Powerfist sucks now

[Jumbogrunt]

I don't understand what they were trying to do here. It has almost no range, and the light attack is awful, but at least pre-nerf if you got a charge attack off you could get a kill which is pretty hard to get off if playing a low-armor class like assault, but now after the charge attack damage nerf there is literally no reason to use this thing over the hammer.

The powerfist is a bit overtuned and now it sucks. They should really reverse the nerf.

the misunderstanding of power fist is range, no it not really shoot shock wave far away from you, mostly. the fist drove you forward very far to hit the target. the shock wave from charge attack is like a small cone forward to improve hitbox on the side of the main target.
power fist is really not PVE friendly the combat knife works much better even dealing with mobs the damage dealing is seem to always be somewhat disappointed until you get to final tier. but in pvp it is a funny jumpscare weapon tho.

(In PvP) Before nerf you could one shot full hp enemy with minimum charge.
So no thanks to that, but they could maybe make the minimum charge a bit more stronger, but not "one shot" thing.

What nerf are you talking about?

The "we are making charged attack perks stronger for Power Fist" nerf?

Edit: Ohhh, its about PvP, you should say that.

I thin it should one-shot. It falls short of the hammer in almost every regard, and like I said in the post, even with the light charge attack you'd be lucky to land on someone and get it off before dying

nobody uses powerfist since it is trash in PVP. hits slower, loses trading, no range, and with nerf strong charged attack deals no damage. I see no reason to pick it up even in PVE since it is slow AF and minoris enemies need same 3 smacks as swords to kill itm, but PF does it sloooower. it should be 1v1 super strong anti-armor onepunchman, now it is more like wet towel slap
