They just need to fix the sights not properly aligning and it’s golden

[@WayaliciousTV]

I agree! I find it more harder to scope than to do with no scope 💯

[@mrrandal]

i could be wrong, but i find that when the sights aren’t properly ranged, you run into the real life isse where, comparative to the reticle’s angle to target, the round’s trajectory arch goes over the sight angle, making you have to aim lower with the sight when firing shorter distances than the sight is ranged/zeroed. i’ve found some success with that adjustment!

[@JasonTodd-tu3wq]

Dude that makes aiming better what r u on abt

[@silveredbullet802]

​@@mrrandalso that was why it was off a bit. After playing sniper with ballistics in some games, it didn't click for me on this one. It doesn't help that most weapons are hitscans but my instincts kicked in for this one cuz I was just adjusting where the shots landed. But now knowing it is ballistics based, spotting is now a must before actually firing AMR and I could finally pop commie bot scum at the range!

[@silveredbullet802]

Aww man KZbin didn't put in my reply. TLDR, thought sniper was just off knowing most weapons are hitscans, can now fully utilize spotting and taking down opponents long range due to ballistics based projectile.

[@ChizFreak]

ATR is also good against Automatons because of two reasons: 1) if you can shoot the heatsink, it can take out anything super-fast, even tanks and hulks; 2) if you can't hit their weakpoint, then you use it to DISARM them instead of killing them. You can disarm all Devastators in ONESHOT by aiming at their weapons/rockets. This means that you are practically ''disabling them'' in one-shot to the point they are not a threat anymore. Likewise, you can even disarm THE HULKS by shooting at their arms/shoulders because those specific parts are not considered Heavy Armor and can be penetrated by the ATR. I would love if you can make a video of this technique along with the jetpack: I use that build to get on top of a mountain overlooking the objective my team is assaulting and disarming all the priority targets so my team can take it easily; if you get lucky and enemies expose their backs to you (because you are far away on a mountaintop they often ignore you) then you can kill them fast too.

[@WayaliciousTV]

This is a good comment! I noted this and thank you this wonderful in-depth advise

[@ChizFreak]

@@WayaliciousTVThanks, I feel like there is a lot of depth to look in this game when it comes to combat. Clearly we have to keep trying shooting enemies in every possible spot to see what happens and find new ''weakspots'' or tricks to do like the one I mentioned to disarm bots or the one you mention in this video to kill charges (how the femur of their front legs is not heavy armor).

[@halopersonify]

I think it is exactly as good/bad as I thought it to be. It's intended to be used in medium to long-range fire support, not CQB. This video demonstrated very well that if you encounter a swarm, you can use it to not die, but there are way better choices for all the situations it was demonstrated being used in, especially in close quarters.

[@airallieman]

with the exception of the charger and titan, the grenade launcher does everything better in this video, and I wasn't impressed with the charger/titan footage. Auto cannon (turret or support weapon) would be even better in an over watch role.

[@defenstrator4660]

The problem is that you will be fighting at closer quarters whether you want to or not. There will be a breech or drop ship. You will encounter enemies en masse that are deploying twenty or thirty feet from you. The fact that it has no third person site is ridiculous.

[@viktoriyaserebryakov2755]

Why use this over the MG though?

[@poobs2361]

Speaking from having used everything in the game I don't really agree with this statement. The grenade launcher has a tendency, in large groups of bugs, to bounce off of armor. In CQB I've died enough times to basically never rely on it's damage (which is quite good when it doesn't bounce off and kill you). This kind of forces you to kite large groups which doesn't work on a few enemy types depending on the terrain like hunters, stalkers, chargers, titans, etc. Even the auto cannon is not technically better in true CQB because it is an explosive which can and will CC you in the middle of a horde clear and even kill you outright if things get too close. Plus you have a mobile reload which is much more useful in a CQC situation. Sure you are forgoing some damage which in many situations is probably more important; but the auto cannon is factually quite cumbersome and slower to aim with it's recent nerfs. Plus, it is much easier to start ranged engagements with the sniper optic as you can take your time to line up headshots (like on spewers and brood commanders), which can be a real difference maker in fights as your team no longer has to mag dump to drop these units which are typically very bullet spongey. I think things even out to be about the same when you weigh the pros and cons between the two. The regular MG has MUCH bigger problems in that it doesn't pen heavy armor at all and doesn't kill fast enough (it's damage against armor is sustained, not burst). This can be an issue, for instance, against groups of spewers where you can't get enough damage out to kill them in between dodging attacks. In group play, your role with the AMR is to pick off high value targets so that your team only has to clear trash, and you have the benefit of choosing to engage either at distance or close quarters because, like the mg, it uses bullets instead of explosives. Something that can heavily change your play style running the AMR is to use an EAT in conjunction rather than taking a bag. This makes you way more effective on heavy armor (especially groups of them), as you can pretty easily retreat to call it down and effectively one shot chargers. Running this duo also makes you very effective at taking down shrieker nests as the 2 anti tanks can take down 1, 3 mags of the AMR can take down another, and by the time you finished the second the EAT will be ready to call down again to finish off the 3rd. It's a load out I have been using extensively throughout difficulties 7-9 with very good success in random lobbies with no communication. I don't play solo so I can't speak on its effectiveness there but I imagine it would be a similar story.

[@fashb2k]

This rifle has a special place in my heart. I played a sniper build at the beginning when matchmaking was not working.

[@kaifox431]

Damage is fine, penetration is ok (though it could use just a slight bump) But the only things it really needs, is a better scope view, a better scope zoom, but most importantly, a faster bullet velocity. Currently it uses sub-sonic rounds, making it very hard to hit weakpoints at long range, where the AMR shines.

[@pedrolps_]

It's been so frustrating lately, the enemies flood the game in such a stupid way, sometimes I need to do everything alone and when that ends up becoming impossible, I look back and there are 4 chargers, 7 stalkers and 3 bile titans, all at the same time , it is very difficult to deal with everyone effectively by hitting the weak spots 😢

@@CoffeeSnepNo it doesnt make it medium armor. It completely removes the armor. You can even shoot it with a pistol in the exploit window although its not really effective.

A tip for running away from charger, if you wearing medium or light when you running away try change direction twice(go left about one step then switch to right) it will make charger follow the first direction and go the wrong way most of the time.

I really don't want this to seem like criticism. But this is the dream - optimal situation to do this to chargers with the Anti Material Rifle and it still took a really long time + a charger getting stuck to find the right time to hit that angle. It's great that this exists - But if they insist on the 6/7 chargers at a time scenarios we just need some cleaner mechanics for removing that leg armour. OR make the booty a genuine weak spot. Also realising that there is a sight issue made me feel better :D I really like the AMR for bots but couldn't understand how I was somehow more accurate with a zero-zoom slugger at these distances than I was with a scoped sniper rifle. Keep up the great videos.

[@WayaliciousTV]

Thank you for this in-depth information comment. I like this!

[@M9Seradon]

Devs have mentioned getting so many heavy enemies up your butt is not intended and should be rebalanced with the upcoming hotfix. That said, I do feel like the AMR is better against bots since you're not as pressured by melee units, and the weakpoints are generally easier to hit.

[@jarjarjarjar3981]

I love the AMR but my god is the sight ass, if it was like a regular sniper rifle cross hair I would run it more often.

[@winterwolf1250]

I have had mixed results being able to kill chargers by shooting their front legs. Sometimes the AMR will strip armor off front legs. I've 3 shot chargers when it works, but its inconsistent. 50-60% of the time the shots will just ricochet.. so I think its based on angle. Its weird...

[@thebigenchilada678]

It’s based off of angle. The armored plates in this game are insanely detailed, once you realize the angles you need to hit them at and how detailed the game is, it becomes more impressive than annoying. It’ll also trivialize those heavier enemies once you learn the angles you need to fire at. Especially if you’re rockin the recoilless rifle which, in my opinion, is the single best anti-armor weapon in the game as it can one shot every thing with a well placed shot. Bile titan? Neck or mouth (when it’s open) Tank? Devestator? Directly into the heat vent. Charger? Headshot. Dropship? Fire at one of the vtol engines. Automated cannons? Anywhere.

[@Vaprous]

I think this is the real reason why they nerfed the Railgun. People were so focused on it that they misunderstood or outright ignored other options, labeling them as weak. The railgun wasn't really over nerfed, it was simply dropped down to match the performance level of all the other heavy weapons. Its now much closer to the intended balance range of heavy guns it seems. Anti-Material Rifle was so overlooked that until the railgun nerf, no one was even paying attention to it at all. Heavy weapons are all meant to have trade offs in exchange for their killing power; the railgun previously had no real trade offs which is why it became meta so quickly. Now with the nerfs, its back to being a skill based trade off where on unsafe mode, a maxed charge can still do the same things it was doing pre-nerf. Its still technically better than the Anti-Material Rifle since you can shoot anywhere on a leg with an overcharged railgun and it will do damage.

[@WayaliciousTV]

This is a good comment! I like this! Very well said my friend!

[@DigitalShaolin]

unsafe railgun seems to have been nerfed as well to not be viable against bugs in high tier, along with the increased spawning of heavy armor bugs. idk about automatons. additionally this means that other weapons should have been buffed, not that the railgun needed nerfing to be as useless as all the others were past difficulty 4. I don’t know what about taking 3-4 shots to kill a charger on unsafe mode screams “skilled” to you but skilled is just a euphemism for “I enjoy games where me and my 3 stack of cheeto encrusted friends get to fail a mission on difficulty 4 and I want it to be the same for everybody else”… 3-4 shots to kill a charger is nowhere near adequate when the game spawns 5 chargers and 2 bike titans regularly along with the hordes of ads, if you enjoy suffering and pain then go pay somebody to spank your ass, the rest of the helldivers will enjoy spreading democracy and you get to have your peak masochistic experience

[@TsunamiWombat]

I find the jump pack extremely useful if you're in a 'hunting' specialist roll. Using it with the flamer, grenade launcher, or laser cannon can let you quickly get out of trouble or flank enemies. I've leapt behind bot tanks and killed them by hosing their vents with the laser cannon like this.

[@phyll0medusa]

The only two issues I have with AMR are overcrowded scope and the existence of autocannon. It's a great weapon if you don't want to have a backpack with ammo

[@ARTEMISXIX]

Tbf AMR isn't amazing against bugs, but for bots? It's probably my favorite reason. - You can 2 tap Hulks frontally (shoot their face plate, two taps any difficulty kills them) - You can delimb Hulks very quickly with the AMR, good if you're not confident in your aim, a delimbed Hulk is pretty much a non-threat - You can 1 shot delimb Devastators, although it might take 2 shots to bust a rocket pod - Can still deal with scout striders AKA AT-RT, 2 leg shots in quick succession should blow it off or tilt it over, but it might take 3 - Fantastic at killing Commissars quickly (kill any infantry bot carrying a sword, whether its 1 or 2, although prioritize the guys with 1, they're more skittish and less likely to attack you over calling a drop-ship) - You can still carry a backpack, either for ammo or bubble shield (Rover kinda sucks against bots and the jetpack is a meme that will get you shot out the sky like a clay pidgeon)

[@andurianbutler6012]

I feel like the AMR is more of a "Right tool for the job" issue. When you get it, its more likely that you arent often encountering the things you would use it for, (Hive Commanders, Chargers, ect). If you use it on the little dudes, its kinda of overkill.

[@MrPezsgess]

It's pretty early to say but if they make a collab with DRG I really want to see gameplay features like weapon combos. So one weapon complements another. I'm not sure if you are familiar with Deep Rock Galactic, but check Lazy Maybe Warthog Breakdown on KZbin if you don't know much. Basicly let's say fire softens armor so every enemy that is on fire gets bonus damage from any kinetic firearm. Especially shotguns, and handguns. This would mean that if you are running flamethrower you could make pistols viable. Things like this could make co-op gamplay more engaging, and even solo play more strategic. The other thing in DRG that there is player enmy scaling. Running with 4 dudes mean you should see much more or tougher enemies.

5:50 so it took you about 2/3 full clips of ammo and an orbital strike to take down the titan. Yet even after the patch I can still sometimes 1 or 2 tap them with the railgun. The AMR still needs a buff asap, there's nothing "anti material" about it.

[@WayaliciousTV]

I agree brother, It still need a buff with more armor pen and more ammo i think.

It should be able to strip or pen heavy armour imo

[@Bashaka104]

RAILGUN IS ONLY NERFED ON SAFE MODE

[@TsunamiWombat]

Other thing to note, it will damage bot striders, 2-3 shots to the plate will down it. It's ammo inefficient but it can work. Sometimes it even pens and takes out the pilot. It will oneshot bile spewers in the head (haven't tested on 7+ might be wrong). This would be a fantastic workhorse of a weapon if not for the fact it's sights were misaligned, making it less than useful for sniping medium bots in the head.

Guys, the scope isn’t inaccurate, you aren’t marking ur enemies, checking the distance, and sighting in ur rifle accordingly. This game has mil sim elements and what would happen in real life with weapons will happen in this game, and the shooting shows this, also while the gun says it doesn’t have armor pen it does, it can pen light vehicle armor and that’s actually stronger than the lightest tier of medium armor, plus it has explosive rounds, so if you are sighting in ur rifle correctly, and hitting ur headshots, this thing is a beast

By the way there's somthing extremely odd occuring with the armor and hp values depending on whether theres a ps5 player present in your group. On PC, bile titans for instance can take between 10 and 30 fully charged railgun headshots. But when a ps5 player joins the team every titan can be taken out with 1-3 headshots everytime. The same is true for chargers, leg armor can be taken out with 2 charged shots when ps5 player is present, but it can take 3-5 on PC exclusive. I was testing it out today since my wife owns the game on PS5, I played games with and without her char in the match and it was like clockwork. Everytime without exception I could kill them in 1-3 shots, but without her they pretty much wouldn't die.

i mean it makes sense to shoot joints theyre mostly unarmored and a realistic approach, against bots most get killed easily but shooting off their legs, a normal skelly can take 1-3 shots on the torso but limbs takes them down, plus it lessens the threat after disarming enemies now with this vid against terminids i now found a use for it on bug missions thank you kindly sir

[@WayaliciousTV]

Man, thank you for this wonderful comment! I appreciate it man!

[@Madhuntr]

little tip for chargers. you are faster running around them then diving to the side :P otherwise. nice and informative video

[@WayaliciousTV]

Yeah I'm always doing that these past few days. but a high chance for me to their side attacks when they suddenly stopped charging.

[@bluemew6457]

I think that the AMR should be suppressed to the point that enemies more than like 25m away shouldn’t be able to hear its shots. That, and fixing the scope issues, would make it absolutely perfect for mid to long range stealth sniper play, while maintaining its oh shit button capability. I don’t think it would break the weapon, especially considering that missing a shot would still probably alert enemies, and I feel like it would better allow for stealth playstyles to actually remain stealthy for any length of time without getting into stealth melee. What would break the weapon, but simultaneously make it extremely unique and interesting, would be giving it the ability to load and shoot strategems up to like 100m away with an under-barrel launcher. That would be cool.

[@MrVxO]

I've been an avid anti-materiel rifle fan since beginning and people really sleep on it. I don't think I had one game where somebody else than me brought it to the mission. I think it's a far more solid option vs Automatons, from personally experience. It's very satisfying to blow Hulk's little heads off with well placed shots and picking off Rocket Devastators before they land a rocket in your face.

[@random.rabbit]

the first time i picked up the anti material rifle i noticed it lacked a fire rate cap, yeah you can dump all 7 rounds of AP 50call into the closest enemy in half a second if you dont scope in, it can save you sometimes, but remember the crazy recoil

[@arahelis2038]

So the AMR is my favorite weapon since I've started using all the way back at like lvl 5 or so. I am now lvl 41, still love it, still use it despite everyone telling me it's worthless. Glad to see someone else agree with me on how useful it is. Still I don't forgive you for being better than me with it.

[@WayaliciousTV]

OH noo, I'm not that good in AMR. My favorite is the Arc Thrower. Check out my Video about it

[@RamonAlek]

This weapons needs a huge accuracy boost.

[@ijlj0429]

my main problem with it is the name the fact that your have to find all these work around to beat the armor with anti-material rifle is the issue and its especially evident on automaton were you see sight that don't line up have the time and or get deflected and trust i like a challenge but to me i want buff so it can fill its role and PS I'm pretty decent at hitting head shots but sometimes when a devastator on my friends/fellow diver i got to full send it

[@sivel7493]

I think the Anti-Material Rifle is definitely more built to deal with bots, than bugs (although the fact that it can kill COmmadners, Hive Guards and Spewers fast makes it pretty good). Like how the flamethrower is better for bugs than bots. I think for what it is, it's pretty balanced. Though If there's one change I'd love, is to make the scope ADS not jump up whenever you shoot, it's tough to stay on target, especially when you play at like 40-50fps in the lowest settings where everything's blurry af (even the reticle).

[@WayaliciousTV]

Yes I agree, The recoil when in ADS mode is ridiculously insane.

[@UncertainTism]

I want to agree, for the sake of better gameplay experience, but at the same time…It’s a .50 cal - that thing is gonna kick! Same goes for the literal shoulder-mounted cannon.

[@sivel7493]

@@UncertainTism well, it's alien bug chitinous armor, hell they can be tougher than ANYTHING we have currently, if they can tank 1 rocket, then I think 50cal rounds bouncing off of them is not unrealistic xD.

[@Troupe_Master]

This is cool and takes some maddd skill

[@WayaliciousTV]

[@ArthurTorrias]

The sound design of this weapon is so crisp and powerful, I love it. Unfortunately, I'm in charge of add clear, so it's Machine Gun all day every day.

[@WayaliciousTV]

INDEED IT IS MAN! THANKS

[@Duran762]

You can kill bile titans with Scorcher and railcannon strike and its easier than anti material. Railcannon then pop their sacs and they die. Scorchers do explosive which do bonus damage to weakspot sacs. Crazy powerful.

[@Gen-X702]

Scope works fine. This gun is a beast. I’ll bring it with me on every mission. I don’t care if it bugs or automatons it lays ways to just about anything it hits.

[@SteveSilverskull]

i gotta try this build :o

[@AstrusEminus]

The anti material rifle is still pretty much a joke weapon against bugs. It's very solid against bots though. Also work on your charger dodging, you try to run past them way too early, don't give them time to turn back at you while charging.

[@NKaldis]

Hey, can you say any more about how to consistently exploit the vulnerability window on the chargers? How do you actually know when the armor can be bypassed and does it matter what area of the leg armor you shoot in order to bypass the armor?

[@WayaliciousTV]

If i did the vulnerability window, I'd be shooting it's leg armor plates right after they stopped charging and you will see my bullet will pierce through the armor. What i did here was to target their femurs but you must have a clear shot to do it. Their femurs are vulnerable with the AMR and it's the squishy part near their underbelly. You can shoot it when they're not moving. So to do it wait for them to stop charging to have time aiming to the femur. Not shooting right to the armor plates because that will be the bug vulnerability window. A lot of the viewers aren't understanding this approach, they just stating their opinions that it's the vulnerability window but in reality it's not. Vulnerability window = bug armor scaling when they start turning Weakness shot = targeting them to their femurs, but you must have a clear shot to do it. I called it the hard way.

[@artur3306]

In regards of bile titans: when using scorcher you can take out their sacks super fast due to the aoe. And once the sack is broken, the orbital railcannon will always oneshot them. Just break sacks before always

[@WayaliciousTV]

I can confirm this, Scorcher is the one and perfect choice to blow up the sacks faster.

[@konstantinzagorodnyy7588]

Yeah scorcher makes quick work of the sacks, not because of the aoe though, explosive damage is the main thing there

[@artur3306]

@@konstantinzagorodnyy7588 yes and no, while you are right that explosive damage gets 100% to the soft spots, due to the aoe you actually hit both at the same time most of the time

Stuff like this is what frustrates me about all of the backlash people were giving Arrowhead for the railgun nerf. We've had great tools this whole time, people just didn't want to pay attention to them.

[@WayaliciousTV]

Thank you buddy! I appreciate it!

[@jesspeed]

The comment above you also says that he’s been one-two tapping titans with railguns so all the railgun nerf did was require skill to use. The dev wasn’t wrong when he said skill issue. If one guy can do it, anyone can with practice.

[@Gonzalo25182]

Still needs a buff I think

[@WayaliciousTV]

Yeah, Personally it need to have armor penetration like 3-4 shots to peel off armors.

[@sivel7493]

@@WayaliciousTV if anything, I think it'd be better if they make it able to damage Charger's butt better, like the Autocannon or Scorcher, make it explosive damage type....3-4 shots to peel off the leg armor, that's just asking for another Railgun situation I think, I personally wouldn't like that.

[@Skyfysh]

This weapon against bots, played stealthily, is amazing.

[@zaelheimricht4978]

It's actually even more useful against bots.

[@voklenny4692]

My favourite loadout against bots is Anti-Material Rifle and a Jump Pack I provide cover to my teammates from higher ground and let me tell you with the proper aim the Anti-Material Rifle completely rekt Devastators and even Hulks in a few shots

[@oldzappy9790]

Simply awesome gameplay Wayalicious! Quick questions- With this play style, how do you deal with closing bug nests. Could this rifle be used to take out a spore tower at a distance? Thank you for your time!

[@WayaliciousTV]

Thank you for that awesome compliment buddy! For closing bug nest, you need to throw your grenade at it. whether it's an incendiary or impact grenade it will still work. For the spore towers and transmission towers It can easily take down with this bad boy here.

Excellent video, please do more, include Railgun

Thank you! More to come! Stay tuned!

[@StreetSurfersAlex]

The ability for it to kill chargers efficiently is just because of an armor bug. This bug happens when the charger turns and makes it losing it armor value for a second

[@WayaliciousTV]

You're talking about the Window Vulnerability, a lot of people are saying my previous video was just all about Window Vulnerability. Now what i showed here is not Window Vulnerability. It's called shooting it on the femur it's their weakness without stripping out it's leg armor.

[@theinfinium3247]

​@@WayaliciousTV​hate to be that guy but... 1. You said the "back leg" but you shot the front leg 2. Slowing the playback speed to 0.25 shows the shots hit the back of the leg not the femur. 3. You'd need to wait until they start turning around before shooting to prove your not using the vulnerability window, there are no less than 4 times you did not wait and thus used the vulnerability window. 4. For absolute certainty you should have found a charger that is not alerted and tested your femur shot, ive tried it before and the only spot on them the AMR will do damage without exploits or damaged armor is the lower abdomen. 5. Man your vids were soo much better before what happened? I know you can do better, you've shown you have a good understanding of most mechanics and want to share your knowledge with others, i respect that but this vid... It's just not it. Now don't get angry at me for saying the facts, you made a mistake, we all make mistakes and learn from them. Just do a bit more through testing for next time.

[@WayaliciousTV]

@@theinfinium3247 1. What i mean to that back leg was the Back part of the legs, either on those front and back legs 2. Its the femur then the tibia is one that has a Armor plates. you can replay it again the femur is the one next to theit underbelly. 3. There's no way to kill that charger without killing them to their weakness. Unless peeling out their armor using Stratagems as i mentioned in the video. I did not use the vulnerability window if i did, they won't last that long either. 4. The 2nd clip of the charger the stucked one, that's the clear scene that i shotted it's femur. You can see it bounces back at my first shot because i shotted it tibia. 5. It's clear in the video that i stated facts, their weaknesses. I cannot please you people if you're not contented to what this video means. I knew a lot of you will not be pleased as the others but i don't care at all, as long as i can show you guys how to spot on their weakness and how to properly use a certain weapon. I know my vids are helpful a lot of them are happy that I'm sharing my knowledge mechanics But like i said i cannot please you all and you mentioned you hate to be that guy but it sounds like you're that guy either. You just can't appreciate the video that's it. Cheers! no hard feelings.

[@theinfinium3247]

@@WayaliciousTV all fair answers, excluding 3 as i have killed a few chargers just by shooting their lower rear using primary weapons, admittedly it does take ages to kill them that way but it is possible. Perhaps some better footage would have cleared up all the misunderstandings a bit better is all. Glad we could have an adult conversation, cheers.

[@WayaliciousTV]

@@theinfinium3247 i like this conversation man, honestly no hard feelings and i respect your points.

[@lunarmoon15]

Its the recoil that annoys me other than that pretty cool i checked out the Railgun and there is a line im assuming thats 100% or maybe 90% i went to 100% as the CEO said and it exploded from what he said it should take a few sec to explode and should be overcharged anyways ill be releasing it when it sparkles/glows

Yeah about 3 secs is fine at around 4 seconds it blows up

i try this gun when i randomly pick it up from poi. it's ok imo. better than i imagine since i only try it once when im new to the game. still i think auto cannon can do the same job much faster/better bit again. auto cannon use your backpack slot.

Pair AMR with Spray&Pray for self defense and you're good to go. Been running AMR against bots for nearly three weeks already

[@WayaliciousTV]

[@rafaelgomes8835]

I still am of the mind thar the AMR and the Autocannon should be able to either penetrate or strip the armor of the chargers. As an Autocannon main myself it still boggles me that those assholes can take shots from whats officially classified as ANTI-TANK weapons and bounce thrm if they dont hit specific spots

[@steelphoenix8978]

i luv using the anti mat rifle, now if only i was good enough to hit vulnerable points like that on the chargers 😣

[@ОрвщвтЛвдвив]

With amount of time spent on chargers, I cod do the same or even faster by using arc thrower. Srly, for me it's the best support weapon. Killing hordes is ez, charges die in 10 shots. Bile titan? Use orbital rail gun or 500 kg bomb.

[@williecubbage5028]
