Super Mutants with laser rifles

[Arcanix]

Something is wrong. They one-shot me and destroy my armour with 2-3 shots.

Logged to check this. Didn't experience much laser fire, but their firing distance (PER?) and armor penetration has been tweaked, uniformly enough to suggest it's not a bug. Apparently armor piercing explosives that ignore resistances, too.
Wtf?

Its a bug that shows up every other update , Its almost like the dev team members all have deferent compilation of the server files

Too complicated. Simply shoot the muties before they shoot you! :VBCOOL:

Yeah considering it would not prevent ballistic or melee damage, lol.

Super mutant 1: "Stupid laser no work"
Super mutant 2:"Smash it with a hammer"
Super mutant 1 smashes the laser rifle with a hammer.
Super mutant 2: "No smash the human."
Super mutant 1: "No smash human with hammer?"
Super mutant 2: "Kill the human"
Super mutant 1: "Kill human how?"
Super mutant 2 hand Super mutant 1 a mini nuke.
Super mutant 2: "Now go"
Super mutant 1 arms mini nuke with a beeping sound.
Super Mutant 1: "Hot potato!"
Mini nuke explodes killing super mutant 1 and human.
Super mutant 2: "Aw no more fun."

1 - Energy weapons got buffed in the last patch, they now work right for damage calculations, which is to say they do 69%-240% more damage
2 - The weapons super mutants use the energy ones are typically more damaging than their counterparts so the energy ones will hit harder
3 - Servers often fail to load various perks correctly so you can enter a server with several failed loads on defensive perks
4 - Servers often fail to load equipment properly, resulting in player weapons that have the wrong things attached (rarely permanently changing the weapon from one thing to another... more often its mods that are loaded wrong so that it thinks that a prime one is doing the damage of something else)... The same with armour, where it loads the wrong values or effects on mods on the armour... I would assume if it does it for players it probably does for enemies too

Often being subjective where often is 1/100 or so times enough that its not a rare or infrequent issue which would be 1/100,000 or a nearly non existent one which would be 1/100,000,000

Makes me think someone's disgruntled, no joke..

[Groogo]

My team mate and I are both being one-hit by laser armed robots and super mutants. it's a whole new game until the bug is addressed, go carefully.

good :tdealwithit:

That event is easy because you can make a Troubleshooter T-65 set and reroll to get a good vampire weapon.

[Machika]

Maybe they are doing head shots? Certain bots like robobrains have this one attack that does too much damage. Power Armor helps against that one attack tremendously.

[[BHA] Parazac]

damn, wondered how i died in 1 shot to them while in full T-65

was like i was attacking them butt naked!

[Bored Peon]

I wonder if it is something like ghouls gaining the ability to self destruct and Mr Gutsy using an assaultron's stealth.

Only they are gaining that ignore armor attack you normally only see in operations.
