so i got the TR116B off the exchange yesterday for 28mil (fairly cheap in my opinion, especially when i tell you how powerful it is) now this thing, this not-so-little beauty, is powerful as heck!
i did a small test with a friend, comparing it to my Fleet Elite Sniper Rifle, on a TAC, the result:
the fleet rifle, fully buffed, killed his shield and took half his health away.
the TR116B, killed him in a single shot, not giving a damn about his shields :P
all in all, the 116 is the new go-to rifle in my opinion, IF YOU CAN AFFORD IT
im planning on getting them for my entire away team.
*EDIT* also, i managed to one-shot a couple of Borg heavy tac drones
oh, and it's account bound

felt i had to do it. when i looked at it, it just looked too confusing with all the text crammed together. each to their own i guess
It's called a paragraph. Not that confusing.
whatever, outside of subject.
Something basic like starting a new sentence with a capital would have reduced the cramped feeling considerably.
Complete sentences with periods at the end help, too.
Grammar TRIBBLE squad unite!! :P
It is amazing how many forget about basics though.
english is far from my native, so i rarely think about it. could we get back on topic now, or do you wanna critizese my grammar even more?
Don't mind if i do.
As a non-native speaker myself i find myself paying extra attention to otherwise trivial things like grammar, because the lack of proper grammar makes the language more difficult to understand for other non-native speakers.
As for the TR-116B, i am unsure if a fully buffed tac is the best way to test it.
Fully buffed tac have a tendency to overcharge even moderate weapons.
This actually made me laugh.
i don't think they'll nerf it, after all, the reason it's this powerful is because people complained about how weak it was. the procs on mine is [Dmg][ShPen]X4, i don't think it comes with different procs than that
ehm,, it transports a projectile through the shields to the target at the speed it exits the rifle barrel. that was a no brainer that it wouldnt give a damn about the shields or its one shot capability. but now you mention it. its probably gonna get a hard nerf. :P
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
i doubt it, since they buffed it to this level, for being too weak, but i hope it stays this way, it's so much fun to use!
Im sure it will. Thats the reason i never buy anything until 1-2 months later... :P
exactly why it would be nerfed. the team like to have satisfied customers, not like they are now, down in the dumps as far as they are concerned.:rolleyes:

I was going to ask if you're new here, but then I looked at your post count.
"the team like to have satisfied customers", let me tell you this: this OP weapon is what they think will satisfy customers.
They're not gonna nerf it. Look at what they did to BO.

this weapon + the BO update made me a satisfied costumer, sooooo...
Was it a smart purchase? I don't even care. I have the original Target TR-116A and I've waited 4.5 years for this.
it's well worth it!

yep
That's a nutkicker right there. Not just those weapons but anyone that got those very expensive crafted equipment.
It was one thing before this bit of recent news to spend large amounts of EC to get some fancy Mk XII crafted equipment. Not in favor of that, esp. for those costs, but now knowing that it will be obsolete soon? I'd be kind of pissed. If I made a purchase like that, I'd hope for a lot of longevity from that buy. Mk XII was supposed to be it.
Well, not anymore. Start saving guys, start saving.
they stated in Vegas yesterday that none of our ships/MK XII equipment will be obsolete, in any way.

Given the lies and insults that came with 9.5, until they prove it, I take what they say with a grain of salt.
As far as we know, their idea of "usefulness" could very well mean that Mk12s will be as useful as Mk10s are still useful right now. And mind I remind you that Ultra MK12s are the same as Rare Mk14s. So getting a VR MK14 will obviously be superior.
