Let me re-iterate it is the 1-shot damage that makes the weapon ridiculous, not the DPS/range price.
If there was a 10 second cooldown weapon it could be an instant kill weapon in all cases and people would complain. The fact that it follows the cost formula for DPS vs range is not why I have a problem with it. The weapon is a nuke not a weapon. A 3 second cooldown on a 1300 range weapon is silly. There are no other 3s cooldown weapons...and this one is high range...
Also it's not that I have no problem countering it, as in most cases it is poor defense for CPs, but great for offense. It attracts noobs to spend tons of money on it, making their team fail.
