So far the weapon has been hit with 6 nerfs:-

Damage nerf 1
Damage nerf 2
Recoil increased when zoomed
Recoil increased when not zoomed
Ammo capacity decreased
Rate of Fire MASSIVELY decreased.

The first 5 nerfs were fair enough and would leave the weapon balanced. But the RoF nerf has turned the Krysae into a useless paperweight.

The only character who can utilize this weapon with marginal success on Gold difficulty is the Destroyer with Devastator Mode spec'd for RoF bonus. Even then the gun is still weak because the Destroyer is not a Sniper class and lacks Sniper Rifle Damage bonus.

It is ridiculous that Infiltrators can no longer utilise this weapon above Silver Difficulty to any real effect. It's a Rare weapon and should therefore be able to tackle Gold enemies at a decent pace. Now the AI just walks on by when you try to shoot them with a Krysae because it now:-

A) shoots slower
reloads slower
C) projectiles travel slower

It really 'extracts the urine' when a Ravager on Gold/Platinum can fire similar projectiles with 100% precision from across the map and hit with all 3 shells almost instantly, killing you in one volley.

I 100% support this petition.
Although, you realize that the Krysae double shot still works on the Turian soldier with marksman turned on? I haven't gotten the double fire trick to work on the other classes though....
Oh, and for some reason, the Krysae does no damage to a ravager when it still has all of its sacs....some kind of bug?

It's already buried in graveyard why do you wish to exhumate it?

I do agree the ROF was overly harsh. Everything else seems fine, but the ROF change really looks like it broke this weapon in the opposite way of how it first launched. I've never used Krysae. I'm likely never going to use it either, because of this nerf. And I even use crap like Shuriken and Locust on some characters (mostly for fun). Krysae just looks pointless now.

It works fine on infiltrators on gold/plat if you use consumables and spec for sniper damage.

Double shot can be done but it is fiddly and time consuming. Also, a Krysa double shot + one more really slow shot will not kill a Phantom on Gold before she kills you.

I think that double shot is possible on every class (I've tested many and it works), it's only a bit harder to do. In case of ravagers, it's kinda weird becouse sometimes the damage is applied and not showed on health bar. Sometimes it's not applied at all.

Most the time it fires too slowly so that the 2nd and 3rd shot have a very good chance of missing because the enemy has rolled after being hit by the first shot. RoF is simply far too slow and we have no Gear mods to boost it. Only the Destroyer can utilise this weapon and the Soldier class does not have cloak damage bonus evolution 6 which means the shots are weak.

It's a sniper rifle for goddess' sake, we shouldn't have to put it in the hands of a Soldier to be able to fire it quickly enough to kill a mook

If you remove airburst so it only detonates on contact with an enemy, then sure, we have a deal on the ROF.

[Malanek]

I never unlocked it before it was nerfed. It's hard to imagine this thing once being godly.

This my friend, would be perfect! And it would reward players that have good aim!

Indeed, that would be quite good.

[capn233]

That would require a patch and not a "balance change" though.

What are you talking about? They nerfed the Krysae's RoF through a balance change and they can buff it back up with a balance change.

Krysae deservers a better buff

[Chealec]

I might go for it if the clip size was reduced to 2 ... as it stands you only get 2 shots inside a cloak cycle on Infiltrators so reducing the clip size wouldn't hurt them much but it does mean that the Destroyer, with the extended magazine evo, would get 3 shots out of it before reload.

It wouldn't become overkill on the Human soldier as, with AR, you'd get 4 shots before reload rather than 6, so not negating the Falcon or Scorpion nor unbalancing it against the Destroyer.

This would probably make it a slightly better gun for most classes without overpowering it on the Infiltrators... maybe.


... as an aside, the Krysae is still perfectly gold-viable on the Geth Infiltrator... but then, what isn't?

I'd be up for this. I question the officialness of this official petition, though
