And that was my point, you shouldn't be able to put that much accuracy on a shotgun and turn it into a sniper rifle that does massive amounts of damage


Sweet.  Since the nerfers have managed to ruin sniper rifles, they now believe it's the status quo that sniper rifles should hit like a pillow fight.

I don't know whether it's funny or sad that you actually think you know what's better for the game.


This is one of the main reasons that democracy is a horrible way of desicion-making. The inbred degenerate as just as much to say as the professeor who wrote a ph.d on the subject. It is however, the lesser evil when it comes to government.

You can't even go a post without calling someone a nerfer lol

You sound very unbiast to me......hmmm 

Anytime someone suggests a change you jump on them "OMG NERFER NERFER GET THE PITCHFORK AND TORCHES" :lol:


Considering you just advocating nerfing a vanilla weapon mod, yes.  The community would be a much better place without you.

Claymore also 1 shots most things, does insane damage, isn't that low on ammo

classes you're going to use it on don't really care that much about weight

So what are the drawbacks again? It's basically a shotgun you can snipe with when using the accuracy mod

And that was my point, you shouldn't be able to put that much accuracy on a shotgun and turn it into a sniper rifle that does massive amounts of damage


Without Reload Canceling, you can fire the Claymore every 3.5s. Three and a half seconds. Get that through your head.

With Reload Canceling, you can fire every 2s, which is kinda decent, but it is still a huge drawback since a miss or a screwed up reload cancel means that you will not be doing any damage for up to 4s AND you must fire exactly when you hear the click otherwise Reload Cancel will not work.

And no, you can't snipe with any shotgun save for Crusader, scoped Talon coupled with Marksman and maybe the GPS.
Other shotguns including the Claymore have decent range, but they are not even close to Sniper Rifle range.

You might have rocked the game point-wise, but as far as team play goes, you definitely could learn a thing or two. Wave 3, escort mission, you don't even bother to go to the drone. Also you see the guy down next to the high ladder, you don't bother reviving, you go for the kill upstairs. The escort starts again, another teammate goes down, you go for the kill when you could have assisted the team. If this build has so many DPS, you can easily keep mobs/bosses at bay and stay in the circle.

Oh noez my feelings are hurt, what shall I do

It cuts me deep hearing you say this place would be better without me.....

Sniper rifles are fine btw. You're doing it wrong.

I'll even go so far as to say the Krysae was a bit overnerfed though.

But.....






since I'm a nerfer........




I'm kinda glad it was. Because it was a stupid design to begin with.

I'll bet that rustles your jimmies.

@kalas

Aka the build i use with revenant for which i still have not seen any class or player even being remotely equal?

Still the gi is fine where it is, a run of the mill scrub will not even be remotely capable to use its true potential (some truly believe the typhoon works on him*haha primitives*)

You can snipe just fine with a claymore, if you can't, well you need to practice more headshots.  Maybe not across an entire map, but it's pretty damn close and for most maps it's you don't need sniper range.  

I will agree that if you miss with the claymore it's quite a big drawback.  However, with the accuracy choke it's pretty damn hard to miss.  Which gets rid of the drawback for all the weapon's perks...which is again my point.

But no one cares about using logic, just seeing their precious weapon being discussed about possible being changed suddenly gets all their panties in a bunch.

Thank god (or the game designers) that it does one shot mooks. Otherwise it would be completely unuseable.

And the fact that it is confined to classes that doesn't care about weight is a drawback, so you pretty much answered that one yourself.

As an experiment, try taking 2 infiltrators: One with a Black Widow or Valiant and one with a Claymore; the one with the Claymore follows the one with the Sniper Rifle. Engage different targets at the same distance to see how effective it really is at range... My money is on the sniper.

Woah, hold it there. I never said he wasnt. He is the definition of a glass cannon. He has absurd damage output but he is the one that will down if someone looks at him funny. He should have brought something other than a trenchcoat.;)

The GI is not a glass cannon. Spec him for 4/5/6/6/5. He'll outlast anything else on the field.

Thats absolutely true, as long as you don't sit in the hack circle, don't escort the VI, don't guard/be the pizza boy, don't (de)activate objectives, and don't try to revive fallen teammates in any area where enemies have a line of sight on.
Basicly the GI has the highest survivability as long as all you do is kill enemies while ignoring your team... kinda like the guy in video. Image IPB

Every few seconds?  Why that sounds like caster classes!  Boy are those classes in for a rude awakening when the call of duty kiddies like hamster there realize there's ways to do damage besides guns.

Really? Duty kiddie? You can do better than that.  Cmon, I want something like bottom of the barrel, scum sucking, can't aim, worthless loser, who lives in a cardboard box, eats too many twinkies, and couldn't play a FPS game with cheats installed or something......

Most people are not that great. They'll make any class look bad. It doesnt mean it isnt overpowered. Since you are on pc you may have to play with people like topographer to see someone rival you.

The typhoon is overrated. I prefer the harrier. Everything will be dead quickly so the lack of ammo doesnt concern me. I dont know why you stick with the revenant but if it works for you thats great.

"call of duty kiddies".

I agree that most maps do not require sniper rifle range. That is not problem of shotguns or pistols, that is a design problem. BioWare obviously can't make big maps thanks to wonderful xbox and ps3 consoles. Yay.

It is hard to miss because the pellet spread is tighter. Yes, that makes a lot of sense lol.

Slowish RoF + super long reload make Claymore really slow firing weapon. If you miss, your DPS sinks low and you are not going to be dealing any damage for a few seconds. If you hit, you still can't do anything for at least 2 seconds assuming you can Reload Cancel perfectly. 
That is a drawback you cannot refute.

Weight is also a factor on most classes and builds.

Except for the fact that you have yet to use logic.

LOL. You cant say a class is bad because it is being controlled by a bad player.

Hack circle: Kill everything before it even comes close. Every class is a sitting duck.
Escort VI: Kill anything in your path. Whatever is dead cant hit back.
Guard pizza: He has a speed boost thanks to HM. Have him do it.
Deactivate: As long as my team doesnt follow me I deactivate them just fine. The team deals with the enemies while I move effortlessly past the enemy. Also why is it always the infiltrator's job to do this? every class is capable and if everyone is standing on opposite ends of the map to deactivate if it comes near them it'll go by faster.

slow rate of fire means nothing when you 1 shot pretty much everything

reload isn't -that- long

if you miss with accuracy choke on a claymore, then you're either at a really long range, or you're just not very good, so rarely does your dps ever sink

It's not a good weapon for casters sure, but put it on a human soldier, krogan vanguard, infiltrators are you now eliminate all drawbacks and are unstoppable

Regardless that I think the claymore is still slightly OP I'm okay with it the way it is now, I still think shotguns should not be effective unless you're close range

The pirahna however could use a nerf

And when someone turns an argument into personal attacks I know they obviously don't care about making an argument, they just don't like to see that someone has a different opinion

But it's amusing, so keep calling me all the names you want

A GI specced for duration makes a great medic, your speed is increased and you can see what's around your downed colleague before you get there. Escort missions are a little tough but you can crank out great dps while your teammates revive you. Pizza deliveries are great - either guide your delivery boy by looking ahead with hunter mode, or do it yourself with your increased speed. Team hack - find a spot to hide and kill things, your teammates will pick you up when you fall. 1234 hack - you're made for this. Eliminate the targets - go hunt them down and kill them like you've been doing the whole game.

Yeah, well that is balance. Insane firepower but lack of clips keeps it from being overpowered.
Well that would be your choice. Hurricane has enough fire power for me.

Never seen Brutes die that fast even on Bronze.  This is just amazing and the sad thing is, it will most likely get nerfed even though all the gear was earned and he just put the pieces together.  That build is nothing short of God mode and I believed he earned it.

Thoughts? 

Also, I apologize if this has been posted/mentioned already.  Curious for some discussion.

That guys score is a total farce. I didn't watch the whole thing, but I watched enough to notice that he never bothers to revive teammates, and never helps with objectives. He simply runs around the map kill whoring while each objective wave is stretched out to its limit. Either he had a terrible team who couldn't even manage to complete objectives with him constantly clearing the map, or the entire video was staged to make the Piranha look more powerful than it really is.

I love the (il)logic of the people wanting the Piranha nerfed, one class does exceptionally well with a gun that everyone else does average with, so it must be nerfed into oblivion. Image IPB


If you had watched the whole thing, you'd know they were draging it out to give the lower level people more XP.  They eneded up earning over 500K.

Also, their clan has speed run videos if it really matters to you.
