• Level 2: 100 certs
• Level 3: 200 certs
• Level 4: 500 certs.

I really wish my Bullet points showed up.

I see bullet points.

I wouldn't have a problem with that list. But not entirely sure about MAX head armour. I am not a fan of MAXes to be honest, but I am not sure we should add weak armour points to slow moving entities.

Artemis, Stalker and SOAS:

• Magazine size increased from 24 to 30

Magburber:

• Max duration increased to 6 seconds
• Regeneration at max rank in 10 seconds

Lock on weapons:

• Removed from game (learn to aim yourself)

Please for the love of god

Oh yes, I just love to magburb over TR and NC!

All that change would do is make kinetic armor not effect the maxes head anymore.

The maxes Head would still have that 80% damage reduction that Max units have, but it wouldn't gain any additional small arms damage reduction from kinetic armor. If that makes sense.

Yes. Lock ons are replaced with burster weapons equal to a single MAX burster. Now everyone can easily pull a an AA weapon, at almost anytime, for free, and return fire immediately, instead of having to wait up to 3 seconds for a lock, that can easily be negated by a flare.

Would definitely fix that pesky air problem.

Inquisitor:

• added 2-round burstfire mode

Cerberus:

• lowered damage at all ranges
• increased magazine ammo to 15 from 10
• added 3-round burstfire mode

How about 4-round burst to make it unique?

I'd love to see these..
The Inquisitor had a 2x burst on PTS a week ago, but they removed it again..

Stiker gets revamp,it becomes a single fracture.

what are you talking about? I've only run over friendlies with it?

I'd love to see these..
The Inquisitor had a 2x burst on PTS a week ago, but they removed it again..



I knew I missed something for the patch notes... that x2 burst mode for the Inquisitor.



anyways its great seeing people like the notes.



Now SOE really should follow threw..........

My radical experimental patch notes for weapon changes.
