Excellent piece of equipment now turned into a poop , takes about all the rockets to down 1 bile and the mechs destroy very easily... who comes up with these changes?.

I have noticed zero changes to damage or health. The only thing that was changed was related to aiming
are people mad that they can not aim down with rockets still

The mech can 1-2 shot bile titans, you just have to AIM for weak spots not blindly fire all over it. Confirmed right now. Same goes with Recoilless/Spear all three being able to 1-2 shot bile titans and chargers when hitting the mouth.

Also a tip for the mech's machinegun is burst fire it, don't hold it down or you blow through ammo. Mech alone can solo several swarms and kill 5-6 bile titans if you use it well conserving your ammo.

as of playing last night no changes but the annoying rocket self-destruct fix that means at close range ur rockets are not lined up. aim a bit to the right of the target area when the charger is real close/charging, as a point of reference when I aim for the left charger leg I go head and it usually works. For biles imo they don't really get close enough for the effect to kick in since if they're that close you better be backing up anyways, maybe a tiny deviation to the right if they're on top of you

not mouth. Hit the forehead as it's much more generous and they're independent-ish health pools. Agree w the rest.

and it's 2 to the forehead for biles. EAT/recoiless shot to the forehead, single railcannon, single burst of eagle rocket pods, partial connect of 500kg equate to roughly the same damage as 1 mech forehead rocket shot. Say roughly as sometimes the damage doesn't translate and a bile still stands even when the shots have been supposedly verified but its a rare occurrence.

2 charger forehead shots or 1 leg shot + ~30 rounds. I've tested the leg shot over and over and 30 seems about right

The spear can 1 shot them. The recoiless can't.
The only way you can 1 shot a titan with a recoiless or EAT is when the titan is affected bye the health bug that makes them weaker, at that point even a railgun can 1 shot them, plenty of videos on youtube about that.

wtf are you on about?

The point of that nerf is to make equipment less OP so that challenging modes are still challenging

Eh.. On the fence for this one. The rocket pod does seem to take more rockets to kill most enemies.
It use to be one shot to a weakpoint, two on bile titan face.

3-4 for a charger kill if you only use the rockets on none weak points, 6-8 on bile titans as long as you hit the torso.

Bile titans either got buffed or the mech got nerfed. It takes 3 headshots or more for a bile titan but I can still instant kill a charger on a headshot.

It now takes 8- 10 rockets if not all of them to kill a bile titan, Chargers can take up too 6 -7 rockets to the torso before they die if you're only using rockets.

Stripping armor still works as intended, but the rocket damage itself is a lot weaker.

On a side note: I've had 3 out of 8 matches where I call a mech and it immediately explodes upon landing.

read updated comment. Still 2 shotting freshly spawned titans and minigun seems the same so I must disagree
