I was happy when I got the Arc Pistol X. It meant I wouldn't get any more Arc Pistol cards.

Its actually not too bad on gold when charged. Takes some getting used to. But its no Carnifex.

Interestingly enough I click at 10.7 times a second according to: http://scratch.mit.e...vortex19/820640

Is this unusual?

That ones different to some I've tried. I'm topping out at 8.3, normally only score a max of 7.7.

I got 8.2 there, don't really think it matters though. I wouldn't be able to click away like that for 3 waves, much less 11.

So I noticed that the minimum charge time is 0 on the arc pistol. This implies that you could potentially do double damage at the full rate of fire, because once charging begins, you should be able to immediately unload a single charged round for double damage, if you can get the game to detect you holding the button down. I'm testing it out and I've been able to get about 4-5 charged shots/second, which does slightly more or less than the DPS for the full 550RPM against armored foes on gold, and more than the Carnifex I that I have. The best I can do is about 7 taps a second in very short bursts and even that is just too much work, and painful.

The key is to reverse the normal tap so that the release motion is a short impulse motion like a mouse tap. That way you bring down the time between shots by starting the charge more asap after the release. So ...

Tap up!

Ok for geth.

Funny it's so bad when the whole team was so enthusiastic about it when Tali presented it on the Geth Dreadnought

I'm at 11.4, but there is no way I'll keep this up for more that a single wave.

Dislike any chargeable weapon, it forced me out of cover to charge it. Carnifex easily outmatch this Glorified Air Purifier.

Dear admiral Xen - You're the reason quarian can't defeat the Geth

The damage is for when it's charged.
It should have been like that permanently, to be honest.

The charge time takes too long for efficiency. Especially on Gold.

So whats the conclusion, Is it good? Is it crap? My playstyle is more like fast-clicking than charge shot.

I wouldn't use it on gold, but to change things up on silver for a bit its a fun weapon to use.

I like it with my DA. Since it burns through ammo I feel less guilty about replenishing my grenades with the ammo pack as I get more bang for my buck

It works perfectly well on gold.

My conclusion... it's a very nice weapon in competent hands, and it has similar damage to a Paladin while providing -200% cooldown.
