The difference between the earshot and nebula is the earshot used to be a powerful option… once every 12 full seconds

@spinyslasher6586

9 ай бұрын

Agreed. Once the earshot is fired, it was out of business for the next 12 seconds, on the other hand, the Nebula was basically a neverending lightshow that was impossible to dodge on shit netcode.

the basho arms probably got hit with a nerf because their defense values were so high for the weight if you don't care about aiming stats, which made them pretty good for missileboats as well as just melee

Bazookas feel so nice, lightweights are now the hit hard and leave harder playstyle, fanTASIC buffs, and this is only the beginning more buffs will come

PvP already feels like less of a slog. For starters, I've already noticed more diverse loadouts on AC's that are aware of the patch. People that haven't noticed and are still using the pre-patch meta spam like the Coral weapons, Zimmers, and Stun Needles are no longer free wins against AC's not using them. As someone that loves lightweight AC's, the speed mobility have felt amazing. Coupled with the buff to parts to prevent instant stagger, i no longer have to fight tooth and nail and get sweaty fighting even suboptimal builds. The difference in capability feels night and day. Overall I'd say this patch has been great. heavyweights stay viable and great weapons are still great, but lightweight and different weapons that were not meta are now no longer feeling like a pointless waste of time. All i really want at this point is a netcode patch and I'd be content.

It feels so good in my lightweight kiting dual laser plasma missiles build. Racking up wins in 1v1s. The best part is.. there were so many varieties of builds I faced, quite a few close matches where opponents are actually using cover and dodging attacks to close in finally instead of AB face tanking and spamming Zimmer kick.

Great video buddy :)

Air burst grenades are pretty interesting. Wish we had a few more with shorter ranged fuses. The arm grenades with sub 300 range could be pretty interesting in pvp now.

Explosive thrower buff is fun, reverse joint kick into explosive thrower does a ton of stagger and with the new 3 second reload time it pretty spamable. With the bazooka/grenade launcher buffs you can make a pretty fun pseudo-melee build out of it.

the aurora light wave cannon is one of the coolest weapons in the game. it deserves faster lockon, slightly more ammo, and even more improved dmg from the firearm spec generators imo. ill take it though, its way better than it was.

What changed on it?

Small note on the TAI YANG SHOU, one of my favorite weapon, the reload speed buff is pretty noticeable, the range buff a little bit less but still extremely nice, the most important though is the ammo, going from ~20 to 40-45, before it was hard to use in pve because of the few ammo, now its downright one of the best expedition weapons

Looks like they did a pretty decent job for balancing by making a bunch of the weapons overtuned then bringing them in line. The obviously weak weapons got buffed as well and even just having nore ammo for pve means that much more anmo to have fun with. Love it.

Buffing the Aurora doesn't help when the tracking is completely broken. It has very high guidance, but its actual performance does not reflect this.

They did a few things to reduce the kick cancer. Or whatever significant advantages tetra users had. 1) The range of the kick 2) Overall boost speed depending on your weight, most tetra builds are quite heavy 3) AB dmg and stagger reduction has been reduced. Meaning they can’t beeline AB to u with no consequences, top of with the tetra reduced AP, means they really need to dodge and plan carefully how to close in the distance. 4) EN consumption increased, they can’t stay in the air almost all the time to spam missiles. This means if u are playing a lightweight build and u are playing it proper dodging and all. You should do better against them this patch.

Of all the thing that got nerfed and buffed Nebula is oppresive and yeah i aggre its more Netcode issue rather than weapon itself Stun Needle is mad broken but dont forget Electric Discharge is also a bonus problem Zimmerman is Zimmerman I dont understand Haldeman nerf since Zimmer still has more effective range than Haldeman Earshot is hilariously least oppresive than it looks because 12 second reload is WAY too long to make it as oppresive as Nebula Songbirds is just lol lmao its the worst GL for PvP and now its even worse because it was too strong for PvE Harris is now REALLY good, it was allready a good ass Linear but now you can play a Medium Weight build that hits like a truck Trueno Nerf is deffinitly awful Vs Lightweight now but Vs Heavies AS a Lightweight its still a devastating weapon, i honestly think Trueno and Plasma Thrower are Anti weight specific weapon with Trueno being Anti Heavies while Plasma Thrower is more Anti Light

Like every change except coral launcher nerf. Weapon was incredibly easy to avoid, so it being insanely punishing if it did connect was what made it worth running. Depending on the intensity of the nerf, can’t imagine the weapon will be worth the slot anymore. Also not sure how I feel about the Light weight AC changes. As someone who prefers close range bruiser styles, already have a hard enough time dealing with light weights who’s entire build consist of running away while throwing poke damage until I eventually die. These changes I feel will just make that already insanely obnoxious play style even worse.
