It almost takes a clip to shoot a person outside of a meter or something, which is silly when compared to one-shotting people with Marshal from somewhere around 3-10 meters(?) with the secondary firemode. You'll get like 4-7 kills with it before you run out of ammunation, and unlike Typhoon it doesn't even mop the floor with players in close combat.
Am I the only one who thinks Jackal could use a small buff? (*gasp*) It was overpowered during the release but the Data Patch "over-nerfed" it. I personally can't find a single reason to use it outside of the cool factor. And that seems to be noticeable in the community at least. No one uses it.
Maybe it could get a small buff to its damage. Increasing the amount of ammunation sounds silly since it would still be useless againts a decent Feline/Marshal/Typhoon/Scarab user.
And as for the bug, Silencer is still locked in the weapon attachment, even though I have a weapon level of 8/9 with Jackal. I can't be silent with the Jackal.
