Lets talk about the new Lynx.

What is the new Lynx design for? CQC... well its stats are very strange:

The Lynx has a hip fire when still of 1.5 and 2 when moving. (same as Trac-5)
The JAG has a hip fire when still of 1.25 and .1.75 when moving.

This means it has no extra bonus to hip fire when still or moving over the Trac-5, yet the JAG does... erm WTF.

Its ROF is 21.2% higher than the stock Track-5 and JAG yet its damage is 14.4% lower... so its DPS is only 5.9% higher than the Track-5 and JAG.

So you would think they actually designed it to have a edge in range combat over the Trac-5 and JAG as its CQC is actually worse... yet its ADS movement speed is 0.5 but the Trac-5 and JAG both have a 0.75 ADS movement speed and bloom is a big factor too.

Its bloom is the same per shot but because its ROF is 21.2% higher the Lynx will have a sustained fire bloom that increases 21.2% faster than the Track-5 and JAG, even more decreasing its accuracy.

In order to have the Lynx be a more CQC carbine over the Trac-5 you HAVE to change the JAG aswell.

The JAG should keep all stock stats as the Trac-5 except:
ADS accuracy when still changed from 0.1 to 0.8
ADS accuracy when moving changed from 0.3 to 0.25
ADS accuracy when crouched changed from 0.1 to 0.8
ADS accuracy when crouched and moving changed from 0.2 to 0.15
Keep its ADS 0.75 movement speed.
Small increase in hip fire spread.

The Lynx should keep all the stock stats as the Track-5 except:
Hip fire accuracy when still changed from 1.5 to 1.25
Hip fire accuracy when moving changed from 2 to 1.75
Bloom per shot changed from 0.1 to 0.5.
Keep its 909 ROF and 125 Bullet Damage.
Keep its ADS 0.5 movement speed.
Small increase in ADS spread.

This would separate the two carbines over the Trac-5, one has a higher ROF but lower damage with a hip fire bonus when moving that can ADS at a penalty of 0.5 movement speed and bigger ADS spread, while the other can move and fire ADS accurately with a ADS movement speed of 0.75 but a penalty of a bigger hip fire spread. This would make the Lynx more CQC, the JAG more ADS and the Trac-5 jack of all trades.

As it currently stands the Lynx is not designed as a CQC or ADS weapon, its beaten by both the Trac-5 and the JAG in ADS and the JAG has better hip fire than the Lynx and Trac-5. CRAZY!

Your thoughts?

But if you took the Jag with identical attachments you should rape more face?

I rape faces with both, but the lynx is a better bullethose and feels more stable at range so I prefer it to the jaguar.

its nice at most situation and the super high rof makes this gun very forgiving.

I have over 7k kills one the lynx and the trac-5 and nearly 4k kills with the jag, and i see it like this.

The jag has better hip firing indeed but suffers massivly when you ads it just does not feel right in ads imo. The lynx suprised me in both ads and hip firing. Its ads is very controlable and because of its rof missing one or 2 bullets due to poorer stats than the jag doea not effect it nearly as bad as people might first thing. I also love the trac-5 not as good when hip firing as the jag but better ads.

To conclude:

lynx = hip fire cqc and close to medium range ads

Jag = hip fire up to medium range and a little ads

Trac-5 = all rounder due to its lower rof (lower than the lynx) its hip fire cone blooms slower so its still good to hip fire to medium range and its a good ads gun.

Hope that helps.

In my car at the mo so sorry for any fat finger spelling errors.

Thanks sharpie, what's your thoughts on advanced laser to boost the hip fire up and a 3.4x to gain some advantage with its ADS and suppressor?


Jafacakes!

Laser sight is a given on all three carbines imo! If you're using a grip then you should be using the T5-AMC or (god forbid) the Cougar. I never go for anything other than the 1x. The reason being that if you are switching between a 1x and a 3.4x you will never get very good with either one, and will find it hard to snap fire which means seeing an enemy and adsing right on target, instead of adsing then moving your mouse a little to get on target before shooting. Being able to snap fire is the difference between 2 kills a life and 10!

PS: why do you keep signing "Jafacakes" at the bottom of all your posts lol?
