    Yup, feels like a big nerf.

    It used to oneshot nursing spewers with a body shot for example, now takes two. It also used to oneshot brood commanders with a head shot, albeit inconsistently. And it was decent at clearing clumps of small ennemies. Oh well, such is the way of things with balance patches.

        I’m actually in the opposite boat, the current leaks paint the weapons in a mediocre light, and the armors are uninspired. However they’ve shown that they have no qualms about buffing up previously useless weapons, like the blitzer, fire breaker, and scythe, so that gives me a reason to consider the war bond.

      Wow people complain a whole lot about things like that. The gun was way overpowered. You could even close bug holes with a primary weapon but people still cry. There shouldn’t be a loadout that can do everything perfectly all the time, and with the eruptor you definitely could
