    Allow me to be afraid of this possibility. At high levels Railgun works exactly as it should work.

    Exactly as I said, a railgun buff doesnt sit right with me, since I KNOW it's a late game weapon.

    This sentence caught my eye in a instant,
    Bro!! No one said it needs buff.i m quite good at using it and dont need the noobs to use it better than me by a buff(which is the case of sniper,Any idiot can use it effectively).Why do you jump to conclusions!! Its a comparison and sniper wins the game fair and square
    I know very well how railgun works and it will never outshine sniper.

    Orpheus uses Dual sniper,/S\ uses sniper plus flare(Lets be clear flare barely affects sniper performance).They all are mid level P2W,dont tell me that they dont have decent railguns...


    And any damn shooter using railgun or not uses sniper for sure.

    Railgun is the best end game,but if you compare it to sniper,my friend! I will have to say you dont know how any of them works.

    (P.S.--- Dont judge based on you tube replays,they upload their 1 success video out of 1000s of games played)

    Lol don't you worry about either. This thread started off innocent. I only walked in when some peeps started to go on about balancing. In that case, they must mean only these two, no?

    Also, my point was the CREW TRAINING, which is easier for the sniper cannon. Are you talking about both weapons at their best(fully trained)? If you are, railgun is better.

    Oi, dude, wait up. I'd gladly prove my point with maths, but I'm tired today. Wrote 39 pages of theory, turned my brain to mush. Just hang on a few.

    @TheAntiSnipe being an inexperience railgun and sniper user yourself,You are not helping in anyways.The thread creator asked a question and i m helping him to make a descision and so are others

    If you think thread is stupid and you want to fight for buffs/nerfs(Which you seem to assume by yourself),We can do it elsewhere.

    Most important: @Alpha . don't scrap that leg railgun because of a discussion on the forum where most of the people state that it's less effective than sniper. Give it a try and, for god's sake, keep it.

    A maxed leg t5 railgun does 2586 damage per shot. A maxed t5 sniper cannon does (49% chance) 2445 damage by my calculations. A hair's worth of difference lol. Wow. @Babablacksheep I'm getting sloppy. How tho? Did someone miss something here?

    Leggy T5 railgun 3500 damage not 2500

    Leggy T5 sniper 45% crit chance with all epic perks not 49%

    Still sniper is better than railgun,Because of efficacy

    Do even consider aspect like relaod time,damage decrease,no curve projectile(High probability to miss),less projectile speed Or just damage of both

    Considering your reply i m to assume that you read none of my comments

    @Alpha . he js right,Sorry for negative comments! You asked for comparison and we gave our views.

    But i can assure you that Railgun is not a waste.Infact a 2nd best weapon relative to sniper.Scrap would be a big mistake!

    And also sniper is getting nerfed sooner or later,So well you are the luckiest person since you have other Long range beast with you

    Bless Rngesus!

    I told ya. Brain's mush today. Super long paper. Anyway. That's what I was shocked by. How can snipe be better than rail even in the endgame? Too damn much m8!!!
