Anyone notice Eldar changes not in the notes?

    Cloudsweeper increased in price, for one. Woo, more nerfs.

    In my mind unlisted changes raise the question of whether it's worse that changes were made and not publically acknowledged or that changes were made and insufficiently communicated within the team itself.

    Cloudsweeper itself needs to be either a strictly cosmetic option or granted actual modification slots. RTC weapons in general have this problem of either being too good or nearly worthless and considering that in normal market terms they'd be upwards of $10 USD per I think not resolving their status would be a tangible error. Or see also the Skyraider's Kiss. The $10 cosmetic upgrade. Kind of like the $5 pauldrons. Pauldron, rather.

    Actually the change to the cost of Cloudsweeper illustrates the problem with "horizontal progression" in that if what I'm paying more for is little actual mechanical changes than why bother with weapon upgrades when I can get real improvements out of things like armor and trinkets?

    But nevermind that. What else is different?

    I'll pay that much for orkz to be able to instant kill vehicles like dragons do.

    Reapers got their Back pole

    And Reaper Launcher Accuracy has been buffed

    Still bad though since you need direct hits with at least 4 missiles and it's hard to do that with how slow the projectiles move.

    Toughness is back up to 100 instead of 80 (at least for Scorpions, Fire Dragons, and Reapers).

    It was always like this

    One change I've noticed that wasn't in the notes is that the Haywire grenades now have a far less immediate effect on vehicles than previously.

    They now slow a vehicle down a bit but no longer cause them to stop in their tracks as before, in addition to the effect seeming not to last quite so long.

    Dude, everything I see you post in the Eldar forums is always so biased and toxic against them, especially when they are not the only ones of said capability.

    As opposed to space marines who seem to be able to use multi-meltas as infantry destroying sniper rifles, at least when they bother taking them since it would mean less plasma spam if so and seem to retain effectiveness against vehicles right out to their maximum range and for very limited time on target with the fusion beam.
