"Full Auto Rifle" Ground Gear = Totally Broken

Some players might love the recent huge DPS increase of full auto rifles, butt honestly I think they're just totally broken right now. They deal more than double the DPS of a pulsewave and almost triple the DPS of any other ground weapon.
Example: My Lieutenant character is equipped with a crafted MK II full auto rifle, granted with triple DMG modifier, butt still it's ridiculous (171.5 DPS base)! Not even some of my MK XIV ultra gear can do that much DPS on my main! Sumfin must have gotten edited.

Did the compression rifle actually benefit from the firing rate increase? I assume that's what was intended to get it.

Now shaddup about the queues, it's a BUG
Full Auto Rifles were already the best single-target DPS weapon among all common types. It might be that the tooltip is wrong and the "decimated" part was just perception as the weapons were performing as usual.
But if the real damage is indeed that high, then I'd say it's a bug, and report it as such.
IIRC, all ground weapon damage is autohit unless enemy has dodge. I don't think many (if any) NPCs have dodge.

You'de think so but I found the full auto rifles to be slightly less usable that the minigun in it's exploit attack, which is 1 hit followed by at least 5 misses (unbuffed attack).

You must be using it in shooter mode, otherwise RP mode they don't miss unless there is no enemies left, while still completing it cycle!

Seems to be doing tremendous dmg these days.
I suggest you don't rely on it, as it is likely to be a bug.

Verified as in too much damage or the tooltip is bugged/wrong? Non-specific answer is non-specific.

Had to bring out my ol' full auto Omega, and have a good time on Dyson Ground.
Noticed the new Delta Infused ones seem to pack more of a punch, just tearing threw the dinos.
But yea Cryptic, please fix this as I'm sure it's not intended, but it's damn fun.
Yay! In before whining about them being nerfed when they never should've been buffed in the first place. :P
Verified as they are doing too much damage. There is a fix inbound, but I don't know when it will be live.
Thank you.

I guess now that my team is all setup with these, I'm going to be borked horribly when the fix comes in
While I enjoy the damage boost I guess it should be fixed. But Boo... :cool:

They only do 12x more damage than other ground weapons, since it's not 17x more we should be safe.
NOOO - Don't fix it. Its not a bug - its a FEATURE :-)
