Not quite, railgun had superior rate of fire and pierce, so it could clear entire waves if properly kited. Quasar does a lot of damage but it can’t even oneshot a berserker.
They would strip off the leg armor in one shot so you could then shoot the exposed leg with your primary weapon. The devs called it the “leg meta” and agreed that it didn’t really make sense for that to be a better strategy than just shooting it in the head.
It’s 3 shots with the auto cannon in the tail and they bleed out. Same thing can be done with a lot of the primary weapons, it just takes a good amount of shots. Even the sickle can do it after changing heat sinks a couple times, you just have to matador them.
The butt is an explosive weak point. Non explosive weapons do 10% damage when striking it, where explosive type weapons do full damage. Charger butt, bile variant side sacks and the titan belly are all examples of these weak point and why most primary weapons struggle to kill these enemies.
They ought to revert the railgun nerf. Current quasar is way better then old railgun ever was

Not really, you had to manage its 20 rounds of spare ammo, which goes by real quick if you need to help finish off something like a bile titan.
Yeah, I feel like railgun was OP until they gave us other buffs like an EAT being able to one-shot a Charger.
Wait they didn’t before? What were they good for?

What REALLY doesn’t make sense is how shooting their exposed butt does basically nothing.

Explosives are the only way that is remotely ammo efficient. Half your primary ammo isn’t what I would call effective.
I can take one down with a sickle without needing to change a heat sync once, you just have to patient.
The new quasar cannon kills them in one shot to the face.
That’s not exactly feasible when you have to deal with all the other bugs that normally come with them.
