Two weapons that need changed before PTS is over
Two guns in particular are still outliers after the SVD nerf. These two guns need to be brought down so other guns will see action.
Lightweight M4/LVOA archetype- This gun has a very high RPM with damage that rivals the similar in class ACR. The damage could very easily see a 10-15% damage nerf which would allow the ACR to see some daylight. Making this change would make all AR's competitive in nature from the Ak-to the Bullfrog.
I stole this from a previous post from Ruar35 which supports my claim asking for a 10-15% damage nerf.
Examples
AK-47 22.2k x 30= 666k at 600 RoF (10 rounds per second *RPS*) = 666k in 3 seconds or 222k per second 18%
Lightweight M4 17.8k x 30 = 534k at 850 RoF 914.1 RPS) = 534k in 2.1 seconds or 254k per second
Enhanced ACR-E 17.3k x 30 = 529k at 760 RoF = (12.6 RPS) = 529k in 2.3 seconds or 230k per second 10%
Which means the Lightweight M4 puts out 18% more damage per second than the AK-47, 10% more than the Enhanced ACR-E assuming all rounds hit and I did the math correct.
SASG shotgun- This gun is just silly, the RPM's the gun is able to achieve should not be possible on a shotgun. The M870 was long the king of the shotguns for it's ability to 1-2 shot people. The SASG has replaced it and it's almost exactly where the M870 was, in fact some can argue it's even more silly than the M870 days. Please lower the damage by 15-20% to encourage it's more spray and play style versus the more tactical approach the M870 and Super 90 offer. Double Barrel shotguns should also see a damage buff of roughly 8-12% to encourage more in your face/finish your opponent off gameplay.
Now that Division seems to becoming a gun game again, we must find ways to actively find place of all it's unique guns in the "meta"(I hate this word) and changing these two guns in particular is a great first step in that.
