new wasp launcher is quite damn strong

[Chadstream Onion]

range up to 80 meters, does quite huge damage and has artilery mode (which is bugged i guess but it might be my skill issue) if we would get it as strategem permamently i would just reduce range

[McFuzz]

yeah i cant wait for it to be 700 supercredits next week

[Chadstream Onion]

i hope it wont be THAT much, i know its crossover gun from Killzone but hey, it would be fun to use it but not for 700 credits, we have currency in game which is useless after like 70 hours?

Spear max range 50? what on earth are you on about?

spear max lockin on range is 50 meters, i tried few times to lock onto targets that are further but i couldnt, i had to get closer up to 50 meters

I could lock onto stuff miles away with the spear, the range is not 50m... I've fired at bot cannon towers from across the map with it

You're not making a strong case of knowing about the game with comments like these.
Spear can lock on things hundreds of meters away you just can't have stuff on the way to achieve that lock on.

That sounds like a skill issue. I have used it on targets 100m away at least

really? I had quite the bad experience with it like needing 6 full magazines just to get a shield on a ship down which you can usually do with a magazines worth of primary weapon. Maybe its just not the intended purpose for the wasp but seeing how low the damage output was I didnt bother testing it on anything else

[Malidictus]

What is the WASP even for? It's a cluster munition weapon so you'd think it would be good against infantry, but it can't lock on to them. It's a targeted weapon, but it seems to lack either the damage or the armour penetration (or both) to take out armoured targets. I'm struggling to identify what it's even supposed to be used against.

You've been playing yourself. You empty a primary mag into it and then shoot it with the WASP.

Look, i made this thread about Wasp launcher not spear, if you say so it locks at even further distances let it be, im fine with this i tried bunch of times on automatons spear and it couldnt lock onto enemies might be skill issues, might be bugs, or might be me who's not paying attention that much about matches and games

wasp has 2 modes, for now most of people use it on harvesters or these flying squids or ones with shield, tbh? damage is decent, range is good, reload is quite fast sadly airstrike mode is bit buggy? tried it few times by now and rocket seems to explode mid air not even coming close to enemies

[Get Donked On]

strong? it feels like an auto cannon you cant aim properly. its only good for mediums and even then its questionable with its rockets not coming out of the barrel and sometimes just hittin the floor. its nice that it 1 taps overseers but overseers are pretty dang squishy as far as medium enemies go. It usually feels like its both overkill and at the same time too unreliable whilst being basically completly worthless vs heavies

can toggle onto squids with jetpacks and the ones with shield, sometimes it can one shot them or needs few more rounds, this thing needs 2/3 bursts into harvester and its gone ( damage on them seems to be quite randomized? or it might be rockets hitting random spots on harvester's)

even with the shield down minimum is 3 bursts from what i can tell thats not exactly low. thats basically half the total ammo supply and 2 reloads at least. not exactly a steller TTK or even a good way to kill em. and that 3 full bursts minimum from what i can tell this unreliable hunka junk sometimes even needs 4 or 5 wich is basically everything.

and yes its alright at killing overseers as I said. big whoop those die to a liberator aimed semi well. and thats vs squids on the other 2 fronts it would probably fare even worse.
