1.3 General Speculation
Zenark:
From what I've seen, the decrease in clip size for Heavy Clip is not too bad. It doesn't nerf the Gatling to the point of making it weak, it's still the ultimate armor striper. For other weapons, like the Caronade having 4 shots rather than 5,it's also not TOO bad of a change. Those four shots can still annihilate a balloon. Haven't checked the Hwacha, but it can't be too bad.
This'll at least make it viable to use other ammo types more.

Bring a heavy carronade and watch junkers lose armor with record speed! Last night Echo and I wrecked a junker so quick our ally only really had to throw explosive at it (we had a blenderfish).. dead before they even knew what happened.

Shh.. don't spread the secret sorceries I use.

On the subject of the gat...
Let's compare greased rounds to the new heavy.
Greased: 10 rounds per second, 13.6 damage per round
DPS: 136
Per clip: 979.2
Heavy: 6.25 rounds per second, 17 damage per round
DPS: 106.25
Per clip: 765
Ok, so that's a pretty big difference.
Now, buff hammer to the rescue.
Buffed heavy: 6.25 rounds per second, 20.4 damage per round
DPS: 127.5
Per clip: 918
Is the little bit of extra damage from greased worth it, considering that you can get a vastly more accurate buffed heavy?
Zenark:
Sunderland loves his buff hammer. You could also buff with Greased ammo to do some serious damage, though you really wouldn't have to. I agree that a buffed Heavy Clip would be better than just Greased, but ships won't always have a buff hammer.
