pistol boreare .357 and .45 (although some might be .22)
Shotguns go by "guage" which are funky; smaller is bigger. I think 12ga is .5"? Someone help me there...
Therefore bore diameter is not the issue. What IS the issue is the grain # which are up to 5 times that on a rifle and spin the bullet: Higher power (less drop) and accuracy. This also allows for different bullets that can pierce armor where this is difficult with a pistol (w/o hand braces).
