FIX ARC-12 Blitzer

[Temper]

It becomes USELESS when there are dead bodies and terrain next to the alive enemies. You point at the alive enemy and the arc goes to the terrain or the dead bodies of the enemies.

Or when there is nothing between you and the enemy it decides to not fire but still makes the initial blast out the barrel... fun times.

And usually, in such intervals between unreliable shooting, the bugs manage to call for reinforcements...

Yeah, this thing sucks. I'd rather use the S-2124 then the Blitzer.

[Plank]

my favorite is when it focuses on a bush, a bush! Nothing hairier then having something come at you and your weapons likes the bush more.

I actually enjoy the thing, but at different height compared to the target, its a bit unreliable

[BiG COUCH GAMERz]

ya complaining about a gun that LITERALLY HAS UNLIMITED AMMO AND HAS THE FASTEST RELOAD TIME IN THE GAME.. id pick blitzer over power or speed. the one gun that will stunn lock a stalker hell even 2 at a time, long enough for ur team to blow them apart(PAUSE)
HANDS DOWN the best gun against buds and squidos, but against bots and on higher and lower ground shooting up or down is really hit or miss. found out the hard way arc weapons ARCH better if u always aim higher than where u want to shoot

[Jammerz Skip]

all "lock on" weapons have that issue. the spear, arc thrower and blitzer have that issue.

literally any terrain or dead body event slightly blocking the target can mess up the targeting

inevitably there's gotta be a redditor to defend the game even if it's a literal bug that needs to be fixed
"no you're the problem, skill issue SKILL ISSUE, REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE !!!"

Gun is good enough and I main it for Bugs and Illuminate. If it was buffed in anyway it would be insanely OP

Not a bug, but a quirk. Even the Arcthrower will chain to dead bodies. It's a trait that works for you if you know how to use it.

The first post mentions terrain
The targetting of electric weapons is wacky, like many things in this game

[Fallen SeeD]

Yes, it is awesome against bugs, you can easily stun lock stalkers until it decides to randomly not work even though the last 3-4 hits were on point.
Aiming higher can work most of the time, until again it decides to not fire after 2-3 hits (both blitz and thrower).
And yet, I still use the thrower for squids since it can handle all the current enemies even with its "quirks".

The blitzer has been my weapon of choice on Illuminates and i can't say i notices "wanky targeting" or it hitting terrain when i wasn't aiming at it.

i do
many other people so
although fixing arc weapons should probably be on the lower side of the priority list
