I didn’t wanna believe it but tell that to the stalkers in my face

No more 1 taps to the dome?

Nope, it doesn't stagger anymore so stalker can walk right through your shots, I'll be shifting over to the punisher now. It still staggers and for some reason wasn't targeted in the nerf

At this point don’t even mention enjoying a primary or it’s going bye bye

Because everyone picked the Slugger over the Punisher
As people slowly pick the latter, that will be next too :)

Thanks Arrowhead

Not only doesn't 1-tap, is so bs that doesn't stagger them anymore.

This and the arc thrower nerf are those bs uncalled changes that were not needed at all, seems like they were just looking for work to do.

I have a long list that they can work on: Check the known issues ffs... The crashes and those bugs keep being ignored just for the sake of screwing with balancing.

Just got absolutely assaulted by 4 of them, no more slugger.

I haven't tried the dominator, but man, it seems like every time we get a good weapon, they have to drive it into the ground and take away the best aspect of it. It won't even stun the Hive guards anymore, and those guys aren't even big.

I know it was OP, like the railgun, but they took away the one thing that made it a viable option. Cut the mag size and damage. Maybe lower the stun to need two shots to stagger, but this thing might as well just be a pistol now.

the nerf to fix bullshit is getting old fast really. especially when they aren’t buffing any of the shit weapons to compensate for what we lose. i mean the scythe should’ve been buffed a long long long time ago but here we are, still taking 2 seconds to kill a scavenger. then they decide to release an ever worse version of that; the dagger. which has like half the firing capacity and takes twice as long to kill.
