This is a bit wierd

I was just screwing around with an my NC character, and it seems like the magscatter kills terms in a couple shots with AP ammo. I'm pretty sure its faster than a lancer or thumper, and since an infil can carry it, it seems pretty awesome. Am i just a raving madman or is the magscatter secretly a useful gun? :confused:

I always liked the Magscatter....never realized it was so powerful, lol.

[Baneblade]

It it allegedly as powerful as the Jack per shot. I wouldn't doubt it.

[Desperado]

i think the jack fires 10 pellets per blast, and the sweeper 8, and I *think* the magscatter fires 6, all of them are the same damage per pellet i think :)

you could always fire at a wall and count the bullets ;)

[Baneblade]

That is what I said.

The mag acctualy deos more Damage per pellet than th a JH if a remember correctly, just the Spread is so huge, that even at Point blank pellets can still miss

When I used to cloak (before the Rexo buff), I would always have a Mag on me - it's a fine gun.

[Cryptica]

Mag takes 5 shots to take down a fully armored Rexo at close rage. 3 for an Agile. The Mag eats through 100 health and 75 armor for a Rexo in FIVE shots. That's pretty damn powerful. Then it tears through 50 armor and 100 health in THREE shots for an agile. Two shots to the face will take out an infil.

i was infiling the other day. took me to mag scatter shots to kill an agile. but i practically had the gun up his ass.

Yea, after the ammo changes, I thought it would have sucked to use it, because of the ammo being cut in half. I was wrong, my friend showed me the light after 1 month of AMPing it, the MagScatter Pistol is a god among handguns.

[Cryptica]

If all the pellets hit the target at close range, then you can tear through squids like there's no tomorrow.

I actually also like the repeater, as well. The beamer sucks, hands down, I only grab it once for the XP then drop it. The only advantage is the easy switching between AP and standard rounds. Damage is less than either the repeater or magscatter, range is better but that's not important if you have good infil skills.

[Baneblade]

Beamer does not suck!

My VS toon had over 500 kills alone with that thing...only 5 or so TK...
