The Hover Pack really "elevates" Arc Thrower gameplay

Having top down view means you can avoid zapping into corpses or obstacles, and instantly know which enemies to prioritize. Flying on top of chargers and one tap their butt with the Eruptor is also super nice.

Definitely my favorite from the new warbond.

how do you one tap a charger's butt from above?

Charger run towards you, you fly up turn around and shoot his butt.

the top of it's butt is armored? and shooting an eruptor point blank tends to kill the user

I found it useless. It doesn't arc as well into other enemies when fired downwards.

Flame weapons were alright with it, since you could both be torching an enemy, and setting the ground on fire, so they take damage from standing in that too.

Obviously explosives are the best, though.

You can one shoot chargers from the front.

Devs in their infinite wisdom were like; lets spawn all the shrapnel in this direction!

So if you shoot in that direction, you one-shot charger.

You don't. Butt has 950 HP with 80% durability. There's no primary or secondary that onetaps a charger. No matter where you hit it.

Except that Eruptor can, because devs are stupid.

If you shoot with Eruptor in the South-west direction, you will spawn the shrapnel into the enemy for the most part, thus one-tapping it.

Anyone tested the fun shrapnel bug is on the flak shells or frag grenades too?

I dont think I have seen anyone use the grenades or even the autocannon in a long while.
