The Jackhammer is pretty much instant death. On a couple of occasions it left me thinking I had been one shot killed by it at full or near full health. I guess the fact that it's only useful up close kinda balances it. I still think the mini chain gun sucks and it's pointless when you can you can have an accurate, fast firing rifle with a large clip and 4x scope- the cycler..
I've had experiences w/ maxes now. The pounder takes quite of a bit of skill to use effectively and it's a grief machine if you're not careful or if you're just plain unlucky w/ rookie friendlies about.
The dual-cycler max is great fun but you have to get the jump on enemies because the decimator will take you down quickly.
Think before you achor..always better to anchor down out of sight and move off quickly again when you're compromised and the enemy ducks behind cover..only takes a second to whip out an AV weapon and you'll be toast right quick..
