    Good god I feel like a glass cannon now.

    Been running light armor ‘demo man’ since launch and while I do love all the changes, I feel super squishy at the moment. Maybe it’s from me getting complacent playing diff 6 missions and then doing nothing but 10s last night, maybe it was bad luck, and maybe it was using kind of meme builds to test changes, I can’t be sure…

    Most bugs were casually two piecing me in a combo attack I could do literally nothing about if the first hit. Getting hit by a charger was likely a death sentence, even if the initial hit didn’t kill. I feel like I need some kind of pathetic roll in dirt move to give myself some space before I try to stand up.

    But all in all, I’m a glass cannon now, and I need to act like it and keep the bugs away at all times.

    Bots got nerfed.

    Big difference with levels.

    Pre patch I would spend most of my time on lvl 4 just to unwind after lunch, some days they seemed like lvl 7 on Meth…nuts. I would venture to the bugs once in awhile and there was a big difference in intensity. They now seem on par with each other…and I have to go up a couple levels to get that same crazy bot magic.

    Used Air Burst, Knives, Pummeler, and all 3 mines. I could not stop laughing as I used up all our reinforcements.
