The Typhoon should be as good as the PPR, which in most cases, it isn't. I'm not saying that the Typhoon is bad, it just isn't as good as the PPR.
Which is why I go with my ppr x.

Typhoon X vs Platinum Atlas : http://www.youtube.c...u850Ip0#t=0m27s
OMG this weapon is so terrible !!!
The Destroyer got nerfed since then but not much has changed since that video was made before they fixed the ridiculous recoil. You just had to use extended mag + recoil dampener. Now you can use extended mag + extended barrel, which means 25% more damage.
Atlas is not the test. Huge target ignore one of the Typhoon's drawbacks.

Graal only gets +40% for headshots on bosses.
GPS doesn't get headshots at all.
Both are very very poor at killing bosses, even on infiltrators. All projectile weapons are.

It's decent but the Particle rifle still does the same thing way way better... and it's better vs mooks.

Actually this statement is false, The PPR needs to be sustained to get a leg up on typhoon when taking down mooks. If at any point you let go the trigger and start firing again, you'd have been better with the typhoon. The PPR only counters the typhoon in "long duration" sustained fire (bosses). Even then, your downtime waiting on the clip to reload sets you back while the typhoon has a much lower charge up and reload is faster than going from 1~full clip on a PPR.
Also keep in mind this is speaking about the weapons with equipment on. The PPR is horrible against everything naked, while the typhoon will penetrate cover, and do extra damage to s/b/a.

In my experience, I found the Striker or the Harrier to be a better match for the Destroyer. IMO, the Typhoon needs a buff.
the Striker... better match for the Destroyer
the Striker... better
the Striker

The problem is that... Harrier is overpowred and is doing the others AR feels weaker.
Harrier don't need a specific class with weapon expertise. Any class, any skill can kill with this gun. This is the major problem.
No, Harrier is the True assault rifle and other ARs just suck.
Very wrong here friend.
True AR?
Anyone can detonate the bigger level of difficulty easier than any other gun. Harrier makes the game MUCH more easier, like Krysae pre-nerf. This is wrong.
It is an UR, it should be powerful. It also has a huge drawback. If you fell this gun "overpowered", well, use BS like Phaeston then.

Agreed. But comparing the current Harrier to the prenerf Krysae is just ridicules, you didn't have to aim with Krysae for gods sake. I'm not a fan of nerfs in general and didn't even care for the Krysae nerf but even I was annoyed when playing with peeps that would use nothing but the Krysae and am personally ticked off that since they abused it, now I gotta suffer and get my gun taken away.

If you're not abusing right hand advantage while using either weapon, you're doing it wrong. Right hand advatage lets me mow down entire spawns with the PPR and not take a shot. I can do the same thing with the Typhoon, but due to it's spread and vibrating/recoil... I feel it's actually harder. PPR can go from head to head to head quite easily. I don't mind the recharge time at all... I never run it out of ammo. Also, during the recharge time I can look around and check my surroundings or fire off a power.
Who doesn't use equipment anymore? I use equipment on bronze.... what else am I going to do with it. The only peices of equipment that I actually value/try to ration are Cyclonic Modulators, AR and Shotgun Rail Amp IIIs. Everything else I have loads of... even AP and Warp ammo IV.

So you think they are going to nerf the Harrier?
As to the Typhoon vs PPR comment by Ronnie - who in their right mind would have a level X Typhoon or PPR and not put equipment on the weapon?

I'd slap a "witch" if they did, lol. I love my Harrier and like 3XT3RM1N4TUS said, if someone feels its "overpowered" then use something else. It being an UR and having very low ammo, in my opinion keeps it from being overpowered because unlike the pre nerf Krysae - which was being used as a comparasion - you actually have to AIM with it or you'll find yourself outta ammo and surrounded by enemies and if you get a stubborn ammo box map like Condor, you are not gonna have a good time, lol.

Nope. Black Widow, Javelin, Claymore, Piranha, Raider, Graal, GPS are MUCH better for boss killing
Just when I thought it couldn't get any more stupid than the OP.
Well done.
I am glad someone agree with me :happy:
