The meta is busted

Triple M, 2 model, 1 auto, 4+ movement gadgets, 3x defib, demat/heals

It sucks to play against, and is pretty much a requirement for ranked competitive play.

I'm a soloQ diamond light- and it's never been this bad. The model shotty damage model is perfect for burst damage and teamshots, 1+ 4 fcar bullets and a medium is dead, 1+ 1 fcrr bullet and a light is dead, 2 + 4 fcar bullet and heavy is dead. All body shots, the team doesn't even really need to ADS. Just pepper with an automatic or clean up the residual model's dmg. The pairing is crazy strong. Use 2 models and you can instantly kill almost everything, and use the auto to clean or set up the 1 shots. The burst damage is insane, strong as an RPG- don't need to ADS, don't need to headshot.

Defib- someone makes an oopsy? Bring em back. It's like having 2 extra teammates waiting to be tagged in- adding 300+ health to the teams pool of HP. Most OP gadget in the game. A goo grenade or demat, and some defibs can make a 1 v 3, a 3v3 in no time.

The heal beam- most precision weapons have this weird extra bit of health left over after nailing a wicked string of headshots- leaving the other guy 1 shot. Well with heal beam youll need 2 extra shots- hope you didn't try to chase that potential pick you got with that well placed skilled heady. You may just get body shot'd to death by 2 mediums while the other heals instead. Also it allows them get back in the fight faster- making the light classes advantage of quick healing for hit and runs pretty much obsolete.

Medium movement is insane. At any time they can launch themselves 50m+, then demat to better cover. Zip + pad let's the whole team move faster than lights. For the micro movement- wouldn't worry too much. Medium is not that much slower than a light, and the cqc works to your advantage thanks to the model team shot.

But what really irks me is the slight buffs to the other classes that would destroy this boring ass meta. Glitch grenade buff, shield buffs, light specialization cool down buffs. Everything that has been NERFED. Wth embark. Stop riding medium dick. It shouldn't be the best class for DPS, movement, and utility. It's specialization should be to SUPPORT the other classes- not replace them.

Edit: lol at the light hate. All the assumptions that I'm bad or whining because I'm a light in ranked. Like bros, I play other classes- just not running M this season. I'm not partial to any particular class- I just refuse to run the meta this season, it's dull. This post is how the medium class has made the other classes irrelevant. It's pretty much CoD out there. (I have this theory that CoD ruins every fps game community as the community demands this and that or the devs chase market trends until it becomes CoD. CoDification. RIP Halo

For those of you reporting your casual experiences in QC and WT- happy for you. I know it's more diverse for class pick- and so is the skill ranges, which is why other classes work better in QC and WT. However as time goes on, the player base dwindles, and people learn the game even more-you're going to see the meta more and more often. These issues only get larger with time if left unchecked.

Some y'all self reporting when you can't win against m11, particularly funny because the XP5 was nerfed for y'all already and the m11 is what remained. Sword is the only mildly busted thing in lights kit- but it'll never be as good as having another gun in a mediums hand. You can kill a light with a shotty before it crosses a doorway. Land yer shots.
