It's not the weapon that's bad, it's you who don't know how to use it.

The effective range of the melta is no more than 2 meters.

It shoots very fast, just get into a stance.

The multi melta is a very powerful weapon, but few people use it correctly.​

Ekhmm. It's not that not many people use it correctly but not many people use it AT ALL and not without a reason. It's a fast paced game, there's not always enough time to get into stance, very often you are forced to run and gun, that's the best tactics to survive. That is why players generally prefer a heavy bolter, it's much more versatile and with longer range. It does the same as multi melta but better, so why would you need multi melta ? Multi melta is definitely underpowered, it's a very faaar cry from what it should be according to the lore, like no other weapon in this game.

"there's not always enough time to get into stance" Lol What? You literally do it in 0.1 seconds. The TTK of a multi-melta is several times lower than that of a bolter.

You practically can't move when you're in the heavy stance. Have you even played it in pvp ? I never managed to kill anybody faster with multi melta than with a heavy bolter, maybe it's possible but I never got to experience this glory although I tried really hard XD

I was level 25 in pvp a week ago... With a multi melta you can easily have KD 3+, But if you don't know how to do it, then I'm not going to teach you​

This was taken from a youtube video a simple google search took me too where the player was using the Multi Melta.

In short, it's not bad, you're bad at using it.

Oh really, it doesn't seem like a valid proof of anything to me. How about you show YOUR OWN skill with multi melta instead of pasting a screen that doesn't tell anything. Pls, show me your game play with multi melta here, a full match if you don't mind.

Well, I haven't touched PvP since I've not been interested in delving into it yet, so can't do that.
And it's not just a screen, I linked the video itself so you could see how they played with him. Maybe learn a little from it.
It shouldn't matter if it comes from me or anyone else honestly. If you will just turn a blind eye that there are people who can utilize the Multi Melta effectively then it's you who are simply too ignorant to understand how to use it and too proud to realise that you need practice.

Oh, you haven't even played pvp once ? So you're just a pvp virgin trying to school somebody who is pvp guy only :D I saw this video and it's very weird because it's from the 9th of September - the day of the game release. Can you explain to me how did this guy get to unlock the multi melta on 15th level of veterancy in JUST ONE DAY ? Bro, if you played pvp just once, you'd know it's impossible, so that means it is most probably some kind of beta tester. You can also notice that other players are low level, so they are total rookies and they could get owned by a tactical with a combat knife who knows how to use it. Even with all this, the guy with multi melta is really struggling in this vid, you can really get this amount of kills and more much easier with a heavy bolter but it actually shouldn't be so as multi melta is supposed to be a much  more powerful weapon, you can one shot Land Raiders with it. But how are you supposed to know it, you didn't play pvp even once so you don't even understand what you see in this video and you have the balls to call me "ignorant" - LOL :D Bro, nobody is using multi Melta in pvp now, does it tell you anything or will you still be ignorant of this fact ?

I don't have to had played the PvP to be able to see that others can use a weapon that you complain over is unusable.
Is it a difficult weapon to use? Probably due to the range and firing rate. But it's a high risk high reward type of weapon.

Will everyone be able to use it effectively? No.
Could it need some fine tuning? Maybe. the game is only 2-3 weeks old and data is constatly collected to see where things could use some tuning.
But like everything in the game, it's still viable in the right hands.

It's a shotgun. The closer you are, the more powerful it is. If you try to use it like a mid-range or long-range rifle, you'll just end up getting killed like a chicken, becoming an easy kill. Jeez! ​

No, you do have to play pvp and multi melta to be able to take part in this discussion, otherwise you are just like somebody who is reviewing a movie without seeing it - stop ridiculing yourself bro  :D Your only experience about it is watching 1 vid of a guy who is a gaming journalist and who probably had some kind of a special game pass and had started playing earlier than all other players.  Saying that "everything is viable in the right hands in this game" is like saying nothing, you only prove that you completely have no idea what you're talking about.

At least I am not blind to the fact that people can use it and show good performance with it.
So where does the problem lie if the weapon itself can still perform well if not by the player using it?

In this game, yes, multi melta is a shotgun but not in WH40k lore. Normally, multi melta is a mid range anti tank weapon, it has the same range as bolter. But I'm ok with that, for the sake of a healthy gameplay it cannot be as powerful as in the lore but even shotguns have longer range than just 10 meters for the Emperor's sake :D That's all I'm asking for, a bit  longer range (and a little faster shooting maybe). I agree with the rest of your post tho, I can see that at least you tried this weapon in pvp :)

Yes, you are blind, you are pvp blind because you simply didn't play it even once - that's self explanatory. No, ppl can't use it effectively because nobody is playing this weapon, go play pvp, you will see for yourself and I'm sure the numbers will prove that once devs crunch them.

Pvp guy? Bro you are a loser lol. I also dont think you know how distance works.. or conversion? The melta is not 50 meters in campaign or 10 in pvp it is 2. This game has turned it into a shotgun you need to get closer to the enemy to be effective. 

Another guy posted a video of someone doing well with it and you dismissed it just 'because' grow up and get good.

You offend me calling me a loser and yet you are trying to say I don't know how conversation works ??? Stop offending people or I will have to report you. Yes it is around around 50 meters in the campaign and around 10 in pvp, how can you have not noticed that ? Yes I know multi melta works like a shotgun sherlock but like I said earlier, even shotguns shoot further than 10 meters. The video you are talking about is by a game journalist who had the level of veterancy - 15 on the release day , lol :D I want to see YOUR VIDEO WITH MULTI MELTA to prove that it is so effective as you say. Go ahead, don't be shy.
