Fastest ranged attack?

as in least amount of time between activations.

Fastest: Most quickly http://lookwayup.com/lwu.exe/lwu/d?s...astest#r/83799

Come on you don't know what fastest means.

And to answer the op it's probably one of the fastest maybe tied with an tier 1 ice blast. Can't say for sure don't feal like looking at the moment

Neutrino Bolt has the fastest recharge (1.5s) and tied for fastest activation (1s). (There are a lot of 1s activation t1s due to the balance done for Defiance.)

Second place for recharge is Flares (2.18s).

Yup.


But I still find Fire to be the best at "sustaining" a solid ranged damage attack chain with lightning fast speed. Ice (with enough recharge) would be runner up imho.

Hmm. My memory is fuzzy on this but I beleive that this is not supposed to matter.

Someone might correct me on this, but I think animation time and recharge time is all there is as it relates to "damage speed"...or however you want to label it.

It matters cause some people like/dislike it for personal taste. My brother never wanted to create an AR corr or blaster because you couldn't see any bullets.. just a muzzle flash and some brass... it may seem insignificant to you, but it was a deal breaker for him.

He wanted to see the bullets flying through the air? No offense to your brother, but wouldn't that be less realistic?

I don't know really.. I seen game do it right.. IE Crysis and even older games like Max Payne. But MMO's and action games are apples and oranges so I'm not even gonna get into that can of worms..

But I like it the way it is and I think its fine. That aside, I don't think realism was ever the debatable subject here.. unless you meant:
"My brother wanted to see bullets fly out because just seeing a muzzle flash isn't realistic".. and if that was what you meant then yeah I agree.. but he doesn't really care that it looks real or not.. he was more of a "ooh shiny" player. He wanted flashy powers.
