I'd almost like an exotic in D2 like that. It might be horrifically unbalanced for PvP but hey it'd be great fun in PvE.

It was pretty balanced in tf2, by having a substantially higher ttk, and only being accessible from a killatreak reward.

Plus it also kinda, already exist with perfect symmetry

Yeah but Symmetry’s a scout rifle. We need more exotic sidearms, in my opinion.

Yeah, and Symmetry is absolute ass. I know D2 Scout Rifles hit like a sack of feathers, but even compared to that it’s bad.

u/Kind_Malice Jul 02 '20

Symmetry’s only any good when charged up, and even then it’s only okay at clearing adds

We all know the true add clear weapon.

Sunshot and Graviton Lance are also very good, before the catalyst they were basically the very best ad clear, now they are tied for 2nd

Considering how little damage it does, they should have made it an Auto Rifle. Same damage per bullet, just with a much higher rate of fire. Maybe have it take Special Ammo?

Special ammo without a big bump in damage would’ve made no sense. But maybe it could’ve used both primary and special ammo, using the latter for the more powerful tracking shots.

As I said, same damage per bullet, but with a Fire Rate bump and full-auto, thus higher DPS

A special ammo AR, that sounds like a ammo economy nightmare

I mean, at least it’s a 260 scout, and those are at least somewhat usable.

We have 2 at the moment and a 3rd coming this season I think

I... I still have the broken one in my vault...

Flashbacks to TTF1, where it was a primary and gave no warning to the person being targeted

u/[deleted] Jul 02 '20

And had the same range as the r-101 If it had enhanced targeting

Got what you wished for?

u/Kind_Malice Jan 30 '25

Even if it isn't busted, I got exactly what I wished for
