Where would this place the item DPS wise among other weapons? I would be down with a buff but 15-20% fire rate or 8-14 damage seems a bit of a large jump(again hard to tell just looking at numbers). Just want to make sure this weapon doesn't pull ahead too much.

For sure I mean im open to changes to it just believe that the Null and Alphas should have a little bit of a boost to their weapon

+1, make sure we balance it correctly but it would make sense for both of these groups to have a modified version of a gun in use.

-1 the fire rate of your weapons shouldn’t make you elite, the training and operations you go through should. Would rather see a utility buff of some kind rather than just making the gun shoot faster or hit harder. 

 

Additionally, Alpha ARC and Nulls already get the Westar and a Jetpack, along with other utility like armor packs, med kits, rocket launchers. Your kits are already better than all other battalions(arguably I suppose).

I am totally on board with the buffed version existing, just want to make sure its nothing too insane. I have no frame of reference based on what you posted. Please just give me a bit more in term of numbers to help make my choice. Or just leav

As much as I agree an elite squad would be equipped with elite weaponry regardless of tactics and training

Yeah that’s why Alphas and Nulls have jet packs, westwars, and kit bonuses. Only other WL that has a jetpack and a rocket launcher is a RCMD or MCMD WL.

Just because the suggestion isn’t meant for pvp doesn’t mean it won’t affect it

I think the damage are fine since 42 damage decent I think just a slight increase to the fire rate would keep it balanced

+1 I agree that the damage of the western is fine. But it would be better to have a slightly fast rps. But I can go either way.

Null westar makes a comeback 0.o

Stats definitely need to be refined which I’m sure the dev team can handle that on the backend tbh.

However I somewhat agree with Kaiser. I don’t think buffing your main gun will do much especially with how prominent perma weapons and store weapons are now. Other kit improvements would be cool to see instead like maybe an improved jetpack that holds more fuel or touching up on your kits since they are just regular battalion regiment jobs with jetpacks.

Regardless +1 just don’t be afraid to think outside the box!

I see no point in buffing the WESTAR-M5. They already have more than standard ARC troopers while utilizing their jetpacks. While the jetpack seems to not really be as special anymore, it's already a bump above the standard ARC troopers while including the fact that the kit they do have is infact special. While on top of having the jetpack, they have ARC kit and their class kit depending on the lore character that they are. The two units do not need a buff when they already shine better than other units in the server with jetpack + ARC kit + Class kit.
