The HVR in all regard is still a crutch as its still 850 damage with no range dropoff (unlike every other gun in the game). Not having this dropoff auto makes it op as it doesnt follow a mechanic for every other gun. Its still ez mode and can be abused at close range (percs anyone?) and i still see qs fairly often so all in all the nerf wasnt enough.
The HVR for starters should follow the damage dropoff mechanic like anything else in game which will make other snipers more viable as right now no other sniper can compete with the HVR (or buff damage on other snipers to compensate for the HVR). A slight damage nerf to somewhere between 725 and 760 should also solve the cqc bs and will make it so percs cant auto kill after taking a HVR shot. The scout is more intended for closer ranges as far as snipers go and should be more viable in such range then the HVR (but its not) Snipers arent meant for close range and the fact that the HVR is so dominating outside of its role isnt right and needs to be fixed for the overall gun balance in APB.
Nhvr nerf.

Or just use scout...
My bets on next weapon destroying may be scout.
