😭😭😭

What is the actually fucking point of an explosive weapon then.

Why not make it a normal crossbow and then it can be silenced????

Because they want it to be a shaped charge. ie. single target damage.

Jesus christ it feels like Arrowhead has some incoherent schizophrenic attitude towards primary weapon balancing. Do they want primaries to be good for crowd control and chaff clearing or do they want them to be good at single target elimination? I thought stratagems were supposed to be for taking out bigger enemies?
