SNAC instantly killing people was why this weapon got nerfed? I think this is a terribly wrong decision. Rax already explained perfectly. I will share my opinions here. SNACs are hard to aim with, and it requires skill to hit someone with it, especially ships below VHFs. People who are not skilled in fighters, people who go straight at their opponent hoping not to get hit by SNAC, is mistake of that player. That's when you must to dodge. Sometimes it's hard to dodge the SNAC if you face an experienced player, and this can refer to every other weapon in this game.
Another good point here that nerfing this weapon will only lose fun and players. There are some players that used SNAC against snubs for years, and which is why they can hit SNACs more often than people who don't use them for many years, depending on how much you train. SNACs were a fun weapon, weapon that requires some skill to be used correctly. Nerfing such a weapon will not lead to anything good, it will to people who were constantly crying of getting killed by someone who uses a SNAC, which is their fault. I got killed numerous times by a SNAC, because I wasn't dodging as I was supposed to, and I also managed to kill some people with it. You can't expect to be a professional without a training. 10 percent is talent, 90 percent is training, and people must understand that.
