You're still responsible in some way.

I would take a 10% nerf to the Harrier if the Typhoon received a 10% buff at the same time.

And since the destroyer got nerfed can we please have our old typhoon back?

The new one is ok and all but it's really not oustanding as an UR should be on anything thats not the destroyer...

I think my hurricane can kill an atlas just as fast. So an SMG kills at the same rate as a 2.0 weight ultra rare assault rifle with a 4 shot ramp up period.

Biower pls.


This. The Typhoon is only UR status on the Destroyer: Everything else does better with a Harrier. Now that his DM got nerfed (no doubt a huge factor in the Typhoon's original nerf), can we please get some sort of buff for this thing?

I'll laugh as BSN cannibalizes itself while I'm having fun re-enacting Rambo, starring my Krogan Sentinel.

Human Soldier doesn't need to reload with the Typhoon.

Though I still think the damage modifier should be 1.75x rather than 1.5x.

Lol, you can see my posts at the top of page 2 of this thread. It was disgusting what they did to the typhoon. They ignored all arguments to buff it back. The only thing they did was to fix the reverse stability on the gun ( it used to get worse as you leveled it up ), so now it's ok. I gave up on it and have been using the ppr which is superior in performance. It's really a shame since the typhoon looks cool and they did a great job on the artwork, mechanics, etc.

As Charles Barkley would say, it's turrible.

I would think by now there's no way the typhoon is going to get any buffs to it in the future. Hold onto your glorious memories of it's previous self and move on people.

Honestly, the dev response of saying the Typhoon is "Fine as is" is pretty telling.

You know, I've seen this argument a few times 'round here. Most notably regarding the performance of AR High-Velocity Barrel, where it's been proven time and time and time again that Extended Barrel+Pierce yields more damage-per-shot versus absolutely everything over HVB+Pierce except in the case of like five rifles (Avenger, Geth Pulse Rifle, Phaeston, Collector Rifle, Particle Rifle, and of those, only the Particle Rifle is likely to see common use with that mod.

IIRC it was shown religiously that in every single case except the Particle Rifle, the EB+Pierce is better choice due to not increasing weight, increasing damage against all targets (usually more-than-offsetting the loss of damage from firing at armor) and the fact that EB directly benefits ammunition, whereas HVB does not.

Yet we keep hearing how HVB is a really great deal, from Fagnan. And from the Devs on how the Typhoon is a really great gun, honest, when the Particle Rifle and Hurricane render it functionally irrelevant in virtually every category. And how the 100 point buff to Havoc Strike was in any way consummate with the nerfs taken by Stim Pack. Or that removing the ability of Decoy to bait enemies (which, indeed, was its only goddamned purpose) was a great idea. Or that doing the same to the myriad other deployables (and giving them nothing more than token buffs when they've been underpowered for quite a while whilst I'm at it) was a perfect example of everything the metagame should be. Or that the Geth being made even worse post-patch was a stellar example of balance, in the face of all logic. Or that the new Spawn system is an improvement.

You know what? Screw it. There's no longer a nice way to put this - I'll go right out and say it. The Devs officially have barely any idea what the heck they're doing with decisions like these. In any sane world, no-brainer things like this would be addressed in something resembling a timely fashion. But here on BSN, we can have things like the one of the factions be a borderline-non-starter for non-stun-resistant-classes on Gold and up be an issue for well-on a year without any action taken.

I think these things say a lot.

I heard N7 Typhoon has the defensive bonus when it picked up. How much?

Isn't necro, I just lazy to create one more useless topic, as it usually happens here.

Only after they fixed the stability bug, which was not fixed when this thread started :)

Not really. The weapon still did its job on Platinum with that on. It's easy to hit bigger things. You could argue it needs a nerf, it is one of the highest dps weapons in the game.

I am guessing: it was something like 25 of even 50 percent damage taken bonus

Ooo, this is interesting. Does anyone know the exact % of damage protection it can give you while equipped?

Also, I heard that it only applies when you are in cover.

Zero.  Cover DR is innate for every player.
