Nerf the damage of the AVS-36-20 to 15.3

Right now, in BR 5, the AVS-36-20 with 15.8 damage is the strongest weapon by far. This combined with the body armor makes it completely unbalanced.

There is no reason for the AVS-36-20 to have the best fire rate, muzzle velocity, AND more damage than any other rifle from the other 3 factions.

Also, this increased damaged value comes from the Stalingrad campaign, so it has nothing to do with current game balancing.

I propose nerfing the damage to 15.3 to keep it in line with the others select fire weapons.

And hopefully, when the body armor will get removed from the soviets, everyone will have the option to play more than just soviets in custom games.

Nerf the damage of the AVS 36 20 to 15.3 damage ( current 15.8 )

I see more than 10 people voted No on this very basic change.
Also, not even one argument against it. Do you know why ? Because there is none. You can’t have 15.8 damage just because " Soviets stronk " is not an argument.

Like I said above, it already has the best ROF , the best bullet velocity and damage.
And as someone who plays both Germany and USSR a lot, I can tell you that AVS is way easier to control than the FG 42 II.

AVS also has the fastest aiming speed—0.85 compared to 0.8 for FG and T-20. Autohey is even worse.

Anything to make the THA my beloved more reliable pls :sob:

The AVS should be nerfed to a lower damage. Compared to the AVT, it offers higher ROF while still maintaining good single shot accuracy and horizontal recoil, so it is THE gun to use when winning duels. There’s a good chance BA won;t be removed, so in that case a soviet with BA and a reduced damage AVS is still a force to be reckoned with. It’s quite obvious that a high ROF can allow a gun to be competitive in COMP.

The outstanding advantage of the AVS is really a combination of its ROF and and accuracy in duels, the damage on top is just insult to injury for other factions.

Do you think “Lol” is an argument?

dont respond

hes looking for a reaction

if you respond, you will get into a pointless argument with insults which will lead to this topic being closed for insults

and your primary objective will not have been achieved

Maybe 14.8 would be better, Type Hei automatic didn’t get any buff in its damage

Your statement was so funny that all I could think of to respond with is lol.

Because regardless of the numbers… the ROF combined with its already high base recoil is anything BUT easier to control than the FG 42 II.

i dont see how the AVS is easier to control… and while im not the best at controlling it the fact i have an easier time with fg 42 clearly says that the avs is harder to control.

HOWEVER… the original point of your post is to nerf its damage to put it on par with the other ones… and i was not able to check their values at the time of making my vote… and i do agree now… i believe the reason it has +1 damage is because they wanted to give a reason to use it… in which case now there is a major reason to use it over avt and that it should be balanced out… so i digress on that front.

That’s because it has 30 rd mag

and the best dispersion iirc

This does not compensate for all his shortcomings.

such as? the lower damage?
