The benelli even beats the Archangel... Make them atleast capped at 2500-2650 damage...
And as for the Taser, while I dr00l at it - Its basically ALMOST the same as the DEFILER, Minus the 500 hull damage it had... It shouldn't deal 6K damage... Make it kinda on base with the Del Cid.
But this also brings out Escalation...
Cops use Semi-Auto's, Robbers use Automatics
Cops use Kevlar, Robbers use armor piercing rounds
Cops use their APC, Robbers use an RPG
So Sooner or later the Pirates would adapt...

We will remember - We do not Forget - We do not Forgive
when its only about shield damage... any police can buy and use debilitators. - when its about a special weapon, i d much more like to see a gun with a CD component ( if its possible to add that to an energy gun )
Robbers using RPGs? This is Police work we're talking about, not Iraq. As for escalation, well unlawfuls have things like VHFs and Gunboats and ....other, bigger ships.
Quote:Its hard to enfore the police only thing, if you could, then it would make great RP for police but might make them a bit overpowered.
Put police only on infocard; if you see them on non police ship, ss and report. Making police overpowered? I can tell you from patrolling the flow of contraband through Bretonia in a hussar that the police need some boost.
to be honest - i really think we have enough shield busters. - the once unique corsair weapon has experienced an inflation across all sirius. - not only have the outcasts a more efficient heavy version now, but the civilian versions are almost equal - if not better, due to the 750 ms.
a police only weapon won t work. - look at the blood dragon. a ship cannot be restricted more than that in the ID... still, you see outcasts and mercs with it. - all of them were RP deals. - so no need to complain there.... but players will find a way to justify the use of a weapon that is otherwise overpowered.
( example, blood dragon with outcast weapons ) .... or think of an avenger with very strong shieldbreaker guns. - and there are plenty of explanations how the military gets hold on police weapons.
Energy draining weapons would suit better to the term Taser. Render your opponent useless by sucking away all their energy. They can't fire their weapons etc. It's a simple thing to do.
Not good idea at all . Why ONLY POLICE can use them ? what about military forces like navy or others ? :angry::nono: :angry:I don't like this... make them available for all lawfull forces all the lawfull forces need them not only the police !!!
Also the guns that Liberty has , lets say the one class 9 Vengeance mk V should be better. That gun shouldn't be class 9 it should be class 7 or 8 . I think it is the weakest gun from all the guns in the other 3 houses
I would suggest a sniper tazer, low refire, extreme range, fast projectile speed, and a sniper hull breacher, same as above, but for hull.
as for internity, quit it. Police has a right to exist, at this moment they are pretty much worthless in their real role, that is counter smuggling. This has fallen to the big guns of the navy,. which it shouldnt have hapenned at all.
edit:
the reason for sniper weaponnery is, maybe as you've guessed, for counter smuggling tactics. Running away from police authority might get risky finally...
Police are restricted to light fighters with class 8/9 weapons only right now. Their primary job is to take out pirates and smugglers in house systems; almost all of whom are using vhf's, gunboats, and advanced trains. The police light fighters simply dont have the firepower to take them down.
The navies and militaries may not have access to weapons as good as these, but they have access to class 10 guns, have more than 4 weapon hardpoints on their ships, and can use bombers for heavy firepower (not to mention capships).
If these are restricted to police only, it gives them a much needed firepower boost, without overpowering the other lawful forces or the pirates who wouldnt be able to get their hands on these guns.
