    As a tip Njord, the autolock system in melee is notoriously unreliable and regularly results in delayed hits. Even in your video you can see the enemy fire dragon attempting to swing at you as well (and thus winding up in the position he was). Try running it a bit without the autolock, you'll have a lot more control and after a while you'll be able to time your strikes with more efficiency.

    Just to put it out there, I'm not writing this as a douche trying to say "lol git gud", I'm just making an honest assessment that will hopefully help you in the future. I know it's made a huge difference whenever I'm wielding a powerfist, as with that the autolock is downright awful.

    In fairness, the OP does say that Brent thinks it's over-nerfed in this patch, so assuming it'll be over-nerfed isn't really hyperbole.

    I am in fact more worried that he mentioned accuracy than damage. The missiles already fly all over the place, not just when charging a full barrage, even on a single tap shot, making it a matter of sheer luck of hitting anything but a vehicle at long range. Meanwhile, other factions can lascannon one-hit people from half the map away.

    So, I guess they just don't want to striking scorpions in at all? Without that surprise attack damage it is going to be basically impossible to take down high level ranged classes and there is no way we can stand toe to toe with real melee classes.

    Guess it's time to be a warlock.

  5. Zapgun is pretty much everything we said we never wanted to see from THQ's Lacannon. It's a sniper rifle.

    While I"m all for Orks getting their proper due(I love Orks played a lvl 100 Choppa in Warhammer Online), the Zapgun epitomizes all that was wrong with the THQ Lascannon in PVP. Whatever we learned from THQ SM game and applied to the Lascannon, we miraculously forgot when the Zapgun was created.

    Are we going to start getting EXP for using embolden or protect anytime soon? Protect at least requires quite a lot of risk and it should certainly reward players for using it.

    And as I read more and more of the thread, I can begin to taste the salty Eldar tears.

    I just wish , while they give us so much attention as Eldars players , they could give us back a dodge that's work properly on the scorp.

    I just wish they would over nerf all the plasma cannons too. Those things are also silly and make pretty much every match with one a chore.

    i hope they do that... and please a light attack for the claw that hits the enemy would be nice too!:D
