The new mission type is cool, but I wish it had rare or super samples on higher difficulties.

Since the patch, clusterbombs feel like they're being a lot more consistent in blowing up bot fabricators, even if they still don't like getting into nests.

SkyeAuroline posted:The one addition I'd make to William's list (Liberator or Defender for long range, Breaker for short) is the Slugger shotgun, which is a DMR in disguise. I don't personally use it but it's very effective in the hands of friends that do, out to a deceptively long range. It is a late unlock, though, so you won't have it for a while. I also enjoy the first shotgun (Punisher?), but the Breaker basically replaces it for most purposes. Collecting medals for the Slugger now. I like the DMR, and I love the idea of sort of hanging back from the group a bit and taking things out for them at range while they do objectively stuff, but the bugs do not seem to take kindly to this and I wind up mobbed and dead (largely because I am bad at games) You are spot on with the machine pistol. Love it. I've also become a huge Arc Thrower fan as of late. Once you get the hang of aiming it, it's pretty powerful, it never runs out of ammo, and can net some unique and interesting team kills.

Eason the Fifth posted:Anybody have a low-key favorite stratagem that they think is underappreciated? That's the shield generator relay for me in bot missions. Short cooldown, great for tossing up around a keypad while you're typing in the sequence, blocks rockets, keeps turrets alive long enough for them to be effective in big skirmishes The eagle strafing run is very helpful against the new influx of little bugs or when you need a close range strike that that runs in a different pattern from the other eagle strikes.

Love it. I was using the Slugger and getting mobbed by bugs too, you just can’t shoot the Hunters/Scavs fast enough. Switching to the machine pistol helps a lot. What I ultimately ended up doing was running Slugger -> Guard Dog -> EAT. This let me clean up Brood Commanders and Hive Guards by punching through armor, stagger all Bile Spewers, laser all the trash, and then 1 shot all the Chargers. Felt really really awesome against the bugs.

I've said it before, but: vs slugger, I think the punisher's more limited effective range and armor pen is worth it against bugs for the higher damage that lets you oneshot nearby hunters more consistently and kill stalkers faster.

How on earth are all the requests even kept track of? Would it not be easier on whoever gives out these tags to put up a Google form or something for everyone to link their usernames to? I feel so bad for the person who has to go and do this lol

Hwurmp posted:Cluster Strike is like Strafing Run, but more so yeah it rules too but the visual of the strafing run moving in the line away from you is cool and it can be used in chokepoints more easily as a result, its just that i have never felt a need to use it since being low level

The problem i have with the punisher is the breaker kinda feels like it still does the role better due to the firerate. So if I want armor pen ill take the slugger or libpen, and if I want trash clear its the breaker.

LazyMaybe posted:I think breaker and punisher are roughly equivalent currently. Punisher has more dps/faster trash clear, but worse stagger, worse magsize and a less convenient reload. Is there a way to stop the reload animation for the punisher/slugger so I can aim at something, aside from just firing off a shot

Skyl3lazer posted:The new mission type is cool, but I wish it had rare or super samples on higher difficulties. Watching pubs trying to figure out that maybe we all need to coordinate to defend one battery at a time given that bugs swarm it from all angles is... entertaining, yet frustrating. Most of them just run around shooting bugs without realizing that there's an actual objective they need to accomplish. Also entertaining, yet frustrating - holy hell they somehow got even worse at managing Chargers/Bile Titans. Though to be fair they are pretty bad at managing the new Hunter Hordes that are spawning at the same time. To that end, I honestly think MGs are an even stronger choice for bugs now. What I'm saying is - the balance patch is good. It's doing a great job encouraging more diverse loadouts as there are multiple genuine approaches to doing a one-size-fits-all build for bugs, and even then you have to prioritize what your stratagems are handling vs. what you personally are handling. It's made the game a touch harder if you're used to the previous "meta", but both of the balance patches (the weapon one and the bug spawn one) are great.

I had stopped using the Guard Dog when I hit 20 thanks to the crutch that is the shield pack, but I think using it in that role makes a lot of sense.
