Tried using that new zapcannon.....the long charge up, low damage, and blue visible lazer make it pretty much useless. I'd take a deffcannon anyday over this thing. A weapon like this should have been treated more like an autocannon and less like a zap.
Garbage. That's what we've been getting the past 6 patches. And that's what we got right now. The only glint of happy we had was the Big Shoota buff and I had to scream for that 2 months in a row.
As far as I heard from Eldar-players, the Fusion-gun (priced 780 lp) is overpriced, but definitely good. It takes double the amount of time to overheat compared to normal meltas, meaning that it can almost down a tank on its own in just a single burst. It is also very powerful against infantry. It does however not allow the taking of the melta-bundle and restricts survival-gear. Dunno about the reaper-launcher, but someone said that it is the standard by which other reaper launchers should be measured.
I think that's (Partly) to nake sure it's not used en mass. we all know what fusion guns do to infantry. Now imagine the same damage with twice the firing before overheat?
More knee jerk changes by devs that have no clue about the game they are working on. Who the hell would take burnt over poison? Who the hell would take zzap when there is the ace dakka? Get a grip devs we need a weapon that can clank more maybe a dock claw? Weaker than normal claw but quicker attacks get it done already
Only redeeming factor for the burny syringe would be that the burn damage is not hindered by the inherent poison-resistance of Eldar, Mark of Nurgle and Vets but... going to melee as dok in the first place is rarely desirable, even getting there is pretty hard. Not to mention it's hilariousely overpriced for the little it does.
Oh look, Orks have been pushed to the side so the devs can give more toys to the space/chaos marines. Color me surprised.
