    I’ve seen people claim it’s over powered but I’m thinking it’s appropriatly set for it’s intended target and we’ve not come up against the reason it’s been added.

    Also the guy at the map table said something about who is masterminding the Automatons plans. I’m thinking Illuminate are coming and this is for them.

      People who say it’s OP have never tried the EAT. Or they are salty recoilless enjoyers (I do think the non-disposable recoilless deserves a few buffs. Maybe a little faster self reloads and/or 1 more rocket in the backpack)

      Illuminates had no heavy armor at all in HD1, even the faction boss had only medium armor IIRC. The only use I had for my trusty EAT against them was to easily 1shot the obelisks when they started to open up.

          Yeah the spear is just trash right now unfortunately. At the very least it needs to have more reliable lock on, better homing because how the fuck am I missing more shots with the space javelin than with the dumbfire RRs ? And it wouldn’t hurt to get 2 rockets from ammo pickups instead of 1.

          Also the recoilless has 1 single advantage over the EAT (aside from the obvious ammo count) in that it can shoot as soon as you equip it, whereas the EAT has some dust cover thingy that needs to be opened (and closed if you stow it)

          I mean, with someone loading the recoilless it isn’t even long loading, pretty effective AT volume of fire
