Locust still needs another buff.
Rokayt, if the Raptor gets buffed.

Legendary.


Well. We have gotten as many posts as buff the Locust ever did at this point.


WE have as many posts as the entire Locust buff front did.

I think my next two campaigns will be Re-buff the locust, and Buff the Incisor.... Just to catch back up on my promises.

Buff the Incisor...

I think you just became my favourite person in existence. You know, except me.

Hell.

My next thread may be the inter-uncommon balance compendium. What I was originally planning when I wrote this.

Basically: One big multistep plan to buff the uncommons to all be fairly balanced with each other.

Raptor was **** even in demo, it's **** now. Nothing is changed, move on.

We have estabilished why this is totally innacurate already.

The Raptor was the highest (Actually second highest,) DPS weapon back then, it reliably pulled headshots like a boss.

However.......... It just been power creeped out of existance in the past two months.

For comic relief:

Power Crepes.

This is where I disagree. Its stats haven't changed and enemy health stats haven't changed drastically. Nothing about it is boss right now which means nothing was boss about it then either.

If it was those crepes that had put the Raptor out of business, I'd be perfectly okay with that.

Nope. People just unlocked better weapons(even without DLCs) and raptor was deservedly left in oblivion. Unless you wanted Carpal syndrome you'd better avoid mattock and raptor. Like Black Widow, Valiant etc. 
P.S. There are many much more important things that deserve buffs.

Please, do tell whish more important things need buffs? (For the record, if you say anything that has been previously nerfed, Your opinion is probably made invalid)

Tell me. Is it really a good idea to ask for a buff when you frankly have no idea how it should be buffed Star Fury?

No case worthy of getting it buffed?

If you dont have the foundation for a buff ready, you might as well not even try.

I support this thread. Just equipped the Raptor last night for the first time in months, and it was so disappointing.

i was rocking the Raptor on my human engineer last night during a few silver matches...with the AP ammo 1, sniper 2, and sniper/tech gear....just for S's & G's....Wooooo....WAS KILLING it. good fun. semiauto with a fire rate better than the mattock...but not as good as the predator (imho of course).

gonna try it on gold tonight. will need a lightweight backup weapon just in case.

It has an very exhilarating feel to it...... Hence me loving the gun for so long.

Its just that you would have to beat your head on a light socket so hard that your eye could be expected to fit into the light socket in the end...... In order to be able to tell yourself that it has any factor that is significantly better then any of the Indras traits.

Just played a silver match with my krogan sentinel, hornet & raptor.

Did fairly well, raptor isn't bad for silver and the hornet was just mowing mooks down.

Raptor is completely outdone by the Indra though.

Now. Raptor AP+EB +Mattock Scope+AP.

Then Raptor AP+EB +Arc Pistol EB+Scope. (ON host.)

yeah...Mattock with a scope is superior to the Raptor. 

a Saber with a scope....well....i would take that over any sniper rifle to be honest.

On host. Whatever you are comfortable trying a new gun on.

The Arc pistol will do the raptors damage, but without the firecap. (And it has a charge up that makes it go boom and one shot guys.)

I will try silver with the arc pistol just because I have more experience with the raptor on silver than gold.

*edit: no rail amps want to see the base damage (excluding my Krogan's passives)

Prefereably, you want to fight something that doesn't have guardians.

I don't have a problem with guardians, just waiting the 20 minutes for a person to join my lobby <_<
