    Yeah I take it back. Watched someone play with it and it’s still half decent at wave clear, but it took 4 shots to kill spewers and that’s actually garbage.

      I think that may not be accounting for the recent undocumented buff to spewers. They take a lot more shots then they used to from any weapon I’ve tried in the last week.

        Maybe, but having a 5 shot magazine on an explosive gun and spending 4 rounds and several seconds to kill what is a very common enemy on higher difficulties is bad feels. Especially because they still seem to die just fine to a single impact grenade.

          I totally agree with you that it doesn’t feel good. I’ve just noticed a trend with the game that every time they patch five items in the game, there are at least 2 unintended or at least unmentioned changes to other things. It probably has to do with the game being built on an obsolete engine Autodesk stopped selling in 2018, that’s being pushed well beyond what it was designed for.
