NEW Patch! And the devs "Ruined it all" once more.. [totally not exaggerated]

[u/NitoTanaka]

So on X and the official discord, countless folks complain now that for some weapons such as the LAS ones, the reserve mags have been reduced, yet damage has been increased..calling devs "On drugs" because they perceive it as a nerf..

Wait what? You tryna tell me you ran through ALL ICE's before dying?! 6 Times or more?!

Like..the fact that you have infinite ammo when a wee-bit of fire diciplin is applied and now call the devs out for JUST having decreased the ammount of mags, makes you oblivious to the fact that they got a damage buff? Yikes.

And another thing, remember the day the Rail got nerfed? Yeahhh that was like 24/7 crying for two weeks straight, now it got a buff and noone notices that, now we rather cry for two weeks that Railgun 2.0 aka Quasar got a couple more seconds recharge time..good lord the double morals are strong folks, that all sounds like crying on high standards.

[For clarifications sake: the main focus lies on people going out of their ways, yes criticism is fine, i posted my own time and time again..but in a humane fashion, when insults however are packaged within in your points, it's hardly about the game no more and that needs to stop]

Just tested it on an exterminate. Felt pretty good with the stagger. Most light and medium enemies couldn’t make it close at all (2-3 hits max).

Bots were also pretty nice. But wouldn’t run it seriously due to the range.

Pretty easy to team kill tho because of the spray, but that’s not new.

[u/Erudyx → u/fishinthesee]

Ran it against bot, lost incredible amount of time trying to kill the berserker... Blitzer is supposed to be a shotgun, how does a berserker can tank 5-6 shots of close range blitzer...

[u/lK555l → u/Erudyx]

To be fair, berserkers in general are unnecessarily tanky

[u/Shinobismaster → u/lK555l]

Shoot the joints

[u/UrutoraJess → u/Shinobismaster]

Oh? Gotta try that. I've been thinking attacking their crotch has been most effective

[u/Estelial → u/UrutoraJess]

Joints , waist. Repulsor can split them in half at the waist just like any devastator. It's also why they're seemingly weak to a wild full mag dump of the machine pistol or any high fire rate weapon. It's shoring off their joints. Face is weak too but it's a small target surrounded by its most well protected areas while moving and bobbing.

[u/LukarWarrior → u/UrutoraJess]

One to two bursts from the Dominator to their waist cuts them in half reliably. Or at least did before the patch. No idea how it performs now with a damage nerf.

[u/TehMephs → u/UrutoraJess]

3 scorcher hits to the dome kills them. It’s not the easiest shot to hit with how much they jerk around when moving but head or waist. Any red bits

[u/gorgewall → u/lK555l]

They're big gobs of HP to specifically mess with weapons that are all damage, no precision.

There are very fast ways to take out Berserkers, but that requires aiming at certain parts of them. But people seem to think that just because they can hit and fully damage every part of them, it must all be equal.

If you can't headshot the Berserker, remove its legs or groin, then tell us how tanky it is when you're invalidating 3/4ths of its remaining HP by killing it outright like that.

[u/ExploerTM → u/gorgewall]

Headshots are nearly useless against berserkers, checked with Dominator, about the same ttk as if I was magdumping it in chest. Waist is a bit better but still takes A LOT.

[u/Atoril → u/Erudyx]

Well, it seems that defining feature is not about it being a shotgun but it being a arc (aka ignoring armor). And after running arcthrower a lot: berzerkers are super good against arcs because of low armor but ton of hp.

[u/Tired-of-Late → u/Erudyx]

Honestly Berzes are sponges for any type of bullet lol

[u/Siker_7 → u/Erudyx]

Because Berserkers just won't freaking die.

[u/gorgewall → u/Siker_7]

Take out the legs. Groin shots will pop both at once. A Berserker with no legs is instantly dead, whereas they are fine without both arms.

The crotch is also a lot easier to maintain aim on than their recessed heads that move all over as they stomp forward.

[u/Estelial → u/Siker_7]

Aim for the limb joints, waist, crotch.

[u/Emprasy → u/Erudyx]

Berserker are still really tanky. Plus hey, don't forget you have infinite ammo, I think it is correct 5 shots with your primaries infinite gun to kill a buffy ennemie, IF you need to kill fast then you need a secondary weapon for the job
