yup exactly , i can tell you already through that avenger minigun > anything in pure dam output both low armor with FMJ and high armor with AP bullets
LSW loses basicly cos its ammo doesnt hold AP perk , but on the other hand it has 4 times better accurency
ATOM if you hop here by any chance can you share some more pseudocodes ?^^
like HTH / melee calculations (do power fist benefit from Haymaker etc..)
also the range calculation for thrown ...
and it would be nice to know how does encounters work - the effect of outdoorsman / perks etc ;]
4 times better accuracy? :/
LSW is like shooting an avenger .. except you use AP vs bluesuits and JHP vs BoS CA. In fact even a normal minigun is better with its specialist ammo. (Of course this is different if they have toughness, which is very handy vs miniguns and they are using JHP)
For example:
Avenger using JHP : LSW vs Bluesuit without toughness = 1.7:1
Avenger using JHP : LSW vs Bluesuit with 2 toughness = 1.6:1
Avenger using JHP : LSW vs Metal I without toughness = 1.1:1
Avenger using JHP : LSW vs Metal I with 2 toughness = 1:1
Avenger using JHP : LSW vs CA without toughness = 0.9:1
Avenger using JHP : LSW vs CA I with 2 toughness = 0.8:1
Of course you could just load AP ammo and ignore toughness, but that may not always be an option

How would haymaker benefit a powerfist?
Range for Thrown is 5* Str up to a max of 15
Outdoorsman just affects WM speed, you still get the same number of encoutners - you just travel further in between them
