autocannon has only been winning since launch

[@Scarpheon]

Perks of being the CCO’s precious child. They called the auto-cannon the “golden state of weapon balance”

[@warkiller]

@@Scarpheon To be fair, the fact that the auto-cannon has an ammo backpack is what help keep the balance on it. If there was no ammo backpack like the railgun, it would have been really OP and suffered from many nerfs like what happened to the Railgun.

[@whilliamblamet187]

I’m not sure the buff was warranted. I won’t complain, but the reason for the sentry staggering enemies when the autocannon doesn’t has always been the respective cannon bore. The sentry fires 40mm rounds, while the autocannon fires 20mm. Quite simply twice the burst mass. Edit: I checked it, the sentry projectile is in fact nearly eight times the weight that of the support weapon at near a full kilogram. I’m pretty certain that more than would explain stagger for one and not the other.

Ending in a joke was even better. Now I know what to invest in!

[@Limit19970]

Autocannon has been able to stagger Hulks since the major rebalance patch where they reduced the frontal armour class of Hulks. I believe it was the day 30 patch (as opposed to the day 60 patch). No idea why everyone is saying this is new...

[@deliqene3191]

Cause its never been able to really do it in a single shot, so consistently. It normally takes a large amount of fire to do it, not 1 shot fucking anywhere

[@Prockski]

lol when I mentioned this I felt crazy as literally no one backed me up. I just felt like I was insane.

[@wRatte]

lol - that bit at the end was funnx :D

[@Aveniz]

Honestly i swaped to laser canon, autocanon say ''heavy armor penetrating'' but it just deal way too low dmg + on 9-10 difficulty where u can go against 1-2 normal/behemoth chargers + that tentacle charger or spore charger + bile titans...C tier for bugs, A tier for automatons

[@Scarpheon]

@@Aveniz maybe I should make a vid about every enemy’s weak spot. Surprisingly, the impalers are one of the easiest to take out, followed by the chargers.

[@Aveniz]

@@Scarpheon and if u wanna take autocanon against bugs for some reason, i recommend to aim for charger's leg instead of head. As soon as u destroy leg armor u can just finish it with primary weapon

[@anemoiacos_ob5080]

im an omen??

[@koderboi9280]

thats pretty good but it still takes 20 shots to kill the charger lol, use a rocket launcher or a single thermite

[@robertschaffer596]

Hmm was there a need to buff it? Autocannon is a community favorite and overused like hell since launch. I feel like this should have been the last support weapon to get any kind of buff

[@mahkxj1703]

Feels more like a nerf. Needa get the rythmn right for double tapping hulks now

[@Scarpheon]

It’s not too bad. Just fire, wait for them to look back up, and fire again without moving the sights.

[@mahkxj1703]

@Scarpheon my impatient ass cant deal w the pause between shots LOL

It had stagger before and still does. I don’t believe it changed.

[@viewsan]

was this a stealth buff? I didn't see anything in the patch notes 🤔

[@Scarpheon]

@@viewsan Yes, it was.

[@heytherejarvis]

sadly, a quasar will always outclass a grenade launcher and autocannon, one hit to the head, enemy is dead. Unlimited ammo too.

[@samsonchan7496]

"Second charger? Hold on, wait 15 seconds for my Queso cannon to charge up again" Meanwhile: "PLAM PLAM PLAM PLAM PLAM PLAM PLAM PLAM PLAM reloading! *1.7s later* PLAM PLAM PLAM....."

[@Scarpheon]

Outclass? No. More viable options? Yes.

[@UrbanArmada]

Love the quasar, but the cooldown seems too long for higher levels when heavies are being tossed at you like no tomorrow.

[@deadboz6007]

I prefer the recoiless gun: more damage as a quasar, faster "reload", and fires the ships of the enemies of the sky. Second Autocannon ... But every Mission and enemy needs the own way to solve it. If the bug egg is on the mission, the quasar is the better option.

[@raiva1963]

I don't know how you guys can play with the Quasar. I kill one charger, and now there are 4 other chargers running at me and my Quasar is on cooldown for like 15 whole seconds. With the Recoilless Rifle, I find a safe position, and I can pop a shot out every 5 seconds. The Quasar doesn't really let me hold ground.

[@J.B.1982]

Personally, I only use it on bots. I call it the 'can opener'. It sucks on Overseers and mediocre on Harvesters. Sort of mid on bugs.

[@mfd8346]

10 shots + 1 stun nade and 30 seconds to take down a lone charger is garbo

[@TylerStupid]

10 shots for 1 charger doesn’t seem that good. The auto cannon is by far my most used support weapon however, I feel like it’s outclassed by most heavy supports such as the recoiless.

[@Scarpheon]

@@TylerStupid Well at least if you have a rocket sentry or a teammate around, you can stun it until they kill it.

[@blimber]

Its much better than any heavy weapon against medium enemies, hordes and can close a lot of bug holes and have spare bullets. And you can kill charger with 3 shts to ass, so no autocannon not outclassed

[@UrbanArmada]

Autocannon is a workhorse. It doesn't need to excel at killing enemies head-on if it does the job, I suppose. You'll usually have 3 other divers backing you up anyway.

[@J.B.1982]

It's for medium enemies with utility on low tier and heavy but I only use it on bots. It's okay on bugs, sucks on squids.

[@Scarpheon]

@@blimberThis. There are many other ways to kill a charger much quicker than to the head. This video was a showcase of its stagger. The shot count was added just if you wanted to know how much. Maybe I should make a “More than one way to kill a charger” vid..

[@gbishel]

too much buffs! I bet they are cooking dif. 11 and 12

[@Scarpheon]

@@gbishel I disagree. After the 60 day plan, 90% of primaries and support weapons are now viable. If difficulty is what you seek, try exotic builds.

[@TIMOSTERRORS]

I’m one of the people that thinks the auto cannon is dog water 😂. I’ll give it a go with this stagger buff. See if that helps :)

[@J.B.1982]

For me, it's good on bots and that's it. It's mid on bugs, sucks on squids.

[@Scarpheon]

How so? I am interested to know what support weapon you’d consider really good then.

[@TIMOSTERRORS]

@ I find it’s way too cumbersome a weapon, but the reward isn’t ever worth it imo. The only front it’s worth it on is the bots imo. If you want chaff clear a grenade launcher works better, if you want anti tank the amr works better. Both these weapons have a reload you can move with and they free your backpack slot. Plus exclusive to the auto cannon- the only weapon you can’t force a reload unless the conditions are right. (5 or less bullets) Often leaving you with a unfull mag. Even the crossbow (which I know is a warbond exclusive) does something similar with all the positives of the previously mentioned weapons. Only time I can say the auto cannon is useful is if one person takes it and slowly has the squad outfitted with it through out the mission.

[@TIMOSTERRORS]

Just my opinion, nothing against auto cannon divers 🫡
