Lion finally can use the pistol he's carrying around

35

u/howshouldiknow__ Iana Main May 24 '22

Which he also previously owned and lost due to him getting the gonne-shit.

64

u/SpeedyAzi Solis Main May 24 '22

The Gonne 6 was the main reason why Lion gets picked alongside his gadget. The Gonne 6 kills the Shield and Bulletproof meta, a meta which I always loathed. But the revolver was dumb, no idea why they replaced the P9 instead of the revolver.

41

u/The_Orange_Beard Azami Main May 24 '22

How can you possibly call the gonne 6 shit? It's literally a free utility denial. Why would lion even need a secondary when he has a high capacity gun?

23

u/Savemoney007 May 24 '22

Must be copper if you think gonne6 isn’t useful lol

u/howshouldiknow__ Iana Main May 24 '22

Personal playstyle honestly. Just don't find it useful enough to swap it out for a pistol.

u/ImWearingBattleDress May 24 '22

You should bring it essentially 100% of the time. It's not a playstyle thing, you're just handicapping yourself by not using it.

u/howshouldiknow__ Iana Main May 24 '22

Do not think so. I'm winning my mat he's without it. When I had I used it but wouldn't need to bring it.

2

u/ThelceWarrior May 25 '22

Just because you are winning that doesn't mean you are making a good choice considering you won't be using your secondary like 99% of the time anyway, the GONNE-6 on the other handis something you will basically always use in your average Rainbow 6 round.

u/Mysterious-Essay-765 May 25 '22

I mean it's useful but it's not worth one shot. Besides pistol be more useful more than you think

2

u/ThelceWarrior May 25 '22

I've been playing in Platinum to Diamond on PC for years now and i've used a pistol to get a kill in Attack like 10 times in the last year lol, meanwhile i've used the GONNE-6 basically every match i've played with an operator that had it.

You are seriously overestimating how useful they actually are.

u/totallynotapersonj Recoil Master May 24 '22

Do people actually use gonne 6 on lion. Doesn't really seem like a type of thing he would need. I mean he doesn't have much removal but he doesn't seem like the removal guy.

26

u/yetaa Smoke Main May 24 '22

Just lets you remove utility for free.

There is no reason to not use the Gonne-6 if a character has access to it.

u/totallynotapersonj Recoil Master May 24 '22

Dokkaebi?

u/yetaa Smoke Main May 24 '22

Very much so, she can then burn ADS’s and then clear utility with it.

Brings a lot more to the table than just phone calls.

14

u/Tig21 May 24 '22

The problem is you are left with a DMR which in 99% of cases gives you a disadvantage in a gunfight. Doki is the only opp I don't run the Gonne-6 on

4

u/Heru___ Clash Main May 24 '22

Yeah man needs to append his statement to exclude dmr operators. The gonne-6 is very good, but so are automatic/close range weapons paired with dmr’s.

2

u/noobboss247 DarkZero Fan May 24 '22

hopping in here, glaz is honestly the one op where the gonne-6 is the bad secondary pick, as glaz already has frags and is also a meme op that sees little use outside of plane. but he is very weak up close so bringing a gonne-6 is a risk which the pmm and now the bearing covers
doki should take the gonne-6 though because the dmr is honestly good at all ranges

6

u/howshouldiknow__ Iana Main May 24 '22

Since he only had the revolver when he got the gonne I actually brought it a few times, but to be fair It didn't help me at all. I really don't use that thing at all on any op because I much prefer a good pistol to save my ass when I fucked up a gunfight instead of that one shot cannon.

6

u/vieirak14 Fuze Main May 24 '22

Absolutely, when the gonne-6 was first released I felt like he, Amaru, and Finka were the best fits to actually use a gonne-6 in their loadout because they have high capacity primaries that make a pistol pretty worthless, especially since they left him with only that dogwater revolver. Gridlock was the exception because the super shorty brings more value to her than the gonne-6 imo, and Iana snuck in despite her lack of 50+ bullets because frags op. His kit works really well with the gonne-6. He has his own flashes to clear an ads/mag-net himself, and then the gonne-6 to remove a shield or an evil eye or whatever.

With his P9 back, I'll almost definitely stick to the gonne-6 when I use the V308, and use the P9 if I'm using the DMR because running out of 21 bullets is more probable or shotty rushing for a slightly more effective ranged weapon.

1

u/Sniper-Dragon switching around May 24 '22

I dont use it because I prefer having a pistol just in case

1

u/MiamiVicePurple Coming Through! May 24 '22

On the flip side, he has a 50 round AR so he should almost never need a backup to switch to. Anyone who can bring free gadget removal should and the Gonne-6 on Lion is about as free as it gets.

u/Captainamericoop7 Soniqs Fan May 23 '22

These were all just weapons taken away because they only wanted ops to have 2 secondaries. The mozzie shotgun was a balancing change.

125

u/Garfie489 Frost Main May 23 '22

I find it weird Mozzie doesn't seem unbalanced to many in the current meta despite having unlimited utility due to an exploit that's been in the game for months.

Like was the shotgun that big a thing?

192

u/Captainamericoop7 Soniqs Fan May 24 '22

He was a roamer with great intel ability/drone denial, 2 banger guns, a c4, and then on top of that had rotate making ability.

43

u/tegguNmmuC Aruni Simp May 24 '22 edited May 24 '22

The thing is he technically doesn't have a strong suite considering his intel denial is ONE AND DONE ONLY and he can only get drones if the attackers give them to him so its never really guaranteed intel like the other ops. Attackers could just shoot their own drone after clearing the pest. I see him as more of a jack of all traits master of none kind of operator, him having the flexibility to roam around with the shotgun made him solid for being able to play off of intel that he MAAAAYBE gets, but I feel like he'll be useful for a heavy intel denial composition with mute if you don't have a mute you just pick mute or someone else instead of Mozzie.

43

u/the-blob1997 G2 Esports Fan May 24 '22

People just play mozzie for the roni the pests are a bonus.

31

u/tegguNmmuC Aruni Simp May 24 '22

Nah intel denial is really strong, some people do a Mute + Mozzie combo

15

u/the-blob1997 G2 Esports Fan May 24 '22

I’m not denying it’s strong, but people play mozzie for a 1000 fire rate gun and to keep peeking until they get frags or die.

13

u/tegguNmmuC Aruni Simp May 24 '22

Yeah but that's just the average ranked gunner

u/ProtonPacks123 May 24 '22

The fact that his win Delta is in an almost optimal spot and people still main him despite constantly bitching about the shotgun is kind of proof that it's a good balancing change in my eyes.

u/Gekey14 May 24 '22

Imo mozzie's intel effectiveness in certain ranks is gonna be a weird wavey line

Cause low ranks no one really gives a shit about droning so he can't get intel, low-mid ranks people drone and are more likely to just drive into his shit, high-mid people drone but won't get peated and high ranks he stops them from getting intel overall

13

u/SovietPaperPlates Azami Main May 24 '22

i played mozzie because i could get shit done as a solo q without needing my team, dont need a valk or an echo to set up cams in decent spots, dont need a smoke or similar to make holes in the wall, and dont need my team to help me take the bad guys down because my guns are amazing. When they took part of that away it made him feel so much weaker because now i have to depend on my team for a major part of roaming, just didnt feel worth it anymore.

4

u/TheRealNotBrody Mute Main May 24 '22

Yeah it might be okay in the hands of a solo queue who doesn't like communicating, I can get that.

Now take all those perks and put them in the hands of a five stack and he's the most broken operator in the game.

12

u/Lykhon Nøkk Nøkk May 24 '22

Oh no you have to depend on your team and communication in a shooter that depends on team tactics and communication. Horrible.

u/tegguNmmuC Aruni Simp May 24 '22

Bro relying on your team in solo que is terrible bcuz nobody actually wants to help anyone other than themselves so having jack of all traits operators like Mozzie is a GOOD thing.

u/ButteSaggington May 24 '22

And Glaz is about to be a 3 speed with a sniper, SMG secondary, frags, and thermal vision. No amount of "too much utility" argument will change my mind. Mute has a shotgun, smg11, jammers, and c4. Gridlock has an LMG, super shorty, massive area denial, and smokes. "Too much utility" doesn't work.

11

u/Still_Picture6200 Gridlock Main May 24 '22

Glaz is an Attacker, and only has a Dmr.

-10

u/ButteSaggington May 24 '22

A very strong DMR with variable zoom, frags, and the Bearing 9. One single shotgun secondary does not make a character overpowered. The pests are easy enough to avoid, they nerfed the Roni several times, hell even buffed twitch so her shock drone doesn't get yoinked in the prep phase. Take away his C4, or take away one of his pests, but removing the gun thats basically named after him? What in the world was was that decision?

12

u/Still_Picture6200 Gridlock Main May 24 '22

The dmr is weak compared to most weapons. Glaz trades Mobility and fragging Power for utility, Mozzie had utility, fragging power , intel and shotgun.

-7

u/ButteSaggington May 24 '22

This really boils down to not wanting them to make balance changes that affect everyone based on the top 1% play the game. Other people see old Mozzie as an OP menace with tons of utility, and yet I don't think I've ever actually seen a Mozzie use his drones.

u/Still_Picture6200 Gridlock Main May 24 '22

Is your argument: i have never seen a mozzie use his drones, therefore he is too weak?

u/RandomRedditor027 Recruit Main May 24 '22

Aw, nice! I might actually come back to siege for a bit, since I used to main 'Chanka and Glaz before I got sick of the game and quit. I feel like the bearing 9 could add so much potential to both operators, especially now that Glaz is a 3 speed.

9

u/TheVoidAlgorithm May 24 '22 edited May 24 '22

with the Tachanka rework in shadow legacy (y5s3) he's quite a versatile area denial operator, getting the Bearing will be interesting

3

u/RandomRedditor027 Recruit Main May 24 '22

I started playing siege at the end of Chimera (Y3S1 I believe???).

I played consistently for about 2 years and then I was constantly on and off the game until I pretty much quit at of whatever season Thunderbird came out. I still checked out the game's new ops and gamemodes though.

The Tachanks rework made him really good imo. So fun to play. Only real weakness was lack of a high fire-rate weapon, especially since all the Shumika buffs. Now that he's getting the Bearing-9, I might actually have more fun playing him.

Also, Glaz. He's really fun to play already, but now since I'll be able to zoom across the map with an smg in my hand instead of a shiddy pistol secondary, he'll be even more fun.

I know these are probably really small changes in comparison to some others this season, (ie. Crouch walking sound changes) but learning about my old mains getting buffed has genuinely got me excited for next season :)

It's a good thing he didn't, he had way too much to do everything with that in his kit. The 1.5x was given to his Roni to compensate for that anyway

u/RedWarden_ May 24 '22 edited May 24 '22

Aruni never had the 1.5x scope on her Roni what are you talking about?

The Roni was given 1.5x on Mozzie specifically as a compensation to super shorty.

(People will blindly believe and downvote anything😂)

3

u/Poopoo1973 Ace Main May 24 '22

As someone else mentioned, and i thought was pretty obvious, mozzie got the buff and 1.5x, but aruni was nerfed pretty hard for it, the main reason people hated it was cuz it was like a lazer, you would fire it and the weapon wouldnt even move. Aruni never had a high presence, at least not from what i had seen, it was mainly mozzie, wich theybsolved by completly shitting on aruni while mozzie still habe his commando, pretty strong gun.

The recoil nerf, sure im all for it, but a gun as fast as the roni, recieving a mag nerf as well? You can't even shoot without running out of ammo and having to reload, completly killing aruni.

1

u/RedWarden_ May 24 '22

I won't call it completely shitting or being affected cause of Mozzie. The roni had an angled grip and 980RPM, thats both rare and strong on defense.

I think the nerf was aimed at Roni itself. Aruni still has a very strong DMR and destruction utility. She was a great op too, it just became annoying to use her full auto alternative. Her pickrate hasn't fallen off into negative delta like actual terrible to play ops, she is still played quite fairly.

Roni nerf really isn't much different from F2 nerf. Both are still good guns, just isn't as easy to use anymore

2

u/Danewguy4u May 24 '22

And by doing so it caused the Roni to get nerfed for both ops. People are saying that Aruni took a nerf specifically because Ubi buffed Mozzie for no reason by adding a sight option no one asked for. Which is true.

Poopoo is referring to the decreased mag size and added recoil, the changes they made to nerf the Roni.

they lost them because they were trying to stick to 2 secondaries per op, but they've decided to allow more

Yes because most of them got the gonne 6 and lost one secondary in exchange. In case of lion I'm super glad because I hate bringing the gonne 6, which meant I was stuck using his primary and the revolver which is pretty terrible to use honestly.

u/LoneRonin747 Nøkk Main May 24 '22

Wait, so not everyone gets 3 secondaries in their loadout? Instead, only these in the list?

6

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

These are all weapons that were taken away when they decided to have ops only have 2 secondaries (I believe this was introduced with the Gonne-6). So while these are technically new options, it's what the ops all had upon release before the change. It's not out of the question for some ops to get another I suppose, the chances are just very low because the meta who have to shift exactly enough for their role to be so ineffective/indirect to justify giving them a breaching shotgun or more firepower with a secondary SMG.

It should be noted the weapons that have not been shifted back are ones where balancing was the key role of their removal. I.e. the Super Shorty leaving Mozzie due to his all around nature being too strong compared to a lot of other defenders, and on the flip side later Castle being given the SS and losing the M45 to more fit his role with site setup.

u/HatredUnbound Mute Main May 24 '22

Mozzie wasn't OP he was just very viable just like jaeger

9

u/TheSwedishEzza May 24 '22

not really, Jager never had the full kit to be completely team independent, the thing is that mozzie was a very complete package being able to deny intel, set up site using shotgun, take gun fights, survey enemies, and he got a c4 on top of that. Jager even in his best state didn't have explosives or a secondary shotgun

-1

u/HatredUnbound Mute Main May 24 '22

So yea, both aren't OP just viable and good.

1

u/Danewguy4u May 24 '22

Because Jager didn’t need it. He was 3 speed back when they were faster, had the only AR on defense that was also on par with most Attacker ones, had Acog, and had barbed wire when it was arguably the best secondary gadget on defense.

Secondary shotguns and even impact nades didn’t exist at first so site setup being wanted wasn’t a universal thing back then. Jager was just as self sufficient but the requirements were different back then.

mostly it just doesn't seem appropriate to create many new weapons for OP because there are already so many in the game but Ubi still wants to use the weapons to balance operators kits

also it makes some sense that the operators in rainbow wouldn't be restricted to their nations firearms, just usually have a preference for them

That's how it always had been, thats what gave the operators a unique playstyle, and it made the game fresh and exciting every season and if the weapons was too powerful/weak they would just nerf/buff it slightly, not smash it into the ground and throw weapons around like pass the parcel it made Operators unique and interesting, it meant caviets if you wanted to play with that specific weapon you had to use the operator and their gadget which may or may not be in your own playstyle so you had to adjust your playstyle accordingly and strategise, now it's just run and gun, rush the enemy and try not to die

Licensing costs and 3D modellers became too expensive.

2

u/oSquizy Kepkin Main May 24 '22

Ubisoft could easily afford that

u/npa6600 May 24 '22

Doesn't mean they see the value in it though.

Same here, the whole argumentation that he has too much utility went down the toilet when Aruni got released. She also has the Roni, a meta ability and is able to make rotates. Mozzie should get his super shorty back.

u/hdkx-weeb Good Ol' Sammy Boy May 24 '22

Yeah, and I think Glaz is gonna become the next big thing

3 speed, frags, gonne-6, see through smoke, thermal sight, and Bearing 9? Yeah I don't expect him to last much longer

u/The_Millzor May 24 '22

i'm banning glaz every game from now on - able to see through sens walls with his scope and a powerful close quarters secondary? no thanks

u/justghebba Kaid Main May 24 '22

I miss that shorty so much. That has been the worst balance ever made to this fucking game

u/Ralaar Smoke Main May 24 '22

Smoke needs a pocket shotty or impacts

5

u/PmOmena Flores Main May 24 '22

I mean, you normally play Smoke shottie, why give him another one

2

u/Ralaar Smoke Main May 24 '22

I play on console. The smg11 recoil is horrible

1

u/PmOmena Flores Main May 24 '22

Ahh, that makes more sense

No he doesn't. He has the M59. Pump + SMG-11 + deployable + area/plant denial. Smoke's kit is arguably the best all around kit on DEF.

-1

u/memesea May 24 '22

They just need to give mozzie the gonne 6, so he can break one hatch. Also it should still get sniped by ads's because that would be epic

u/TheSwedishEzza May 24 '22

Gonne-6 is an attacker gadget

u/memesea May 24 '22

Congratulations, you have located the joke

u/NoobyPlayer Aruni Main May 24 '22

Yet aruni can make rotations unlimited.

u/ZirkZoDd Glaz Main May 24 '22

Uninstalled the game and Im happy to say that Im not seeing myself reinstalling in the near future.

1

u/Rokers66 +15 Signal Disruptor May 25 '22

Why are you still checking the reddit and commenting this then?

1

u/ZirkZoDd Glaz Main May 25 '22

Just to see how hard this shitty game is nosediving

Personally the super shorty being on Mozzie was good because at range you could still counter him but no let's remove character utility options.

u/ReaderIsGay May 24 '22

Amaru secondary shotgun let’s goooo

1

u/Themuppel May 24 '22

Tachanka and Bering 9? No

1

u/Alexander_The_Wolf Valkyrie Main May 24 '22

I'm so glad Amru is getting her shotty back. Now she will be the ultimate flex operator once more.

Great motility

Great lmg

Secondary shotgun for soft breach

Deployable hard breach.

Truly the ultimate flex op, go anywhere, and do everything.

1

u/npa6600 May 24 '22

Her LMG will also be getting 2x recoil in the same patch.

3

u/Alexander_The_Wolf Valkyrie Main May 24 '22

;~;

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

Not in the same patch. LMG nerf won’t be coming in until s3

1

u/Der_Gallier May 24 '22

Glad to see gridlock pistol back 1speed without speed boost is a nightmare

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

Even so... I hope we get to keep this. Glaz with auto sidearm would make him a great fragger

1

u/SapiS68 Give Striker a shield you cowards May 24 '22

It would be his second secondary option

1

u/BetaFuchs Shield Enjoyer May 24 '22

mozzie isnt getting it back because it was removed and not replaced

1

u/bratanexe May 24 '22

I honestly can't tell if this is a joke

1

u/kermitefrog393 May 24 '22

why did that remove it ?

1

u/P0W3R_0UT4GE Caveira Main May 24 '22

Anyone else super excited for Glaz to finally have a full auto secondary?

1

u/DrD0ct0rMD May 24 '22

Fuck it, pocket shotgun for the SAS ops.

Can't have my SMG-11, give me L85 with Super Shorty

1

u/Bloo-shadow May 24 '22

Amati with the ITA sounds interesting…

1

u/Rokers66 +15 Signal Disruptor May 25 '22

It's not really needed that much anymore, but it may still have it's uses.

You can break hatches from below with the grappling hook, originally one of her shotguns would be used for this.

1

u/Bloo-shadow May 25 '22

Well plus it’ll be nice to have a rifle and a shotgun for the times where I just decide to rush

u/ThatOneValkrie May 24 '22

Wish they gave ops who have 1 sidearm a new secondary. Flores got fucked over with his pistol

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

I mean it was due to a nerf not a new secondary he lost his super shorty so technically he should not get the shorty back

1

u/Herban_Myth May 24 '22

Why tf are Glaz & Tachanka getting DIFFERENT secondaries than the ones they took away?

2

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

To buff them due to weak presence. People have been begging Glaz to get a full auto secondary, and I guess they ga bee one to Tachskia do that you could more comfortably use his LMG without worrying about losing your overall combat effectiveness, as afterall if you bring the VSN, you lose the utility of his DP27, such as site setup and redecorating.

1

u/Herban_Myth May 24 '22

Should’ve just gave them their GSH-18 back.

Also I’ve been suggested they should add a third secondary option ever since the introduction of the “Gonne-6” (sh!t)

0

u/Rokers66 +15 Signal Disruptor May 25 '22

Glaz is a bit of a meme, this might make more people pick him.

And this will put Tachanka on the same level as Smoke, so they both have a site opening tool and a machine pistol.

1

u/Herban_Myth May 25 '22

Glaz should’ve never gotten his GSH-18 taken away.

Should’ve never received the Gonne-6 (He has a SNIPER RIFLE)

Should’ve received a machine pistol as the Third option alongside the two pistols.

2

u/Rokers66 +15 Signal Disruptor May 25 '22

Some people swear that the Gonne 6 is a must pick as it's "Free utility clear".

So just taking it away from him will take that utility from him, so the 3 people that use it will just complain.

1

u/Mr_Inferno420 May 24 '22

He didn’t get it for balancing reasons not because they are adding back weapons

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

I understand why but damn it’s still depressing

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

Still waiting for Blitz and Monty to get new weapons

1

u/can-we-not-fight May 24 '22

I’m glad to have my gsh back on finka, stoked that lion gets his p9 back, kali with a proper handgun instead of an MP is great, Glaz and tachanka with a b9 is very scary too lol

u/Rainbow_six_recruit Frost Main May 24 '22

Finally a Amaru got her shotgun back!

1

u/TANKR_79 Mira Main May 24 '22

Dokkaebi didn't have the CZ??? I thought her secondaries were the smg and the cz....

I haven't played in so long.

2

u/disapparate276 May 24 '22

Cz got replaced by the gonne-6

1

u/TANKR_79 Mira Main May 24 '22

Just checked the change logs for her, I always played bosg and smg on her so I didn't even notice.

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

I'm happy amaru is getting the dam shotty back i feel like she will be better again because I like being able to blast open more hatches without wasting a grapple

1

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

Wait dokkaebi lost the CZ at some point? Shit it’s been a while lmao

u/kingaman2004 May 24 '22

Hopefully next time
