It's still very fast, you can reach 1200 qu/s in two laser boosts.

Taking out an escaping enemy should be about skill, teamwork and using whichever weapon or weapons makes sense for that situation, not needing to use the cheat rifle supreme to handle the situation for you. That's just bad balance.
But if you are talking about killing a flag carrier at long range, well then whatever weapons are used for that should be good at long range and certain situations, not every range and every situation. That would mean reverse falloff for the Nex or using the Rifle and TAG Seeker instead for example.
I am saying this is the minimum damage because of experience with ctf, even with teamplay there are times when you just need some long range weapon to deal some good damage, 67 is quite less to be honest, any health or armor can get up to 3 nex hits, that's 4 seconds to kill somebody, quite very low and requires to hit 3 consecutive shots. You shouldn't talk about this balance because your ping is highly inappropriate to play. Nex is fine as it is.
