Something the patch notes didn't mention: the OPS seems to have its cooldown reduced to 77 seconds.
I may be mistaken, but I swear it was something like 90s a week ago...

I thought something was off with ADS recently, glad they got it fast

I'm so casual, I didn't even notice.

Probably very loadout dependent too, I have been playing a lot of bots with the diligence counter sniper and AMR, so I do a lot of ADS

Double sickle now sucks. The charge up time for armour pen makes it useless vs striders

It did feel too good. Like made the other laser weapons look bad.

I think they should buff all lasers, because now all of them are bad again

With the downgrade in ammo capacity for the grenade launcher they have effectively nerfed both weapons in the war bond.

I've not been playing regularly recently but I'm even less interested now.

Nah just give the double a try against bugs or illuminate, shred small stuff, then change targets to medium stuff. Works pretty good with fire resistant armor. The damage increase is also great.

Iirc you hit better breakpoints with 70 (or 65) damage

On the contrary, it now goes up to pen 4 so if you're willing and able to literally take the heat you can shred them in seconds.

But it starts at light pen same as the sickle. A double should start at medium.

I dare you to stand in front of a hulk or a devastator and get to pen 4 without dieing

Remove the "without dying" part and I have *^*

... or the "devastator" part, I still shred those
