Well lasher could be buffed little since they are nerfing ADS of our heavies...velocity of 100m/s makes it sucky weapon for long and cqc ranges. at least 200-250m/s. And I can't stand that god awful annoying sound anymore. It needs new sound.
I would give the Lasher acceleration so that its close quarters velocity is essentially unchanged but Lasher rain is more reliable. I am also really not so fond of the projectile broadcasting to the whole battlefield where the person firing is.
That trash needs way more than a "slight buff", even engineer turrets can do a much better suppression job. Killing power is always the deciding factor for any weapon.
Y too many TR whiners around who want to nerf everything except them. But lasher definetely needs velocity buff. At least 200-250m/s.
If you think current sound is bad then you should have heard the old noise it used to make before vanu firing round revamp.
Or tower defenses when you are trying to suppress the staircases (And the TR/NC forget about using LAs)
Basically, if you have any sort of high-ground, and the enemy is trying to advance, the Lasher is broken as all hell.
