cultist sorry but u are a noob, u dont know anything about the last changes so please dont write anything, u cannot take 2 psycho anymore. The max DR which u can get is ca:bh 40+15 psycho and forget perks there is many other more important ones.
The thing killing avenger is DT + 55% DR. Chosen soliders made a test with Solar and what he says and what they say are 2 diffrent things, on one side u have a dev who ( propably have never fought during any TC or bigger pvp fight ) on the other side u have old pvp players who know how to play, and stop talking about BRB every single BG has both these perks. Last time in gecko when we fought against "black hands" i had 3 or 4, 1 hex battles, i had ca:bh and avenger vs ma:mk2 + lsws, at ppoint blank they hit me more than i hit them ( there was no critical hits at that time ) every single time i hit them for 135-140 while they hit me for 150-155 i won every single skimrish thx to my ap not my gun, and people who say that avenger does 300 dmg supposed to go out of their caves they know nothing about this game.
about plasma rifles - many times u have close combat battles by corners or through doors, and this is where plasma simple rox, avenger or any other bg cannot 1 ko kill ur opponent even if u are the lucky one and hit ur critical (140-170 dmg) ur enemy can simple hide behind a cover and use 1 or 2 SS, u waste ur ammo and tell me how much u can take 500 ? 800 ? its only a few burst during longer battles most of the avenger users is out of ammo in no time and all they do is wasting opponnents super stimpacks, at the same time even if ur opponent have the stonewall perk u can 1 hit 1 kill him with ur plasma rifle if u hit ur 2xx max bypass hit or any knockdown or knockout, through the doors most of the time u have 1 hex against the other hex battle and game mechanics dont allow other people shoot at the guy inside, so most of the times knockout means death,
oh and ammo its easier to take 50 mfc on you than 30 x 50 5mm ammo and think about crafting it ,,,,, OMFG ,,,, 1500 5 mm ammo means 5 x 1h 20 min, yes indeed avenger is the toy gun and the guy who did the settlers thing supposed to do it for the next 10 years every day for 10 hours a day,
nice block of txt i hope i shed some light on the problem
and one more thing i like the longer battles, at this time armors mean something u can see the diffrence if u put a ma:mk2 or ca:bh on you the problem is u only see it against avenger, plasma rifles lsws and other critical hit weapons supposed to be nerfed if u compare them to the top1, the most expensive gun in the history of the games the avenger
