Someone complaining that they have to many options and flexibility for their faction gear. I believe that is a problem that the other factions would enjoy having. Perhaps the Dev's will take pity upon the poor over equipped and over powered LSM faction and start putting in items for the rest of us poor red headed step children.
Naaa Fairies are good in the way they are now. Good balance, Dragons are dam good with double Melta granade, Avangers are fast and very good with the shurikens, I love Warlocks buffs, the way Eldar are now I like and enjoy that, both in killing Fairies for Slaanesh than play as one of them myself. To be honest I enjoy also playing Orks and grouping with DLB guys the faction I realy hate are the colored Locusts.. but it's ok, even though they are the most advantaged faction, they also have the losing card of countless mindless Chaos Spawn dressed like Loyalists
Useless weapons and mods aren't a SM specific trait. Orks have a collection of garbage weapons and mods that never get used.
Not sure what the issue is. I see it often as a vehicle counter paired with AV, and its annoying to fight back against if its just a driver and gunner versus even a grav and an AV. Having the option to use a utility weapon is different from having...say...a ton of straightforward shooty/explodey things, bugged up melee weapons, and a support who can't use a Shoota. All factions have a handful of things that are currently useless, but until I can use one the Grav-Gun seems useful on a case-by-case basis.
The Grav-Gun is nice. Use it if you're fighting wastes of oxygen who want to jam a Chainaxe up your behind, because it stops melee players in their tracks. Of course given how melee is right now, any gun stops melee in its tracks with one good D-Bash. More importantly though, it's a gun that benefits from teamwork. I will forever maintain that a Gravgun/Bolter dream team combo is the best thing you can possibly have in this game. Also it can stop tanks I guess, but why you'd do anything other than the meta of Melta Rambo is beyond me. Also, don't envy the other factions. Chaos insults us for worshipping a corpse while they freely worship a walking domestic violence charge and a garbage bag. Eldar are literal High Elves in space. And Orks aren't fight-y enough.
It also hardcounters the oh-so-OP speed of the Eldar... Yet they don't use it and whine about Eldar being too speedy... Dear LSM... you have a weapon that was pretty much put in the game to give you the ability to completely deny a specific faction their one advantage they have over you.
I also envy the others....which is why I have rank 5-6 across all 4 factions...so when I inevitably get frustrated with LSM teams being derpy regardless of how hard you try to carry them, I can swap to my eldar ork or pointy boy and casually and relaxingly play. The average "greeny" just seems to be more coherent on the other 3 factions.
Chaos can stop whinging about LSM toys when they pack up the ACs. Mastercrafted Grav with the MkII damage mod and recoil barrel is actually ok, a Bolter is probably better in nearly every scenario but it's ok.
