smallbore doesnt make you hit harder, it lets you extend your range before damage falloff would take effect. i do not argue that i argue that the average range you will engage in the crucible will not often exceed the range falloff point of the clever dragons base range. if you are, your playstyle would better suit a scout honestly. its VERY easy to stay within that engagement range. hell on that windows court map i could still map people for full headshot damage from across it with my roll (no range perks)
