Forum:Tesla cannon needs a tweaking

Does anyone else think that the tesla cannon needs to be tweaked.The ammo to damge ration is far too unbalanced to be left unchecked.Each shot consumes 40(45 with unique variation) EC packs,which is just unreasonable.A simple solution to this problem would be to make it so that it they keep that damage the same but make it so that it uses 25(at the most)EC packs instead or to keep the ammo consumption the same but something about it changed so that the 40-45 EC pack drain is worth it(probably damage).

There are better weapons to spend EC Packs, isn't? :D The Plasma Cater is a better option if you want something "heavy", for example. But adressing your comment, I disagree, the Tesla Cannon and the unique version are not for using in a single enemy, they really shine when targeting clusters of enemies, so they have to spend more ammo. If you want to try, go to Scorpion Glutch (or when doing Bleed Me Dry to Goodsprings Cemetery) and use the Tesla Beaton, you will see that many scorpions will be hitted at the same time with only one shot when they are close one of another. This weapon also have critical hit of X2, so it's better used in conjuction with Better Criticals. Brfritos 06:47, January 16, 2011 (UTC)
