Rocket Strider > Factory Strider

How come i can tank 2-3 shots from the largest enemy in the game, a walking tank that spawns more tanks, but a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ star wars walker oneshots me through heavy armor + shield + a literal physical wall?

The gatling on factory strider kills me more than rocket strider. I think both are fine.

Bro, I've literally have had more impact deaths from a rocket striders missile than I've had from a Factory Striders gatling barrage.

And that's not even taking into account the direct missile kills.

Even then the factory strider only needs one RR shot to the to kill it and the scout striders have a ridiculously higher spawn rate than the factory.

I mean, statistically you are running against more scout strider than factories, so makes sense. Plus one is an easily under-estimated enemy and the other is a steel giant that no one on the squad is dumb enough to ignore.

Honestly they just need to replace some rocket striders with scout strider spawns.

Why do scouts stop appearing? They're literally the scouts who should make up the patrols. Make rocket striders only garrison outposts and be reinforcements then the problem is solved IMO.

But factory striders are also suppose to be near boss level enemies.

But now all they need is a single RR shot to the eye to kill and that's a lot more easier to do than people realize.

Rocket Striders are much smaller units, but there rockets are much more deadly in that they can even affect you through cover.

Obviously not something a factory striders gatling guns can do.

That definitely explains it all. FR gatling guns are ok to kill up close (they're two anyway) but RR rockets are beyond bugged as of now - and have been since they first came into the game.
