#AmmotudeAdjustment - GREASED ammunition proposals

<< < (5/5)

ZnC:
(tl;dr: Zanc's proposal - Remove +20% Clip Size.)

I refrained from posting because I didn't see a need for Greased to be changed. But after hashing it out with Richard (and Daniel kinda?) on Skype, I do think Buff Hammer + Greased is too strong. This is because of how buff's +20% damage work with the increase in clip size.

Greased gives 60% Rate of Fire, but drops damage by 20%; the buff hammer negates this drawback. So you are essentially getting both +60% Rate of Fire and a +20% Clip Size. The only downsides are -20% Projectile Speed and -15% Rotation speed - mere inconveniences.

My suggestion is (as always) a simple one. Remove the 20% increase in Clip Size. This lets it deal higher DPS while firing, but lowers overall clip damage. Greased then becomes important for getting crucial 'armor-down' shots in, instead of just simply making the gun 'stronger'.

ZnC:
Scratch my previous post. After spending much time discussing and staring at my spreadsheet...

My conclusion is that the (+20% damage from) buff hammer needs to be nerfed first. Otherwise, my proposal would have been +10% clip size, -25% Damage, +80% Rate of Fire. This lets Greased fit into its niche of high burst DPS and low clip damage. However, increasing Rate of Fire also increases the DPS given from buffs. So buffed Greased Gat would be pretty much broken.
