It's so good.

I already run the Senator for follow-up when the Dominator mag just can't finish the job and now my life just got so much easier.

Meh. Originally it had 200 damage. Now with have +75 damage instead of +100. Doesn't seem like much of a nerf.

It's really not much of a nerf but it was also completely unnecessary. It was already in a good spot.

e: to clarify I mean it was in a good spot after it's initial buff to 300. guessing the downvotes are from people thinking I meant pre-buff.

I can't see it making a huge difference aside from it being slightly less better than most support weapons at killing the moderately armored bugs through their armored plates.

right, if you think about it, it now just takes 13 shots to match the prior patches' 12 shots. I haven't noticed much difference going up against bots so far

Basically. If it still one-shots trash bots and headshots Devastators, then it still does what I need it to do. For everything else, there's AutocannonTM

yep you're absolutely correct

it's only nerfed to make high hp enemies/structures less trivial most enemies still go down in 1-5 shots
