This was one of my favorite weapons. I loved it's look, feel, and backstory. I never used it on an infiltrator either mostly soldiers and Turian sentinel. Now it's unusable even on silver. Worse yet the nerfed version is what went into the SP DLC.

Since the nerf Ive only seen one player use it in MP.

It wasn't a sniper rifle, it was a grenade launcher with a built in scope. I'm glad it's dead and buried.

The game files say that the SP version is the pre-nerf one. Either way Commander Shepard could make a water gun deadly.

Though the MP one should be buffed

It was a really user friendly weapon and worked well against the mobs. Rather than doing what they did to it, they should have brought all of the other rifles up.

I simply stop caring about over nerfed weapons and stop using them, and stop keeping up with them; the RNG economy BW chose makes attempting to fix crappy things with credit expenditure completely pointless.

Artificial store trip boosting is artificial, and if BW makes it mandatory for every weapon to function in platinum to shave off profits, they're going to run out of customers, simple as.

If the game stops being fun in either direction, people stop playing.

Problem is, BW doesn't seem to be able to find the middle ground happy contextual median for most players, and console-slaved patching will only make things take literal months and months to fix.

Never really used it, and after the nerfs, I don't have a need to use it anyway.

Pretty much this.
Krysae snipers having to actually work for their kills now? Oh, no!

Yeah it is the pre nerf one, damage is on par with the BW maybe more I can't remember.

Never liked the weapon even when it first came out I disliked it. really indifferent to it being nerfed, I did try it just to test it out and found that the falcon is much more effective now.

Exactly my feelings on the matter.

Krysae is not only a piece of junk. It nigh unplayable on Platinum... The enemies regen shields an barriers faster than I could damage them with the Krysae X.

To the players in the lobby with me last night on Platinum, I'm sorry I took the Krysae X on my Krogan Sentinel. I was seriously gimped as I have to depend on my Geth Pulse Shotgun X (secondary weapon) to do any real damage as I kept running out of lift grenades.

Also, stop being stingy with grenade drops in ammo crates. I could only get 1 grenade every wave from each ammo box. Looks like the ammo box's grenade and ammo regeneration rate is crap on Platinum...

Way to go Bioware...

Krysae is a powerful sniper rifle in gold.

Err, nope. I think you will find that Krysae snipers all moved onto the Piranha X for their easy kills Image IPB

No it's just crap now. It can't kill anything fast, it can't crowd control well, and you're exposed for way too long. It's just crap.

As for the SP Krysae the word on the forums is it's the nerfed version. Can anybody here confirm or deny these reports?

I wouldn't call something that can kill 2 enemies in 3 shots "junk".

Krysae is still pretty potent with the right build (and in the right hands, I guess). I never did think it was a tremendously overpowered weapon, but them, I'm not prone to fits of hysterics like most nerfers are. But its still very much useable on Gold with Infiltrators, T. Soldiers, and so on.

I'd say the krysae was a special case because it was literally sniping for dummies.

It rewarded poor aim with homing rounds and splash damage, and was amongst the more powerful snipers dps wise.
I'm normally against nerfs of any kind but being an experienced sniper infiltrator, the second I picked this thing up I knew it was bound to get hit with the nerf bat eventually.

No you can't kill 2 enemies in 3 shots on Platinum...

It's the other way around... 2 enemies can kill you in 3 shots..

That's a good observation. Is it just me or do a large number of nerfers have Asari icons? Seems like casters are jealous.

Gotta love the overreaction when anything people use gets a nerf. It's less useful now, but it's not useless. I still do well enough with it on Gold when I feel like giving it a whirl, and not on Infiltrators or the Destroyer either.

The trick is to know what it's for. It's not a boss-destroying artillery cannon made of nuclear explosions, it's a crowd damaging blanket weapon used for groups and applying ammo powers in a wide range. Of course it's not useful on Platinum, because that's a boss rush. It's for taking out soft targets, not armored everything. Ironic given it's supposed to be an anti-materiel rifle but that's not the point.

It's not dead, it's just brought down a few pegs. There's a difference.

It could use a buff to fire rate, but other than that the weapon is fine where it's at.

LOL WUT? How, give all weapons AoE with proximity detonators?

EDIT: It's still got that 1.5 armor modifier which makes it do more damage to armor than a rank X Black Widow at rank I.
