Sniper Support Nerf? Or Jug bug?
I am currently playing on lethal everything. I tried once to kill a jug using around 80 7.56 ammo, with a sniper support. No explosives however. But never once even the juggernaut got downed to excecute. And I have killed jugs before even on a lethal save. This is something that seems to be a recent thing.

I also tried again with just sniper support but all shots land on juggernaut and it seems to shrug it off now. I remember before it only took around 5~8 shots for it be downed. Did something changed or is my game bugged?

Nothing has changed.

Juggernaut will go down so you can execute him if you shot him 4 times with a 50 cal weapon. You can also use the rear of the car and back into the juggernaut over and over until it is done for.

If you use any other ammo then 50 cal then be prepared to shot a lot at the juggernaut since it really is a bullet sponge enemy. I usually just avoid juggernauts or lure them away while driving in my car and having them follow me if I need to visit a specific location that a jug is guarding.

This guide shows how many gunshots you need to kill a Juggernaut on various difficulties.

There are 2 types of sniper support:
1- Enclaves' sniper support, they use 7.56 ammo.
2- Sniper tower' sniper support, they use 50 cal ammo <<< this is what you are looking for.

Wow I didn't know that. Thanks.

Also there is a Red Talon sniper support. Never used it because I stack my prestige points.

You need Sniper Tower that you can built only when BUILDER is Leader (Hero) of community.

Yeah I knew that, but I never noticed the caliber difference

ok it might be a one time thing or just my gun. i brought 120 shotgun this time for a duel and killed it.
.50 Cal on Lethal is ballsy.
