I'm a spin user and in arena there is no time to deliver 3-5 discs to a BRUTE, DMB, or JUG without teammates coming and killing from the back. I have used the disc/thumper combo, disc/pistol but with good players there is no time to put em down. I understand teamwork, but common it's public arena. Most of the time you find yourself alone. In my experience the team with the most heavies win, even noob heavies are irritating enough. I want a weapon that can kill heavies just like an MA to a PTH from soldier. Thanks.

Mobility matters little in Arena? You're way off target here. Not only does mobility matter immensely, but the confined nature of the game type means you can't get away with camping in one spot no matter which class you are.

Heavy Killer weapon request

I would like a weapon that can kill heavies quickly. I'm a spin user and in arena there is no time to deliver 3-5 discs to a BRUTE, DMB, or JUG without teammates coming and killing from the back. I have used the disc/thumper combo, disc/pistol but with good players there is no time to put em down. I understand teamwork, but common it's public arena. Most of the time you find yourself alone.

In my experience the team with the most heavies win, even noob heavies are irritating enough. I want a weapon that can kill heavies just like an MA to a PTH from soldier.

Thanks.

We have a weapon for that. If you look on your keyboard right above the W and E keys you will see a 3. Press that.
