Malice Beam and Corrupt Light should be nerfed

[Cake62]

Whenever you try using a balanced (physical personally, but any for this matter) build in mid-ranks, there is a 60% chance you will get thrown against some no-skill MB/CL spammer, and there's nothing you can do with it. These weapons are also some of the easiest weapons to max (They are rare, so getting,upgrading and ascending them take no time and are cheap af)

The Malice Beam is still bearable. you can counter it with any energy free weapon, so you still stand a chance. But the Corrupt Light, oh the Corrupt Light. Unless you have a heat-focused build, you're gonna be overheated in no more than 4 rounds. and from then on, they will just continue spamming the 2 lasers until you die. they also have fairly low heat generation and energy consumption, especially compared to their energy and heat damage on the enemy. and lets not talk about the fact that they have infinite uses.

then get more cooldown/regen, also resistance helps

malice beam isn't good anymore, the same to corrupt( its already bad)

nerfing them didn't change anything

They're definitely annoying at lower ranks, but idk if they need nerfs.

In ranks 5-1 they suck

We'll, they're meant to be an easily accessible weapon in the earlier ranks, which get phased out by e-m or l-m weapons in higher ranks.

Exactly, so no nerfs needed. Most people complain about a lvl 50 myth corrupt light when they have legy lvl 1-40 mods. People just upgrade weapons before mods generally

With all due respect, it sounds like your build is the problem. Please post your build here if you already haven't.

By the way, say what you want but dual malice beam can only get to rank 3 at best, while dual frantic ("frantic cancer") can get to rank 1. Dual corrupt light can probably get to rank 3 at most.

The problem players run into in middle ranks is that modules start to count, and often such players either were sacrificing their modules or don't want to go through the grind of upgrading their modules to mythical.

So show us your build, please.
