Jammer Rig is just absolute dog???
Used it for the first time since it's apart of tasks and it's just absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. It's fully upgraded and does basically nothing? The only use for it is to open locks while everything else is either worthless or takes too much time to use.

For example using it on enemies just makes them vomit a little, they still attack and follow you and it goes away immediately. That's if you even get the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing to work since it takes 10 years to actually activate and if there's even the smallest obstacle or you get hit it immediately goes right back to ZERO charge???

Is there even a point in using any rig other than Stun at this point?

Jammer rig is actually really really good in solo. It's basically the swiss army knife of rigs. I would try using it again because it can be suuuuper helpful.

The only thing I find it remotely useful for is reviving... for a task. The rest is pointless, waste of a slot.

Yeah it’s not really good imo. I use it just for fun sometimes but stun is still king.
You can use it to:
  • Disarm alarm doors so that they don't spawn a new expops
  • Go through mannequin doors and rolling gates at will (such as the ones in Destroy the Evidence and Stash the Contraband)
  • Pass through padlock doors without needing a lockpick
  • Destroy TVs without a projectile
  • Open the secret room door solo even in multiplayer

I tried it again instead just focusing on traps and it's still garbage

None of that is even remotely worth a rig slot for, which is what annoys the hell out of me.

It's best to use in combination with a Stun user. You're basically feeding them so many rig rechargers, that it can feel like stun + jammer cause as many stuns 3-4 stun users. (though in bigger groups i would still not go over 1 jammer and in groups of 2 i personally still prefer double stun, since you more often than not go seperate ways anyway)

This sounds like a bunch of people that can't get off the crutch that is stun.

Quit getting caught. Stun is for those with a skill issue. Simple as.

It's more like it's a useless rig that needs to be reworked. Even in a group it's just better to get the secret room and grab the master key or choose a different rig. Hell Barricade is the main one I'm using now since it can stall the Jaeger for a few seconds and pings her.

The game isn't hard, but ♥♥♥♥ me if they want us to use other rigs then they need to make them useful. Jammer just isn't good, especially since it's highest upgrade "Corrupt Enemies" is basically unusable and its range isn't far enough to make up for it

X: „Whats the best rig in the trials?“
Y: „Would say it’s stun.“
Mr.Bubbles: „LOL skill issue!“

Yeah makes sense.
