Top tier DMR stats vs. cost - they need love bad!

Suggestion

I love running DMRs. But as it currently stands, the only reason to run a top tier DMR (i.e. RSASS, TX-15, etc) is to swing around your giant Tarkov peen for all to see. You're literally paying for a name.

For example, you can build an ADAR just like a TX-15. However, the TX-15 costs (only) about 10K more. What do you get for this 10K more spent on the top tier 556 DMR? 2 more ergo, 3 less recoil, and the exact same accuracy.

Same with an M1A vs an RSASS. Even with the price reduction today, you can build an M1A for almost the same cost as a meta RSASS with 30 less recoil than the RSASS! Only loss over the RSASS is 2 ergo and .002 accuracy on the M1A!

Could we get a noticeable stat buff (or something) on the top tier DMRs to make them stand out a little more over the other options? There needs to be more disparity between them and the other rifle options of the same caliber. There's really no point in running them right now :(

Or just put the RSASS in the Sniper class where it belongs.

As for the TX vs ADAR, I'm betting the difference will come when durability becomes important. They should have the same stats if they are modded to be the same gun.

As far as I know the ADAR is at 80% durability max. That means that it’s accuracy is far worse on medium to long range compared to the TX.

Pretty sure that's just scav ADARs

I agree, the sound of a suppressed M1A gives me an erection so I wish it was better

I run M1As too because they're the most cost effective option. I wish they'd give me a viable reason to run RSASSs tho... (They sound even sexier than M1As suppressed, thru Sordins, imo)
