 Gun is still underwhelming...I used it the other day on Platinum and Gold..... I cried. They were like baby tears....I swear a Prime stopped shooting.....he even stopped casting turrets and just walked over to me and said..."really"? I just took my sorry behind home after that and placed the Typhoon back the storage locker where it gains dust respectively.

Here's a video by the way of the enemies that truly do hate the Typhoon's OP'ness.

Yes the gun needs a buff. Compare it to a PPR. PPR does more damage, is more accurate and has no recoil and weighs less. Both are the same rarity.

You do need to stop firing once in a while, but a player will almost always kill stuff faster with a PPR than with a Typhoon.


The PPR takes too long to deal significant damage. It would have been problematic here : http://www.youtube.c...NQ0ax7c#t=1m03s for example.

Also, weapons manufactered by Fisher Price are lame.


The typhoon performs really well on the destroyer, that's a given.

How's about I make a video of using it on the krogan soldier as a little comparison.... the harrier / PPR are much better choices on the krogan soldier.

Also, stability module? Noob! :D

I don't get this -- this video shows gold match, destroyer, rail amp 3, ap ammo 4 and eb.
Of course this video will show how great it is, considering it's damage get multiplied by 1.5 after all bonuses.

op is using destroyer and ap ammo... huge damage buffs there...yet again proving that it's the character choice and add-ons not the weapons.

I dunno why these arguments get trotted out...if you're taking unmodded weapons and no ammo consumables into a gold game, of course you will be terrible at killing stuffImage IPB

thats why i am requesting a solo video with a single atlas , i will duplicate on console and try to compare if that is the truth
.


Video

It will be done uploading in an hour, but unedited footage. Only difference is I did not take 20% extra headshot damage; if it does make a huge difference I will change it since I have respec cards free to use.

meant to quote u lol

Well he did request a PC solo video showing 1 clipping an Atlas on Platinum. I have no reason to cheat...

I'll put my 2 cents in here. References: I have a Typhoon II, PPR X and Hurricane V so that may affect my opinion, but here it is anyway. From my experience, the Typhoon with EM+EB and AP IV performs well on Gold with a Destroyer - well, not great. I used this setup with a Talon to deal with low level mooks and Typhoon for bosses and it worked well.

I used to use the PPR on the Destroyer, but use that on the TGI instead now. I got noticeably better results with the PPR to be honest.

Then, one day I decided to switch up the weapons to a Saber/Hurricane combo. Best decision ever - the Hurricane is such a better boss killer it's not even funny. I can one clip an Atlas' armor with EB+HS in about half the time (not an exact measurement - just an observation) it took me to down an Atlas with my Typhoon setup.

For its weight, it should be a much better gun. It shouldn't have its DPS outdone by a weapon that weighs like 5x less.

My opinion is that it needs a buff. And that's not coming from the BSN thinktank or hivemind. That's from my own experience with the game and yielding better results with other guns. In my opinion, the Typhoon should be the best boss-killing high RoF weapon in the game. It's just not.

But Feneckus, you're constantly shooting that Banshee in the head, that is not fair.

On a more serious note, that guy got called out mainly because he owns quite a few private jets, is friends with Katee Sackhoff, has five cars, owns plat while his manifest clearly says otherwise, is capable of composing soundtracks while being deaf, claims some fanart was made by him while he just googled them and just genuinely talks nonsense.


Exactly. This is why he got called out. It wasn't in regards to his assessment of the weapon, it as due to his ability to make an actual assessment based on playing experiance. He dones't even have a harier or PPR to compare it to, He only plays bronze, and only has 60 hrs in the game.


Also feneckus, the enemies just aren't agressive. No way an console peasent like myself could get away with ebing in the open that much, and eveyrthing but the destroyer gets stunned out fo the ramp up. If you don't ramp it up you do crap damage. There are alot of factors you are missing. I'm not even gonna go into them all, but at the end of the day nobody said its a bad weapon, but its also not as good as you claim it to be for the other 99% of people

For some reason, one guy made a thread calling it a boss killer and everyone made fun of him, which really shows how little most BSNers know about the game. :?


Always inportant to stick to the facts and present them as they are-were rather than leaving out important details in order to support a position you may have as I believe I am aware of the thread in question.

In that thread the OP:

- Has a Typhoon at level II ....is the one in that video and what mods do you have as the OP had very few

-He claimed he was using it in Gold and Plat.....his manifest reflected he didn`t play those levels, he clarified it was actually bronze as he later confirmed in that thread

- Not everyone made fun of him, you missed the entire position certain BSN members took, he wasn`t protraying the facts as they were and called him out on this, in a friendly manner, it wasn`t the first time this poster tried to lead readers astray.....rebuilding an Airforce fighter jet cought my attention.

BSNers as you put it in fact know quite a bit about this game, but if it makes you feel better putting everyone else down to make yourself look good, misrepresent the thread in question and not use the same setup.....wow is all that comes to mind.

not this again. <_< The enemies are MORE aggressive on PC, not less. It's well documented and attested to by a number of reformed console scrubs. (People who have commented on how much more accurate the enemy is on PC than on xbox, after moving to PC from xbox). 

In the video, Feneckus is mainly facing bosses, using soft cover, or shooting things like Phantoms so that they flip. That's why they're not shooting at him.

I know it doesn't suck. Maybe peeps be using odd ammo/mod combos or just bad aim?
My only issue is the spare ammo.
My dakka cannon wants moar ammo!

Edit - My ammo issue is because I mainly use it on my Volus Merc, and those walls can make getting ammo awkward at times.<_<

I'll say one more thing - I think it should be immune to armor DR. Then you don't need to spend an ammo/mod just to make up for that deficiency. Now you can run EB+EM and Warp IV. Then I'd use it over the Hurricane.

On xbox, phantoms shoot you mid flip. They also charge at you agressively alot more then on PC where they just seem to dodge instead. I'm not gonna relive your whole convo cause as you stated it depends on teh PC. a bad PC = less agressive enemies a good PC = more aggresive. it also means even on a good PC, you could run programs in teh background to eat up resources making the game easier as well. In that video the enemies are way less aggresive then on console.

LOL at people thinking Typhoon is bad.

I don't know why but most of people just don't know how to use this weapon, on a destroyer is just AMAZING, and thankfully people haven't even thought about try it on Turian Ghost.

Ghost/Typhoon take out an Atlas faster than Destroyer/Typhoon.

I did and it was still weak. Doing platinum speed runs for the tourney last week and i started with the PPR but the lack of range hurt, so i tried harrier but dind't care fo the lack of ammo since its a boss ruhs mode, when typhoon and it idn't do enough damage so i wound p going back to the PPR

Nice video of the Typhoon....on silver.


...I was there obviously, it was gold and it was one heck of a damn set of games :lol:

I love how my comment is the ending of the video and made complete sense :P

I happen to understand the typhoon only needs 1 buff raise the 1.5 rail up to 1.75

It's a GREAT gun as long as you use it in some proper mannerisms it works well with HSol TurSol and oddly enough I'm sure work just fine on a QSol and pretty good on a few other classes out there but my Destroyer is the key class I use it on myself though I don't pick ROF boost cause of the "gun eat ammo" glitch where it will consume 4 ammo that will never "hit etc." just disapear so I take as big of a clip as I can and make it more hmm damage based I usually just take B T B though I also use a missiel launcher which is a no no to everybody else... but damnit I love extra DPS in the mix
