Bad Weapon Showdown II: Krysae Vs. Disciple

Unless its goat cheese.

I don't think that was cheese.

Kits can make either of these guns good enough.

Nothing can help the Raptor or the Shuriken except ryncol and an airlock.

*cough* mods *cough*

I dunno. Would you like to shoot once every 5 seconds? 

If you do one of three things the krysae becomes decent:

1/  Ramp up the krysae's damage with an infiltrator
2/  Boost its RoF to make 2HK's acceptable using a RoF kit
3/ Use it on a caster to get quick kills with a prime+detonate build.

And if you do two of these things at the same time it actually becomes good. 
I went with options 2 and 3 and put it on my GE.


Regardless, the krysae is the better gun simply because the disciple isn't really a gun at all.
It's an asari sex toy you can use to beat people to death with.

Indra is underrated

It's the sniper rifle I took my pic with

I would probably have more tolerance for the Indra if the rounds weren't stupidly fucking bright explosive type BS filling up my forced scope use.

Otherwise, the gun has some potential, but since that will never be fixed on PS3, no Indra for me.

If we talk modding for a moment here, what would you guys think would be a solid buff for Krysae and Disciple?

Due to how client sync works, it does not work well if we mess with rate of fire or ammo, so we are limited to damage tweaks. After testing it's vanilla version for a bit, here's my initial idea for the Krysae:

Damage increased from 616 to 2000
Armor damage multiplier reduced to 0.45
Barrier damage multiplier reduced to 0.55
Shield damage multiplier reduced to 0.35

This might sound a lot, but this version would  be used in one of my mods, where enemies are significantly upgraded and health damage is less of factor. If you consider it's 35 rpm rate of fire, it's dps to armor is still lower than both of the Widows, tough it does have area of effect and should be pretty strong against enemies like  Collector troops or Phantoms, probably too strong. Actually now that I think about it this would wreck Phantoms. Ok, it's probably off the scale and that is why the original version was nerfed, so what would be better?

And using the same modifiers, how would you suggest tweaking Disciple?

For the record, Disciple base damage is 70 (88 dps), for comparison M-22 Eviscerator does 80 (64 dps) and M-11 Wraith does 147 (120 dps). 

It's interesting to notice that in addition to innate stagger, it has higher dps then Eviscerator but if I also remember correctly there is slightly higher spread. Maybe just buff it's damage to shields and barriers?

Lol.

The Indra is capable of killing things.

The Raptor tries to kill with kindness.

I know you are on console, but the games are not that different.... Was this a serious post?
