    Did you even read my comment? Sure TR got high RPM guns but NC got the best high RPM that TR does not have. It has the highest DPS and fastest TTK. Those 2 things is the main thing for a good high RPM gun.

    LMG and AR are fine. But in carbine section TR is the worst.

    NC highest RPM for a 167 gun is 652. Then TR gets maximum 550. That is 102 RPM slower.
    TR highest RPM for a 143 gun is 750. Then NC should get maximum 648 RPM. But no. They get 845 RPM. That is 95 more RPM. You see the logic now?

    So you're saying that TR should have highest DPS/TTK in every weapon category, cuz faction traits. Lets disregard the comical balance issues that would come with SOE following the "faction trait" nonsense thoroughly. Lets face it, I'm pretty sure SOE has realized that "faction traits" are idiotic for the most part and so they've let every faction have effective close range weaponry. Anyways, the TTK differences between 125/909 and 143/845 are minimal, so you are kidding yourself if you think you're worse off with the Lynx. 10 bullets more is a great advantage, that's one more kill or two more kills if you're shooting at wounded people close together.

    Just pretend the whole "TR has fast firing weapons" doesn't exist and it'll make more sense. If NC had all weapons like the gauss saw then most people would probably join VS or TR. Do you know how popular the carnage and gr22 are? What about the GD7F or bandit? When it comes to Heavy assaults, the best players will recommend the Anchor or even the cyclone/blitz for the weapon selection. This is due to the damage output that matches the other faction heavy weapons.

    The TR also get the highest TTK assault rifle, and for the most part the highest TTK heavy weapon. The high rof carbine is a bit weaker than the serpent or gd7f but also gets 10 more bullets. You don't see the NC and VS ***** and moan about the McG or the TRV, so why cry about our bullethoses?

    You just stated the biggest issue with PS2's balance and content release right there.

    if i recall correctly, this is what the VS Terminus should have been judging by its first iteration on PTS: a highly-accurate zero-recoil 143-damage 2-round-burst assault rifle -- but then VS players cried of course as it was regarded a straight downgrade from the TR SABR-13 and then was made automatic instead

    i for one would love to see a weapon like this! we need fresh new firearms anyway and a lot of NS stuff is still missing like an NS pistol (not revolver!), NS high-capacity LMG, NS boltaction sniper, NS handheld multiple grenadelauncher
