Ok before you rage at me hear me out.  I love the corsair kla and I know that the MIRV is supposed to be used for short range combat.  But the range it has only allows for point blank range.  And if you've been a c class with s small little a b*** jumping around you you know how frustrating that can be to fire like that.  I have missed countless shots due to the fact that I misjudged the distance by a little.  Also it could really use a cooldown reduction. 3.5 seconds is ridiculously long for a 1 shot weapon and compared to the OP TOW it does almost the same amount of damage and us less than half its cooldown.  I wouldn't expect both changes to the Corsair and I agree that would be over powered. Just consider

The problem is the movement speed and the ability itself. The G2 Raider is the one with the problem if you ask me.

If your ping is above 80, don't bother using the MIRV.

TOW nowhere close to OP but the observation on the MIRV is pretty much spot on IMO. I din't give much thought to the ping problem--makes sense but my ping is usually in the 40-60 range on East. My biggest complaint is the ridiculously long cooldown (which can get you destroyed when you miss).

TOW: 125
Corsair XT: 168

I agree that yeah its cooldown is painfully long (literary) and that's why it needs to be shortened.  I had high hopes for the corsair xt but it turned out to be exactly like the original and have an even LONGER cooldown.

Also the could make the pellets travel faster. That's probably  another big miss factor

I feel its fine as it is, a range buff wouldnt hurt though.

Personally I'm fine with the way it is. In fact I actually liked it a bit more when the original KLA had the stats of the XT. Sure, missing a shot sucked, but when it hits, HOT DAMN it's a lot of damage.
