Ullapool caber nerf?

[Mint]

I heard there was one, and the fact that the price of it has halved on the market seems to support that, what is the nerf?

[I'm Error (Alt)]

Ullapool Caber:
Reduced explosion base damage from 100 to 75
Reduced damage ramp up bonus for close range attacks. Now is the same as other explosive weapons.

i dont get this nerf. :(
That weapon was rarely used. People used it only for fun. Why Valve removes the fun from the game?

Because it was pretty OP and could instakill most classes, and multiple at the same time with full health when a demo is charging up their face with it.
That might be the reason?

It had only one use then you had to go to supply depot and restore.

Yes it only had one use, but you can easily get back to spawn, and those enemies you killed will still be dead, unless the server has insta-respawn

Caber now deals only 106 (maybe 108 dmg, not sure) per hit. So it doesn't kill anyone in one hit. Also, it doesn't launch you up after you hit someone with it.

In short, it sucks and is not worth using anymore.

RIP Ullapool Caber :(

Now, I have to use Scotsman Skullcutter if I want to terrorise snipers in the same way.

Would be easier for them to delete the item. It would save some inventory slots and more useful items would drop rather than this useless pile of junk metal.

Btw i thought it was the goal to instant kill somebody with crit kill here. Now there is no need to use it at all because you do some selfdamage and usualy get killed using this weapon.

Can't valve just increase self-damage or add a vulnerability penalty
