Then why are you bitching about melta suicide? It isn't like melta bombs aren't giant blinking purple beacons or anything. If you are using a klaw then again WHY ARE YOU BITCHING? If it is so slow then you'd be able to see somebody trying to just jet away from you and likely and dropping the nade on their tail to try to catch you. So either you are shit with melee and still not learning to not slam everybody and expect nothing bad to happen Or you are a liar and you are a powersword/choppa/melee spammer in general and mad that people are getting tired of light attacks catching up with fucking sprints and rolls because dbash is fucking trash
You do know you can stick the melta bomb ONTO a character right? Like instantly with no animation to interrupt right? And then some mongoloid teammate or hell even an enemy swings in the clusterfuck that ALL melee turns out to be and it instantly goes off. WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY TODAY MONGO? YOU'RE GOING TO PUT @ANGRY-MARINE OUT OF A JOB MAN.
Just tried the Melta again. Well, all I can say is: time to remove it from my loadouts. It's been a good run. Melta bomb did 50% dmg to the rear of a Predator. I needed 2 full bursts to disable it after that, not even to destroy it. Cooldown seems longer, too. It's useless. Maybe Multi-Melta is different, but then again I felt it was fairly terrible before the nerf. If it has even less damage now, why even bother destroying vehicles anymore? You're more likely to die by spawning enemies on a rhino than actually destroying the damn thing.
Oh my god...a Melta bomb and two charges? Wow...that's so terrible... ...not. You guys have been spoiled so long you don't know what a reasonable TTK looks like anymore I guess.
Because practically no one on these forums were even talking about the Melta Bomb, it was all how OP Melta's are. So this is a case of listening to whine that had a direct influence on how to balance them. I agree, it was to extreme, but again the issue really never was with Melta. Before this patch, people driving their vehicles around were having no problems keeping them alive for a long time, and it is a valid strat to deplete vehicles spawn of enemy, now I suspect that is not going to be an issue.
Just stating my opinion, really. They can keep the nerf for all I care. However, I'm not going to use weapons that have been rendered close to utterly useless. Aside from the Stalker Bolter on my Space Marine, that is. My sweet little chaos Melta will be in the shelf from now on tho'.
*Meanwhile in Sigvalds game* AHAHAHAHAHAHA, BURN YOU LOYALIST MOTHERFUCKERS, SCREAM AND BURN, AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I'm still going to wreck your Imperial Accura's and Ork Jalopys because you park them on the front lawn and leave them undefended.
Too late, already got a 20+ killstreak with new meltaguns improved infantry damage. As you might imagine, the opposing team was less then pleased in the post match chat.
