Arnuhld needs a buff

(Fap Fap Master) #1

I’ve noticed that the Arnuhld weapon gets easily outclassed by the Remburgh and the Hollunds. Arnulhd boasts greater range, but the range does little to nothing to this gun.

Arnuhld - 850 Range
Remburgh - 600 Range
Hollunds - 600 Range

Aruhld sure has more range, but lets take a look at the damage

Arnuhld - 77 HP
Remburgh - 96 HP
Hollunds - 88 HP

Thats a 11 damage difference compared to Hollunds and a massive 19 damage difference compared to Remburgh.

Firerate is the complete same.

Arnuhld holds 1 and 2 more rounds compared to Hollunds and Remburgh respectively.

What I reckon the Arnuhld needs is either

  1. Decrease spread of shotgun and decrease the falloff damage.
  2. Increase the damage (highly unlikely)

I didn’t know that the Ahnuhld-12 was the worst DPS in the game along with Tolen MP. This said, I am not sure if it really needs a buff.

I wouldn’t mind a even more reduced spread though.

What you miss is that the ahnuld has a tighter spread and better damage falloff already. That means the ahnuld will overtake other shotguns at range. I.e there is a range when the ahnuld will still only need 2 shots to kill someone, while the other shotguns need 3 shots. Reason is their pellets get already hit by the damage falloff and more important the wider spread means more pellets don’t hit the target.

Contrary to other shotguns you should skirt the outer edge of short range with the Ahnuld.

Increasing that effect further is not that simple (they did that once already), because sooner or later you increase the effective range to a point where it would dominate midrange battles (which belongs to SMGs/ARs).
