Blishlock underpowered

(Mufftopolopolis) #1

7 shots. I tested this with a friend and without a headshot it takes 7 shots with the blishlock to kill Kira who has 90 health, t does only around 18 damage per shot, dropped turrets do more than that and have a faster fire rate on top of it. It’s obviously a futuristic mod off of the Kriss Vector model, is there a reason it has a like 401rpm fire rate? Why on earth would you give aura a weapon that’s obviously built for medium range combat when she’s a CQB class? Either give the Blishlock a firerate buff or don’t let the class use it at all. It’s worthless for her class.

Also it takes over 6 shots to finish someone off. why? Why does it take any gun more than 4-5?

The Blishlok deals the highest per bullet damage of any SMG in game. The slowfirerate is what balances that.
Also this game prouds itself on being highskill minded. Headshots will grant double damage and cut your bulletcounts into half. This also goes towards finishing headshot multiplier still works. Also melee weapons finish in one hit.

Aura gets the Blishlok to get a midrange alternative to shotguns for those that don’t like the jump in your face style (same with proxy).

It still has the longest TTK out of all the smg’s in the game at all ranges. It’s also the least accurate smg in the game. Before it was nerfed it was a gun that was hard to use because of the low RoF but was the best in the game if you had consistent aim. Now it’s simply worse than the other smg’s in pretty much every way.

Yes, this gun that shoots pistol ammo at a high rate of fire does do low damage. Apparently pistol ammo doesn’t have the same velocity or mass as rifle ammo. It’s almost like it’s only half the size of rifle ammo.

Anyways, I wouldn’t mind if the Blishlok recieved a buff but that’s only because I favor it with my Aura. It’s heavy hitting low rate of fire makes it as versatile as a rifle, but the recoil makes long range shots kind of a pain.

It’s kinda like a burst rifle, can be incredibly deadly, but takes a ridiculous amount of skill to achieve, and could just use an overall buff.

I have the blishlock on my Aura and Bushwacker and I love it. I don’t like the firerate however but you get used to it :stuck_out_tongue:

Except the burst rifles actually have very fast TTKs. The blishlok has the slowest TTK out of all the smgs so even if you are skilled it’s not a good option.
