Give me a railgun that doesn’t tickle, and the anti material rifle should be a standard issue weapon
Signed, the designated marksman of my team
It blows my mind that the railgun is still bad after they released the Quasar Cannon, considering the QC is better at killing heavies than the railgun was pre-nerf. Now the railgun is only good against hive guards, which the AMR can deal with much faster and with more ammo to spare. I'd rather the railgun was made a primary or they just completely reverse the nerf so that the railgun is an option again.
It's pretty good against devastators. But yes
Personally, I prefer the AMR or even the medium armor penetrating diligence, which can both kill a devastator in one headshot. The latter weapon is even a primary.
Railgun does it in a body shot. Not sure if it needs a charge, but I usually give it a 3 second unsafe charge anyway, because I am not good.
That's fair, as much as I love headshotting devastators, the railgun seems like it can deal with them a little more consistently, which is something at least.
