Typhon, Heavy Flak Discussion.

(1/23) > >>

Echoez:
Well, I just read through the 1.3.1 Lesmok thread and the Heavy Flak has been brought up a lot, so here is this thread to discuss it.

So, now that 1.3 Lesmok is gone, is the Heavy Flak so seriously hampened that it's not that usable, or is the actual gun broken and needs to be looked at over Lesmok after all?

And to add my input, I do think it is the gun. Opinions anyone?~

RearAdmiralZill:
I don't shoot often, so this is just theory.

What if heavy flak had sights similar to the LJ, so you could more easily gauge shots?

Rainer Zu Fall:
I think the heavy flak has been nerfed now pretty much.
A sight isn't the solution the heavy flak needs, it needs a bit of work right now again. (Although I agree that a sight might help many players with arcing!) There needs to be much more damage dealt with it - either that or increase the number of shots, so lesmok doesn't decrease it to 1 shot.

Zenark:
The Lesmok change really doesn't affect my ships that much, but that's because I ask my gunners to bring charged.

If the flak can only be effective with lesmok, then I think your gunner is at fault. The flak works fine with other ammo types, it just requires a bit more skill. Even the low level gunners that jump aboard seem to do fine without lesmok.

Rainer Zu Fall:
It's a gun for far ranges. Why use it on a close range then? That's not the meaning of "far range"...
