It's funny when people ignore all the benefits of a weapon simply to try and make a point.
True they only do 2 damage, but they do it every (what half a second?). Stretch that out over an AC20 firing time and you get....16 damage (I think AC20 shoots every 4 second?).
Wow that's really close.... except it's like a third of the weight.
Oh it's has 3 times the range you say....
Well, when they're are actually compared in an intelligent manner.... it does 75% of the damage for 30(ish)% of the weight at 300% the range....wonder what happens when you have two of them...
Wouldn't exactly call that "OMGTerribadFTHISGAME"
The only benefit to getting the bigger AC is that you spend less time using skill to aim, and more time cowering behind a rock waiting for the weapon cool down timer.
Yep, and you stand out in the open spamming your meaningless damage, then come and complain about TTK and pinpoint accuracy.
