Eldar bloom on weapons is absurd

  1. Seriously, can't kill anything with an Eldar weapon unless crouched and aimed or extremely point blank(which in this case, just knife em).

    What is with this ridiculous spread? This is what thousands of years of advanced technology give us? I think Eldar weapons should be more accurate as a trade off to being squishier and(from what I gather) slightly weaker in DPS on their weapons.

    Also on a side note, why the hell can I only fire the Fusion Gun for like 1 second before full overheat??? How is this good design? Can't even kill a vehicle with that thing in a timely fashion.

    Yea, we really should have the most accurate weapons - speed and accuracy and good fashion sense - that's the Eldar way!

    Actually, Eldar are supposed to be masters of close range, according to Brent.
  4. Even close range, the spread on a Shuriken Catapult is appalling.

    Also I wouldn't really say Eldar are masters of close range, masters of FLANKING would be more accurate...

    I feel like close range "masters" should be Orks domain since you know...Orks. Which makes me feel bad for Orks because, lore wise, they're weapons are hideously inaccurate and I can't imagine weapons more inaccurate than the current Eldar weapons.

    Even still, spray and pray hardly seems like a "refined" way to fight.

    Yeah it's bad lol.

    Brent essentially said that although we will die faster than a marine, we will kill faster than a marine. So getting the drop on your enemy should dramatically increase your chances of killing them. Glass cannon ho!
  7. The fusion gun was nerfed because even with that 1 second of usage it could kill REALLY easy. But I agree, their weapons do 0 damage to anything. We only need a bit more damage on both the dire avenger and pistols. And reapers GOD LORD, PLEASE GIVE THEM SOMETHING THAT DOES ACTUAL RANGE DAMAGE.

    Please make the Shuriken Catapult on the Avenger fire faster, it's so inept right now. Actually, why does a Dire Avenger have a Shuriken Catapult in the first place, and not the specialized variant that the aspect uses, with improved accuracy for medium range engagements?

    Reaper launchers kill in a couple of direct hits.

    ...the only class that uses the Shuriken Catapult at this time is the Dire Avenger. Why create an Avenger Shuriken Catapult? It's not as if they deliberately made the Shuriken Catapult they currently use shorter-ranged because of it.
