AKIMBO is OVERTUNED and NEEDS a NERF

[Zirichel]

Title.

Akimbo is too strong. It needs an accuracy drop off at range. It's too accurate and too high damage. It packs a punch at long range and the damage should drop off as well over range. More than it does. Not fun to play against.

pretty much lol.
its like "oh heavys can use their arsenal again thats a problem and a big no no cause now i cant say heavys suck."

Lol nice try, but not accurate. Heavies could use some help, but akimbo is slightly overtuned. The other things could use some buffs. I don't understand why people are mad about the RPG one tapping, it's en explosive projectile that should be both destructive to the arena and obliterate players. It just needs an adequate cooldown and accuracy loss over LONG ranges.

They could also use some more weapon variety. Which the Akimbo does, but it's just a little too strong. Emphasis on a little.

Your take on the RPG is kinda mind-blowing you clearly don't know how abusable this sh1t was. Also if you don't see the problem behind it one ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ something I don't even know how to help you. If you ever decide to play ranked you might understand that.

the weapon is very inaccurate even in ADS, and heavy can do very little to deal with the other classes bunny hopping, dashing, and zipping behind. Good heavies are still using melee and flamethrower

could have fooled me. looks like after an entire season of flame thrower most people want to get away from it. ive seen a single flamethrower user so far and it wasint even on PS.
and the only heavy melee i seen was from myself.

No you are absolutely right. Nerf the heavy some more. I totally saw 3 guys today out of 5 games today playing heavy. One more good nerf and that should wipe them out. Good call!

Nice sarcasm, learn to read and you'll see that my responses only call for a small nerf. Also, Heavy is annoying in plenty of ways, this one is just a little overtuned.

the weapon is overtuned in the sense that the Heavy shouldn't be doing so much damage while also having multiple shields and the largest health pool.

People are obviously failing to see that. and LOL to anyone saying rpg is bad now.

Multiple shields? Dome is down with 1 rpg/nade, Mesh shield is slow and 1 time use only, L can dash through it with sword and 1hit, barricades are also nerfed to ground- 1 nade/mine/cl40 and its gone.
Players complaining about heaviea are totally clueless...

The dome shield could use a buff.

I've played ranked and I haven't experienced many RPGs, so... not sure what you mean. RPGs are literally propelled grenades. I've been killed by regular thrown grenades lots of times, so it checks out to me.

I totally agree they should nerf the Akimbo. I actually saw 4 heavy's playing today and with one more nerf we should be able to get rid of them all. Lights FTW!

rpg also sucks now

have you stopped using it tho?
i dont think ive seen a single heavy put the rpg away cause of the nerf.
so does that mean its bad... even tho everyone is still using it?
or is it just not as great as before but still good to always bring.

cause its not just a damage weapon. its a tool to shape the environment from range and remove cover. its the most versatile gadgets in the game for heavy of course they are going to use it

oh i know. just annoying to see people say rpg sucks when they are probably still using it. like clearly it doesnt suck that much.

It's not the akimbo's,it's a light players low health pool + getting stuck in a bad place with no way to run away with dash or grapple on cool down.

No self respecting med or heavy complains about them.

Btw akimbo users still have to kill mediums and other heavies that have more health than lights do,that also might be getting healed.

So yes plz nerf whats finally a decent weapon choice for heavies.

I wish lights would just go away already.

This is more of a fair point. But I still think they're slightly overtuned. I don't understand what isn't to be understood about tad or slight or just a little bit of a nerf. It doesn't need to be destroyed. I like the Akimbo they're fun to use.

Not sure if this is sarcasm, but I don't agree. Heavies shouldn't be gotten rid of, but I don't like playing them because of how slow they are. Their kits still function.

They could use some help though.

Uh... have you tried ADS on them? They're pretty accurate.
