Remove Hard Breach charges

[Dread]

Made like 4 operators useless. You can say Thermite and Hibana are still useful and situational which is correct. But overall they aren't as crucial as before. It's like giving every defense operator a trap making Kapkan or Lesion less useful. Still good operators but just less useful overall.

I'm also noticing(after come back from a year or so) that a lot of the map reworks made it so they look more like training exercises rather than real situations. Old House >New House
Old Chalet > New Chalet. But thats just a tangent, not needed for the main argument.

So shooting Hibana pellets from range is useless compared to running up to the wall, making a small vault hole with the hard breach gadget?

When I'm playing a hard-carry operator such as Ying? Absolutely, it makes Ace and even Hibana look like a joke, and if most matches didn't already have a dedicated hard breach, I'd consider that a very legitimate option

If only you knew how to not contradict yourself. You started off by saying "Made like 4 operators useless"

Ace is more versatile to open 1 reinforced wall and 1 rainforced hatch or 3 crouch holes in walls or 1 crouch hole & 1 hatch, etc.
Hibana is more versatile to disable aruni, open up to 3 hatches, many crouch able holes in reinforced walls, etc.
Thermite is faster than the hard breach charge, and is harder to bandit / kaid trick compared to that side gadget. Also he can open 2 reinforced walls or hatches or even 3 walls in some maps.
Maverick denies Kaid / Bandit tricking completely, can destroy bullet proof utility, with enough practices he can open up 3 hatches & 1 crouch able hole in a wall or complete reinforced walls made a soft walls too.

TL:DR. Is the hard breach secondary gadget strong? Yes. Is it broken / OP and makes the other "primary hard breach gadgets" useless / irrelevant? Nope, in it's current state.

And yet defenders still have a MASSIVE advantage over attackers.

No, just no. Hard breach brings a lot of utility for attackers that they sorely need. It makes them much more flexible.
