Swap Kira's Dreiss AR for one of Skyhammer's primaries

(majesticCape) #1

Dreiss AR seems to be based on FN FAL which is a pretty heavy gun and certainly not handled with ease by a lightweight girl. I believe it would make much sense for Skyhammer to get Dreiss while Kira gets Timik or M4.

Thoughts?

Nah, the Dreiss the awesome.

It’s a HK G3.
And thats propably the weirdest justification I heard, for getting a prefered weapon setup, into your prefered Merc.

The FN FAL and The HK G3 are standard issued weapons in quite a few armies around the world and some of them happen to have female soldiers. They seem to have no problems handling those big powerful weapons.

Kira can easily handle the Dreiss AR, thankyouverymuch! :slight_smile:

I served in an Army whose standard issue was a G3 variant and I can confirm what the above poster is saying (women also serve in the army where I’m from).

From a pure game-balance standpoint it also wouldn’t make sense, as Kira is a support character meant to specialize in medium to long-range engagements. The Dreiss fulfills that role nicely, and is a welcome semi-automatic addition to her otherwise purely burst-fire arsenal.

Agreed

Dreiss is honestly the best for her, she’s wicked powerful with it

I’d honestly prefer the M14 with Kira :stuck_out_tongue: But I’m a DMR junky.

Skyhammer gets full autos, Kira and Arty get mid-long range burst and semi auto rifles. They’re meant to fill a niche, with Skyhammer a much more combat oriented class, and Kira meant to support from afar. Arty at the moment is just kinda off, but he’s definitely still usable.

Would actually like the option of a full auto on kira. Sometimes I just can’t use burst weapons. doesn’t click well with my brain.

when you land those full burst headshots, though. pop pop pop, watching fraggers drop

Not just Fraggers, I’ve seen Rhinos get melted like butter in a microwave.

Personally I don’t see the point in Arty and Kira having two weapons that are basically identical (BR16 and Stark). It would make more sense for their 3rd weapon to be a slow shooting full auto gun instead

Trade the Stark for a mini PDP. Or just the PDP itself, I seem to be the only person in the world that uses that OP gun.

Actually, I think it would be cool to put the STARK scope on a Dreiss, and lower the fire rate by about 50%…or more, for the third gun to replace the STARK.

The thing is, full auto weapons are incerdibly strong in this game. If I could, I would use a damn M4A1 all day every day, it is the most versatile gun in the damn game, I swear.

I can still use burst rifles and the Dreiss, but I just get outmatched so easily by full auto ass rifles.
