Actual Numbers for Gun Stats

<< < (2/3) > >>

Machiavelliest:
AoE radius is in meters.  Range is also in meters.

Pickle:
It's probably pointless to be too specific about numbers when writing a guide to effective weapons use.  The numbers aren't fixed and any guide that's too specific is likely to be out if date as soon as the next balancing patch hits the game.  The data in the table is more than enough for comparisons at the moment - and those numbers have changed since the table was first put up.

It'd be fairly easy to ascertain those numbers just by looking at patch notes, should Muse feel like not being sadistic.  Having this stuff displayed somewhere in-game would be best, obviously, with a simple meter for new players and the hard numbers for thsoe looking to twink.

All very well, but is the author of a guide going to go back into it and update the numbers quoted in the guide whenever there's a patch?

It's fine to be able to refer to the table if Eric is keeping it up-to-date.  But a guide author is making a rod for their own back if they make their guide so specific as to include the numbers.
