    It isn't. Kannon have 1600 OHKO spot, but not whole AOE.

    Read the twitch summary where they state that the Kannon's falloff is linear instead of logarithmic. After seeing the picture of the Kannon blast doing 424 damage, it looks like the weapon only works off of shell damage since frag damage maximum is 300. The design of the Kannon seems fine, its just not coded right.

    So really the Kannon doesn't need a nerf, it instead needs to be fixed.

    Unless I'm not seeing something...

    No one really uses the frag, you can fire it through windows and thats about it.

    Turned on the game today, joined a match, loaded up my Vet Dire Avenger and walked 20ft to have an invisible Kannon shot come from no where and instantly kill it.

    That is the perfect encapsulation of why people hate the Kannon.

    Don't pull vets vs orcs until they fix it, unless you're fine with it getting 1 shotted.

    I use my vet/revered Dire Avenger. He gets one shotted anyways.

    Because a super accurate large aoe of 1600 dmg that one shots everything it hits is kinda worth the hate, you answered the question in your OP

    my nurgle vet can take a plasma cannon shot TO THE FACE, but cant live at the very outskirts of a kannon shot.

    Your Nurgle vet can take a 380 damage shot but a 200 damage shot kills him?
