I bought the Nova rifle for my Infiltrator when that used to be available, then started using it for Engie after the change. Hits pretty hard.

I recorded a video of Battle Rifle in the final day of beta. It is a 20 rounds rifle that has poor accurate on mid-range, but has decent ROF.
I'm not really impressed....and I was really looking forward to it

I tried the TR one on an alt just before beta ended, they had certs to blow.

Was pretty underwhelmed. They could take a x6 scope so I guess if you wanted something a little like a Sniper rifle on an Engy/HA it's an option, but it didn't seem to do the damage of even a semi-auto default Sniper rifle really.

Well it's probably a good thing it doesn't do sniper damage since it doesn't have the scope sway. Still wondering whether it's going to be easier to kill people with it than actual sniper in long range fights. Personally I wish it was burst fire. But then that might make it stronger than they wanted in close range fights.

The video is looking pretty good though, range for range he is using a x4 scope? And when he comes up face too face the laser helps him out very much.
