On my feedback form for last weekends test server, I told them it was OK the way it was. Fire rate was good, damage was good, etc. Sadly you have to tell them that when something actually sucks to hopefully offset the idiots on the TS that say it was way under powered. These morons don't get that if they complain too much about a weapon then Pixonic over corrects it and makes it insane (although they do this on their own as well).
So anyways, here's a manni video uploaded an hour ago focusing on the revised heavy tulu (the Avalanche). Fire rate greatly increased and reload speed jacked way the ?fluffernutter? up....
Keep in mind this is at level 8, at mk2 level 12 it will be a nightmare, a 500m nightmare!
RIP, knife fighters.

I thought the Avalanche was kind of overpowered, even with it's ridiculous reload. I thought range, damage, and reload should be lowered, but then it would be a weaker Exodus. There's already the Trident.

Sheesh, I won't watch the video because I find Manni to be really annoying, but I thought the Avalanche was fine and balanced the first time it appeared on the TS. I didn't get in on the last one so I didn't experience the "new and improved", but I have a feeling that's likely what Pix will put out. They need to REALLY buff this thing beyond what the Trident does in order to entice people to spend RM on it. The way it was originally, I certainly would not buy or even grind for it. But, if they've buffed it tremendously, I might consider grinding for it just because I know others will. Besides, I think the Falcon will do well with it.

It was powerful before as I said in another thread, and taking into account what it would have done at MK2-12 it could have been considered OP especially considering it's unload time; it just looked weak at level 8.
Now they've buffed it... 「fluffernutter」ing more mid-range splash campers to deal with, great...

Heavy version of a med weap should be ~150% of the med dmg. I haven’t played TS, but have been wanting a heavy Tulu for a while. But seeing as it will prob take a month and half to get to 12mk1, I’m not sure I’ll even bother. I’m already overstocked w heavy weapons,

I also was slightly worried when they said it would be buffed but I'm pretty sure they dropped its damage output whilst increasing its firing speed.
Yep, have a look here. Trident Fury still manages to take out Avalanche Fury which is pretty silly if you ask me.

Hang on a second - this just changes the heavy tulumbas to a... well, heavy version of tulumbas. The interesting thing about the previous version on test server was the huge burst damage - this latest version is meh. Joopiter what am I missing that makes you say this is stronger?

The Avalanche has noticeably more burst damage, so in Live server it would unload then walk back into cover if need be; but at mk2-12 it probably would have destroyed the enemy fury or at least knocked a trident off. Hard to really judge it until live server release though; plenty of items have looked weak on TS only to be OP on Last Stand. Guess we will see, but to me Avalanche looks like it’s going to be too powerful.

Manni has completely lost touch with reality by playing his battle rec account.

It’s really lame how no weapons are unique there’s just a light medium heavy version of almost everything now
