  • It isn't "unplayable" to go up against, it's the fact that you're most likely trying to out-duel it with a primary. You aren't supposed to out-duel Erentil with a primary. You have summoned me.

  • As I said in another post, while it is irritating to get mapped by, it is not overpowered, it’s problem is EASE OF USE. Any player can pick it up and do well. But it’s easy enough to counter that I wouldn’t consider it OP

      The gun does need reined in a bit. I think a lot of the people who get 'cross-mapped' by it are usually low health in the first place. That being said, it's a bit too consistent at ranges that are pretty much the average engagement distance. [b]But what do you do to fix the problem?[/b] - a straight nerf would anger a lot of players and make an entire archetype unusable - nerfing its range too drastically would put it into shotgun range, then it would just make more sense to simply use a shotgun. (Unless shotguns also receive a range nerf) - making it to where high-impact FRs can't roll with Backup Plan would be a start to making it a more high risk/high reward weapon. - fundamentally changing the Special Ammo economy in PvP (in my opinion, this is the best choice)

      Honestly if you're getting torn up by this gun you're not that great of a player and I'm not trying to say that to be mean it's just the truth you take it the high ends of comp and pull out the Erentil and see how well you do.... you're going to get wrecked because it's a slow charging Fusion rifle. Only very low end players think this is overpowered

      • Players who die a lot to erentil are usually straight lining/aping or have no radar awareness. Which one are you?

        • [quote]This gun is simply stupid on console needs to be nerfed some games it’s just unplayable going up against[/quote] The gun isn’t overpowered or broken. It’s strong, but there are a lot of strong guns. It has plenty of counters. Try not standing still out of cover, not pushing one in the open, and not peeking corners when you hear it charging. Stop aping you’ll be fine.

        • All it needs is a slight adjustment to bolt spread as range increases. All fusion rifles actually, not any one in particular. Just enough to make it so that a kill at max range is not guaranteed, but still possible, kinda like shotguns and their rng pellet spread. This gives using a fusion rifle some risk, something that it currently doesn’t have. Otherwise, they are fine honestly.

          • Nah, nerf recluse and mountain top and last word and all shotguns and Luna's again first. Then worry about fusions.

          • It needs to be changed back to a projectile weapon and back up plan needs to be removed from all high impacts. Problem fixed.
