@josephzs1208 From the reason they gave the nerfs, I feel that was the whole point as stated with: "this is extra important to us to tread carefully so that we don’t ruin fantasy and fun when we do nerfs." . They're still effective. They just now have a downside like the rest of the guns have, including stratagems. For the breaker it's just ammo And for railgun it's more risk reward than charge and forget.

@josephzs1208 ammo never felt like an issue for me on the breaker to warrant the supply pack, especially since they only got rid of 3 rounds in each mag, it's practically the same but you reload more often so to you it maybe trash because you reload more but to me it's pretty much similar with an ammo management system.

Joel is gm, not balancing guy. Sickle is what I want to see from primary weapon. Good to deal with small units, not good enough for brood commanders or armored things. Just a mark of a good primary energy weapon. Scythe is just eww. If they will nerf everything to scythe level - that'll be just lame. Primary should have it's use, it's not just "for show" And by the way, PVE game, come on. All I hear in this man's voice is joy. Bring good weapons - have happy players. Bring nerfs - you know the rest of the story..

Use third person to keep your awareness on your surroundings. For other shoulder-mounted weapons, you aren't using them for long enough for it to matter like the recoilless and EAT, and those need accuracy for only a moment while you line up the rocket. For primary and secondaries you are 100% right tho. I swear the accuracy actually changes between 3rd and 1st person aiming with the breathing/sway/recoil.

Im gonna say this is a good weapon, but I find the sluggers utility and strength to be far superior. I used this last night, and having near infinite ammo is cool and all. However i like versatility in loadouts, weapons, stratagems. Whatever it is. Slugger opens containers, knocks back enemies, three shots broodguards, one shots trash mobs, three shots vile speweres and hatchers. Most importantly, it trivializes stalkers... it does not allow them to retreat, it can one shot them with a head shot, and as i said just stops them in their tracks. Slugger is also good against automatons. Most weapons just dont tick that many boxes.

Wouldn’t even say the slugger or any other shotgun is good. Anything a non semi or fully auto shotgun can do a support weapon can do way better. The breakers at least are decent for taking out the tiny bugs but nothing else. Primaries just suck. They never should have touched the breaker(regular). Dominator seems to hit kinda hard though. Even then I don’t know how far above that is.

Even after the nerf to the Breaker I’ve actually gotten use to the recoil and learned how to aim properly with it. Still a monster of a gun and still S tier imo. This gun while also S tier imo just doesn’t compare to the Breaker and probably won’t change it from my main in slot Primary. Most likely though I’ll treat it like the Scorcher (also S tier) and switch out when I feel like I want to vary how I kill things. What we do need to talk about is the Las Pistol. Actually going to slot out my Redeemer for it, imo it’s good to at least run one or two (if you’re running Arc Thrower) weapons that have unlimited ammo.

For me the Scorcher is the best gun b3cause it helps me have the best strategems for my play style. Example the Scorcher is the best gun vs Atomotons, best gun to deal with Medium armor, Best gun for Spore missions, Best gun to deal with eggs it can take 5+ eggs with 1 shot. Only problem is ammo. Thats it. The exploding your self is a skill issue. For me its the best against both factions... its so versitile you can benefit in multiple ways and lets you play with multiple stratagems

I can apply near-constant pressure to any light enemies around me which really cuts into the amount of junk the team has to maneuver around while dealing with the armor problems.

The reason why the Las-5 Scythe isn't good is because we have no Rate Of Fire but what we do know it has a tick per-second, or it actually does 37.5 damage per-second, dealing up to a max of 300 damage for 8 seconds. Others in the steam forums where saying it's "good for head shots & taking out limbs" & "it actually does 300 damage per-second" (Doing up to 2,400 damage for the whole 8 seconds) but I think I'm more right about the damage, that's my thought on it though.

I really hope they get ahold of this great game but the Warbond pricing is not equivalent to the content provided and the Anti-cheat that has root kernel access even without launching the game. Just my concerns on the game.

​​​@@fredericoeusebio9770 It has better accuracy than liberator and defender (obviously) while also having better handling and better DPS due to its' rate of fire, while it can't outdamage breaker or punisher it has huge range advantage over them and has strong enough burst to clear normal bugs rushing you, the thing that makes this gun much better than any of them is the fact you can clear most missions using up maybe 2 or 3 out of 6 ammo clips on diff 7, and magazine capacity is big enough where it doesnt hinder you, also somehow it kills spewers really fast and hive guards can be killed quite reliably by shooting between their plates due to gun's accuracy, so no the gun is not trash, it's easily top 3 primary atm

I've stated this on other videos discussing this weapon, but you can fire the weapon continuously for _100_ shots before it would overheat on a regular planet. This means that each "magazine" has 5500 damage in it, even without taking into account the cooling mechanic which is essentially ammo regeneration if you were to equate it to a regular firearm. And it has 6 of these, with the same scope functionality as the Liberator, with the same damager per shot... but with a much faster fire rate equating to a much higher DPS, going from 586.66 to 687.5 which is a 17% increase in kill speed when it comes to clearing a crowd or shooting something like a Hulk in the back. This completely and utterly outclasses the Liberator in every way, and I am all for it. Hopefully, the developers don't nerf this and actually buff the weaker weapons this time. Like, the Dilligence is _fine_ but it wouldn't be inexcusable to buff it a little, same goes for weapons like the Dominator, Blitzer, Plasma Punisher, and Liberator Penetrator. The Scythe, Counter Sniper, Liberator Concussive, Dagger, and Peacemaker all need serious buffs to even be comparable to the former "good" options, let alone the "great" primaries like the Scorcher, Slugger, and Breaker.

You should test the scythe!! It’s by far my favorite gun in the game against the automatons, has about twice as much time to overheat as the sickle so it’s still good on hot planets, and when crouching is (quite literally) a laser beam. It’s great for killing devastators and below super fast if you can hit the head. Trying it with the Fortified recoil boost makes it even better though I’ve gotten to the point where i don’t feel i need it.

It's good, but the ramp-up time before it starts firing makes trying to use short, controlled bursts by tap-firing really annoying. The other properties are fine, but trying to take out multiple Hunters jumping in from different angles is really annoying with it. I miss the HD1 Sickle. Slower rate of fire and it didn't have a delay when you tried to fire it.

I think people mistaken what they mean by "not good" when I read not good I read it as "Not good in everything, and is a must have to do everything." The Las is good at small unarmored targets, alright on a planet with no modifiers, amazing on a cold planet, but bad on any planet as hot as mercury and terrible against armor, i.e., bile spewers. The punisher and slugger stun big targets like crazy and deal heavy damage, to single target a pack of hunter will easily mess with you because it's downside is, it's strong single target ability. Scorcher is arguably stronger that the breaker but it's draw back is well self dmg Every weapons from the ones we start to the ones we summon need a downside like EAT using up a support slot and strata slot and is a 1 time use but can deal the same dmg as the RR or the RR having slow reload and taking a backpack slot in return more rockets or a friend to quicken the reload. And pre breaker and railgun as much as we all don't want to admit it had none.
