Seems like a huge damage reduction. I bit too much for an UR.

Let's say for example the Javelin does 10,000 points of damage and you fire it on an enemy with 500 shields.  With the new shield gate, your Javelin will break the shield and do 950 points of damage to the enemy's health.


Fixed that to more realistically portray how much damage you can damn well do after stacking buffs, on a cloaked headshot.

I used the Typhoon a lot. And now it feels useless. I used to be able to take an Atlas out in one magazine while using Piercing Mod V with Damage build on my Devastator.
Now I can barely get its shield down. Feels like a POS now.

Devastator ROF was nerfed too, and we all know why--because the damn typhoon was OP. Same thing happened with TC and Krysae. Why should Destroyer suffer when the problem is with the typhoon?

May need to test it out and see if it's time for a change. That's a 25% reduction on the max damage output (2.0 to 1.5)

Check the stats I posted. They don't lie.

Am I the only one who thought that the Typhoon wasn't even that good (I used rank IV, no Destroyer though) before either of it's nerfs?

It was definitely a good weapon, but it didn't surpass the Harrier at any point. Now, it has a huge amount of penetration taken away, and a significant chunk of damage taken off. Really disappointing if you ask me. I haven't tried using after this recent nerf, but I'm sure it is definitely greatly weaker.

It's not like Destroyer + Typhoon was the most powerful combination in the game. There were, and still are, stronger combinations of chars/equipment. Now, the Destroyer even got a nerf. Sure, I haven't played it yet but I've played with others using it and it didn't need a nerf.

I like all the changes EXCEPT the Typhoon ones. I haven't even unlocked it for God's sake!

The Revenant is far less accurate than the Typhoon-good stats though and BTW I have a Typhoon X ;)

Well, this mainly applies to all the players out there that don't have the gun, but also you to a small degree. What the nerf did is make the gun essentially MARGINALLY better than its competitor, the Revenant, in terms of dps. In fact, the revenant out-DPS's the Typhoon up to a certain point, and even when the Typhoon reaches a level at which it does more damage per shot than the Revenant, it is BARELY enough to warrant using the gun at all considering that you have to charge the weapon up before the damage bonus even kicks in. Compared with the revenant, which starts firing at max damage/rof immediately, the only thing that the Typhoon can boast over the Revenant really is its innate armor reduction (easily fixed by ammos/powers/mods) that makes it a far less attractive weapon to use.

TLDR for most players, the Typhoon is no longer an upgrade untill it reaches an abnormously high level. Even then, other AR's (and even smgs) can easily compete with it.

Unless you are using the Turain Soldier, a Krogan, or Destroyer, the Harrier is probably the better choice.

I just wanted to say here how strong I hate those f**kers that make constant cry on BSN asking devs to fix the gun,they don't even have,because they are...jealous maybe? Can't take a first place on your silver when there is somebody there with Typhoon? So,I repeat, I hate you all, really thank you for making an already hard game on Platinum even more harder, that really helped all of us a lot.

Definetly over-nerfed. Just like falcon in it's time.

Im torn because its still twice as accurate as the revenant and has much less recoil and armor piercing like black widow.

And the buffs (including the Indra one) are nothing? Just more nerfs? To be honest, you should appreciate the buffs because Bioware could decide to not buff anything next week.
