yerbigpops Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I have been pushing this idea from the very beginning, since early access of this game. I just recently came back to the game after a break, and am sad to see it hasn't been addressed (however I am happy with a lot of new things they have implemented). I'd love to see some reasonable weapon choice freedom. Let BH use rifles (and other classes use some different weps). There IS a way. You are already on the right track with customization options expanding (dyes, mods, etc). Include weapons in this system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAWUSS Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 And let it also apply to companions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoom_VI Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I would love to just be able to use a rifle on my commando without being penalized or ridiculed by my peers. I like the playstyle WAY better than vanguard, but hate the required weapon type! You can totally do gunnery with it, I did 2600 dps in 72s with a blaster rifle on a 20 minute parse. Blue augments. But I don't agree with opening up weapon types, They designed each class to have a different visual theme that fits with the classes lore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And visual themes were done away with when orange gear and modifications came into play. Edited November 21, 2013 by yerbigpops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the playstyle WAY better than vanguard, but hate the required weapon type! I might consider a commando if I could use a rifle. I can't stand the way autocannons look.

TheSupaCoopa Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Why leave Agents and Smugglers out of it? It makes sense that they should be able to equip different weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSupaCoopa Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Weapon Damage is predetermined by the class. It's why the offhand weapon does not do the same damage the mainhand weapon has, despite being the exact same weapon. Offhands deal less damage because of their 30% damage multiplier, which means they deal .3 of their regular damage, or around one-third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
