And buff third iteration fire rate in PvP, it gets out gunned by everything at all ranges.
But pulse rifles are ruining PvP, especially outbreak perfected, redrix estoc and stars in shadow. At every range pulse rifles are killing in 2-3 bursts while every other weapon class cannot do the same.
Only at very close range phoneutria fera can achieve a faster kill, and the usual 1 shot shotguns which are once again making a resurgence.

Tbf its mostly the weapons stat that is the issue, if it enhanced handling and reload and kept ttks the same I would be fine with it. But now, depending if you have 100 weapons or above, your ttk will vary. As for pulse rifles, I see redrix still being used because its just a stat monster with decent perks but its a shell of its former self. Outbreak is fine, although I do wish headseeker wasnt so rewarding Honestly, pulse rifles are mostly balanced rn
