The Plas-1 Scorcher.
Anybody agree with me when I say it could use 3 extra mags in reserve?
9 reserve mags might sound like a lot, but the Concussive Liberator already has 10.
150 shots, up from 105, just sounds nice to have.

No.

Scorcher is more powerful then Liberator which is why it has less ammo.

Liberator is a joke of a weapon, I wouldn't chose it over Plas even if it had 20 mags.

I mentioned the Concussive Liberator as a reason for why it's not obscene to give the Scorcher 9 magazines, because there's already a weapon that has more than that.

I wasn't saying anything about choosing the Concussive Liberator as a primary weapon.

The scorcher is the dream weapon, it needs something to not be total perfection...and yes, that's ammo.

105 to 150 just doesn't sound like that major of a change to me. That's not even a 50% increase in ammo stock.

Nah, it works perfectly fine as it is, don't need it to be a do all be all weapon. Oh, obligatory "skill issue".

I think so too. It'd be nice to have. It's not like people who are meta are ever going to change their minds soon. I personally like the LIberator handling so I use it. An ammo buff to other weapons won't change how I love my bullpups.

You can't even call it a skill issue because I don't even have the Scorcher. I've just seen people use it and it seems to run out of ammo really quick.

105 shots just isn't a lot of shots, even if every single one of those 105 shots kills something.

Well yeah thats the whole drawback, theres gotta be a point of balance. The scorcher can 1-2 shot on the body regular bots and can 2-3 headshot all types of devastators. It's not meant to be a spamm weapon. You most likely are seeing players that just spray and pray.

The reason they are running out of ammo is because they are just using the explosion damage to kill the enemy instead of aiming at any vulnerable point, something I'm guilty of myself. When I actually try aim the ammo economy is fine.

If it fired 10 per clip I would be satisfied, as the number of coils, visibly, on the front of the scorcher would match the numbers of shots fired. It would bring feng shui and an over arching 'design' to the weapon.

It was great at 12, it preforms just the same at 6 tbh, just have to reload more often.

I would not complain when we get more ammo but i think the plas 1 does not need it that bad, you only have 105 shots but they do damage, 3 shot a devestator is just good, you can even shot the at-rt ( i still dont know the real name)

And if you use a support weapon like the amr or autocannon, you dont run out of ammo fast
