If the one we have in the beta is indicative of how this weapon type will perform, they will rarely ever be used. I'd like to see more stability while under fire as well as bullet magnetism while under fire because, as they currently stand, they are useless even at long ranges if you even take the smallest hit.

I agree wholeheartedly. The flinch is ridiculous, and it sucks because I think linear fusion rifles are super cool. They're just outclassed and made useless by every other gun in PvP, especially due to the fact that apparently they one-shot on a very inconsistent basis. I hope they fix them in the future to make them more of a PvP viable weapon class, so I won't have to let my Tarantula collect dust.
