Byron Cavendish:
The gun is really shit right now, no way around it. It's really sad because we waited so long for a new gun, even longer for a new heavy gun, and it can't be implemented as a balanced, viable weapon. I really am struggling to understand why a certain someone in charge of balance has not lost his job.

The devs thought the Pyra needed a Nerf, and that the extinguisher is fine as is and they need to nerf Flamer. They're utter shite at balancing, you should know this.

This causes some particles to miss and others to hit balloon. I observed that the particles that hit aren't concentrated enough to push effectively. Greased can be used at further ranges, but of the particles that hit some will hit balloon and others will spread out too much to reliably push. In many cases I'd encourage using heavy clip up to 300 meters or even closer if your goal is max pushing and damage.

If you want max disruption, you almost always aim at the balloon mid to long range since it sticks out the most on most ships. I have my Mino gunners bring Lesmok, heavy, and whatever. Generally charged at close range. The reasons for charged close range instead of greased is that it only takes two shots to disrupt any ship pretty badly. Greased or burst actually have too many shots, so you end up pushing/spinning them too much. Charged gives the best armor damage close range with the best control.
