Marksman and bolters rifles
« on: March 19, 2021, 09:22:01 pm »
Why this game dont have a niche between sniper and assault rifle such as marksman or it's predecessor bolt-action rifle?
1. It shall have lower melee and move penalties
2. low damage range and damage between sniper and assault rifle
3. big crit chance or big crit damage modifier
4. It should be hit and run weapon aimed to chunk off enemies in 1-2 hits, so it shall be combined with something else to be viable.

in my expirience, with right build, both sniper and assault rifles can tears through anything, pretty much. If you have something, that can combine both playstyles - that could be too broken.

for example, if i understand correctly, what you suggestin, is a sniper rifle with lower base damage and lower move penalties. But this could easily be just a plain better sniper rifle! because base damage is not so important when you get right perks :)

BUT - getting something like a bolt-action rifle, maybe as a legendary, sounds reaaly cool. Whith its own, unique playstyle :D
