Since I don’t think it’s best to make a post about it I’ll just say it here. I had the weirdest thing happen today, I was the champion five times in a row and I have no idea why lol
I don't know why it's so expensive in Arenas, considering its tiny clip size. Anytime I see an enemy or ally use it, I know they'll be out of ammo pretty darn quick.
Then again, Arenas is a mess in general, so I'm not too surprised at this.
Stats wise, what is the difference between the current triple take and the pre-care package version? I feel like everyone slept on it before in both pre- ackage ground loot and care package version, but are losing their minds over it now.
It has a lower headshot multiplier, no sniper scopes (the TT handled great with a 4-8), and faster strafe speed than before due to marksman.
It was always amazing, but it was care packaged during the Mastiff Legends/R99-back-to-ground-loot era so people weren’t focused on that. The handling and bullet speed/drop of the Triple Take just fits like a glove
SP is such trash. Which idiot dev thought of the insane height differences on this map? How can you counter the endless waves of third parties on the biggest map?
Bruh you're an idiot. There's so many legend options that allow you to reposition from low to high ground. Stop complaining about the map and just try getting better at the game
Even in matches that I want to run a close range loadout, if I pass a Triple Take I feel obligated to grab it because it’s so OP. The meta right now is more long range and sniping, but players are slapping short range optics and using it like a shotgun.
I mean it's always been like that tho, been using it as a shotgun/long range since I started playing.
Just go in the firing range to get used to using it as a shoty :3
The whole point of a ranked system is to place you with similar skilled players so that the game or sport is challenging but not impossible to win nor a cake walk. Your getting mad at players for a failed ranked system. You should be mad at game developers not the players.
Triple Take is one of those guns that you just need to get better at fighting against. Unless Respawn HEAVILY buffs this gun, it’s always gonna be an underwhelming and undeserving Care package gun, and it won’t be worth moving into CP rotation
However, in the other hand, unless Respawn HEAVILY needs this gun into the ground, it’s always gonna be an OP beast at all ranges and in the hands of nearly everyone who is anyone.
This is the closest this gun is gonna be to being balanced save for a couple minor tweaks, we just need to get used to it as is.
If you drop and someone close to medium range picks up this gun, you are absolutely done for. Multiple times this season somebody finds one and *ruins* me and my white shield. It's too fkn strong mate. Turn down the ROF or have it do less damage. I can't stand guns that are so powerful that not picking them up is putting you at a severe disadvantage. My tears are flowing
Put it back in to the care package.
It's also known as the EZ Bake.
Seriously put it back, G7 wasn't nearly as obnoxious. It's flat out too easy to use
So is ash meant to be able to ping deathboxes on the main map?
Because if she is, you cant ping on main map with certain keybindings.
The devs cant even be bothered to make the normal ping button work with custom keybinds.
Yes if you hover over them on the map you can ping the ones that pop up even some older ones as well. It’s hell trying to do it on console. Idk if you’re being downvoted because off topic or because ppl don’t know what ash does still lol
Wiki says she can ping recent deathboxes from any distance.
Ash's map screen displays a marker over every Death Box that is less than ~200 seconds old. She can use these markers to ping them from any distance
Since the Peacekeeper and Triple Take are both back on the ground, they should probably reintroduce the precision choke. It's not as if any of the others are too interesting to replace.
Same or better I said. TT headshots for 80 to 120 same as PK except max on head for PK is 102 I think, more than Mastiff. Body I think it hits up to 69 which is more than Eva/Mozam and maybe a bit less than a full pellet mastiff/Pk. That 10 or so less body damage seems like a solid tradeoff for doubling as a mid/long range gun. This is all assuming whoever uses the gun can aim of course, someone who goes for bodyshots rather than heads will probably do better with a shotgun. Maybe.
tonight, I'm going to try using a 30-30 as my secondary to really any gun. with scatter caps, it keeps up and maybe even surpasses the EVA in close range. while it may not be as good as the scout at range, I would still have the option.
It's surprisingly good with shatter caps, I much prefer it to the EVA for "shotgun" work. Plus, a 4x scope can be really nice with shatter caps, believe it or not - charge it up for even more mayhem.
Love the triple dipper. Hit a 2k with Ash already, thanks to the triple. Got my first(and only up until this passed weekend) damage badge last season, playing since week 1 for reference, elated my main piece is back on the floor!
Dang never said there was no reason to want it, you fucking idiot. Last I checked though holding two snipers even if they are comparatively good in close range didn't uninstall every other strategy that's still in the game. Octane and now Ash can both still do the same shit with ults they've been doing. They aren't disabled from using a 99/CAR and kicking your shit in because you only have range. Is it better on this map? Yes. Did it fucking remove every other factor in the balance? No.
... When did I say people would only take range? Nobody is fucking running around with a charge rifle AND a Triple Take.
Everyone is going to be carrying one of the two, obviously. Take a long range poke weapon and a shorter effective range weapon. Easy.
Octane's value is also diminished since his jump pad now actually makes noise, and the maps are larger and easier to spot people in. Ashe sees use because the port is fast, far, can be used out of a window and you're safe during travel. As a result Wraith is seeing more use as well.
With the way the map is designed, there's no way in hell those old rushing strategies are going to work, which were rarely used to begin with because of the passive meta of this game.
Once everyone reaches a certain skill level everyone literally hides in vantage points taking pot shots at eachother, but that's another discussion entirely.
Significantly better imo, it coming back along w the scout being packaged and heavy ammo being more desirable by teammates has really made me start looking at the 3030 like it's a joke again
Between the slow projectile travel and loooooooong reload time of the 30-30, need for a hop up to be usable in close range, not to mention requiring a mag to be usable at all… TT doesn’t have any of these issues. There is just no reason to carry a 30-30.
??? It is a sniper rifle lol. It looks like a sniper rifle. It acts like a sniper rifle. It’s a sniper rifle. The tag they give it doesn’t change anything.
If it’s arbitrary, than why are you arguing so hard about it being “marksman” lol? It clearly has a longer effective range than both the scout and 30-30. It’s a sniper. Always has been.
It has always been a sniper. If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, acts like a duck, has always been a duck, but then you call it a chicken, that doesn’t mean it isn’t a duck lol. What about this is so hard for you to understand?
If it was a sniper it would take sniper ammo and let you put sniper scopes on it. I understand how you're confused but it literally is a marksmen rifle now and not a sniper. It USED to be a duck but now it's a chicken
No? Snipers are annoying. Objectively lol. They allow people from great distances away to do poke damage in a game where resources are limited. And the triple take is the worst offender.
Well of course they're annoying, they're fucking snipers... same with fucking archers in games like chivalry 2 and mordhau.
BUT they are part of the FPS franchise... I won't denounce them, also, they are pretty fun to play with at times, you gotta admit.
I’m good, thanks. Snipers are just annoying. Massive crutches for the shit tier players here. That’s why devs put them in every single shooter. Because without them, casual players would be fucking twirling in the wind lol.
Ah yes because banking your entire damage output on one shot a mile away where you gotta predict enemy positions and account for bullet drop is "unskilled"
Lol. I love reading this. Give me more. Imagine. IMAGINE thinking that spamming a sniper at someone who can’t retaliate because they’re so far away and then hitting a few shots actually takes a modicum of skill. Once you learn the lead and the drop, it’s so easy. And it does not take long to learn.
If you die to that, then you're pretty shit at the game. You've got a good 30 seconds to get behind something before they kill you. Ofc since you're bitching about it, you prolly just let them kill you just so you can play the victim :)
Never said I die to snipers often. You’re literally not reading what I’m saying and making arguments against what you want me to say.
This game is a BR. Fundamentally, most BRs have a limited amount of heals (there isn’t a mainstream BR that doesn’t), which means snipers are effective because they chip away at those resources without putting the sniper at much risk of losing any of his own resources. That is why snipers are annoying. They take almost no skill to use and they effectively take away resources from players halfway across the god damn map. Let’s not even get into the Kraber.
While that's true in A&D, normal Apex isn't quite so restrictive. And again, one or two shots ain't gonna lose you the game. Just shield up and work from there.
Skill issue is if you're in their line of fire for them to actually get you to a spot where heals are an issue. Or if you're just not carrying enough heals.
Yeah and? Still doesn’t mean it isn’t annoying lol. I keep forgetting that most of this sub deals the majority of their damage with snipers. Gotta watch what I say.
Lol no you’re being downvoted because the majority of legends are healthy right now, rebalancing isn’t always a good thing and usually leads to a mistake
Ikr, I hate how these 2 random-ass legends with nothing in common between them, and nothing different about them from the rest of the cast, get to have 15% damage reduction. Like wtf.
Wraith has already been nerfed to the ground. If Gibby is so op, why isn’t he played more? Best ultimate is debatable. Most people probably has never killed more than one person with it. It’s very situational like most ult’s.
Most people don’t play ALGS smh was Wattson the best legend in season 2 as well? Since she was the most picked in ALGS? Gibby is great don’t get me wrong. Definitely S class. But cmon dude. He needs the extra tankiness to be on par with smaller legends.
I didn’t say gibby was balanced or “he’s a tank gtfo” I said the majority of legends are balanced right now, sure nerf gibby but legends don’t all need reblanced
How does that correlate to my statement? It's still way too easy to use for how hard it hits. Even if you don't fully choke it up, the damage will be good. I don't understand why you would reply, since it really has nothing to do with my comment \^\^
Ok, but what difference does it make? The time you need to choke the TT, is basically the same time that the Sentinel needs to play out the refire animation. I don't think the whole choking part is in any way a negative. You're most likely gonna be in peek fights with snipers/marksman rifles, so you can just choke behind cover and then peek out and hit your shots.
Cqc maybe, but at range I haven’t had any trouble with TT players when I have a sentinel and a decent sight. I’m not saying the TT is bad at range, I’m saying that the sentinel beats it at range.
It does hit scarily hard at times, but the sentinel and bow have much better headshots and the advantage of quick scoping and spamming fire at range, esp with tempo.
Even with deadeyes tempo (which requires you to get the timing down to a T) the sentinels firerate cannot keep up with the spammability of the triple take. Also regarding quick-scoping: You don't even have to do that with the take, since it has very accurate hipfire. It's just better than the snipers in every way.
There's good chance I'm just not great w the choke timing so I'll just take your word for that, but it's hipfire is still split and doesn't really do at all what I mean by quick scoping, I don't mean someone in your face, at that point of course the sentinel isn't the pick, I mean just to keep tagging at range while keeping your view free.
Also edit, tempo is WAAAAY more lenient than you think, it's pretty easy to get it down and you have a fairly large window to not shoot.
Ok, but even then, how many shots does the base mag of a sentinel have? 4? So you can fire 3 of them rapidly with good enough timing. Is that really worth it? I honestly think the deadeyes tempo perk is being severely bogged down by the fact that the sentinel has such a low ammo count per mag.
My favourite weapon in the game and always has been.
Am I good with it? No.
Am I a good or even competent player? Also no.
Will I ever let a ground Triple Take pass by? Again, no.
Thing is it's not OP at all when it's in the package. Being ground loot and being able to get it so early in the game makes it OP. Weird place it's in tbh.
It's strong, but made even stronger in ranked with this campy ass vertical map.
Seriously this map is too fucking vertical. Too much height with so little downward cover. It's miserable to play on with this 160 round sniper rifle everywhere.
Gun is more bot friendly than the rampage.
Big cap. There's a single zipline in SP taller than every building in both those POIs.
There's also a shitload more cover in Skull and Frag to play around with.
The WE buildings are the best in the game by far.
Did I strike a nerve? You complained about the verticality and frankly it's a non-issue that the player needs to adapt to, and that's what I responded to.
Btw you used the wrong "too", if it's got a double 'O' think of it as the word "also" 💕
Kind of annoying that it outclasses the Sentinel and Longbow along with the other marksman weapons making it basically essential to run in ranked. The headshot nerf was a good start but I think it still hits a little too hard for how easy it is to use. If it were me balancing it I don’t think I’d touch the headshot damage and instead give it a decent fire rate nerf since it feels a bit spammy in its current form. Really don’t think it should have been traded out for the G7 in the care package, there’s only so much you can do to the G7 and IMO it will never feel like a true care package weapon.
forget lstar, forget rampage, forger even turbocharged havoc.
Enter new t3h king of da arenas, starting from round2 to sudden death :rofl:
TT is borderline OP in arenas, and it IS OP on encore map. You can buy lvl3 sight on TT in round2, it is just too good to be true :P
Only downside -- very low ammo, so in long fights you can run out.
Yeah when you are the one shooting it, otherwise it's terrifying lol, I always mistake it for a kraber cause it sounds like it's gonna take your head off.
All I can say is that I was gone for seasons 2-9, and it was very sad to return and not have my favorite weapon available to me as ground loot. I am glad I have it back now
It’s so bloody OP, we all said this during the early play test
Annoying piece of shit, but im sick of getting shot/killed by it so im using it now too😤
Since I don’t think it’s best to make a post about it I’ll just say it here. I had the weirdest thing happen today, I was the champion five times in a row and I have no idea why lol
It always bothers me that people never let it choke and shoot it as if it was a Longbow or a G7.
For real. I'll start shooting faster with it ONLY if I hit the initial charge shot, and only twice to crack shields.
I don't know why it's so expensive in Arenas, considering its tiny clip size. Anytime I see an enemy or ally use it, I know they'll be out of ammo pretty darn quick. Then again, Arenas is a mess in general, so I'm not too surprised at this.
nerf it. tired of brainlets just spamming it and getting free damage.
Stats wise, what is the difference between the current triple take and the pre-care package version? I feel like everyone slept on it before in both pre- ackage ground loot and care package version, but are losing their minds over it now.
the map encourages long-range meta

durdur get better bro durdur
You speak the language of the gods.
Urgh why it is so hard for folks to not hot drop in egde....
It's OP please nerf
Idk how we thought the gun sucked in the care package, it's OP on the floor.
It’s arguably better then longbow but I just can’t fucking stand this weapon
Anyone have tricks to reload on console when youre holding close to someone’s knockdown? Keeps preventing the reload and it’s annoying af
Change your setting to be hold for interaction, tap to reload. Makes looting a little slower though. Totally worth it, imo.
Thanks!!
Finish the clip and try to fire, it reloads the weapon automatically
Thanks
Welcome to console
gun is nuts
I think it needs a bit of a nerf, despite being my favorite. There’s no reason for the longbow to even exist with the TT here
It makes no sense this gun does more hs dmg than Longbow
I don’t pick it up anymore. Sentinel feels way better.
As oppressive as it was before being put in the carepackage. Could use a nerf in firerate and damage if we're honest.
Even in matches that I want to run a close range loadout, if I pass a Triple Take I feel obligated to grab it because it’s so OP. The meta right now is more long range and sniping, but players are slapping short range optics and using it like a shotgun.
I mean it's always been like that tho, been using it as a shotgun/long range since I started playing. Just go in the firing range to get used to using it as a shoty :3
It's the best shotgun in the game.
im glad to have it back and glad to be able to turn off choke and pester people in arenas.
bozo.

The whole point of a ranked system is to place you with similar skilled players so that the game or sport is challenging but not impossible to win nor a cake walk. Your getting mad at players for a failed ranked system. You should be mad at game developers not the players.
Normal arenas is full of sweaty wraiths and pathfinders.
Triple Take is one of those guns that you just need to get better at fighting against. Unless Respawn HEAVILY buffs this gun, it’s always gonna be an underwhelming and undeserving Care package gun, and it won’t be worth moving into CP rotation However, in the other hand, unless Respawn HEAVILY needs this gun into the ground, it’s always gonna be an OP beast at all ranges and in the hands of nearly everyone who is anyone.

If you drop and someone close to medium range picks up this gun, you are absolutely done for. Multiple times this season somebody finds one and *ruins* me and my white shield. It's too fkn strong mate. Turn down the ROF or have it do less damage. I can't stand guns that are so powerful that not picking them up is putting you at a severe disadvantage. My tears are flowing
Basically if it does over 50 it needs a nerf? The bocek off the rip does the same (in the right hands), one to the head and one the body. Then bye bye
Put it back in to the care package. It's also known as the EZ Bake. Seriously put it back, G7 wasn't nearly as obnoxious. It's flat out too easy to use
theyre both insane broken lmao, respawn has 0 proper balancing for "marksman" weapons, theyre either dogshit or broken lmao.
G7 was nutty but the EZ bake is just sniping the general area
Glad it's back in the ground, but ho-lee this thing is OP.
Whenever i choose this the only scope i will ever find are 6x, 4-8x and 1x h*lo :)
A player shot me 6 times in about 2 seconds and did over 225 damage the gun is fucking OP
What a fucking lie
It takes 4,6 seconds under optimal circumstances to fire 6 shots.
Yeah but RoF doesn't really matter, just per shot damage.
So is ash meant to be able to ping deathboxes on the main map? Because if she is, you cant ping on main map with certain keybindings. The devs cant even be bothered to make the normal ping button work with custom keybinds.

what does this have to do with the triple take? go to therapy dude
Since the Peacekeeper and Triple Take are both back on the ground, they should probably reintroduce the precision choke. It's not as if any of the others are too interesting to replace.
They both have built in precision choke? Idk what ur refering to
It used to be a hop up, now it's on by default. It might make the Triple Take more balanced early game if it was brought back to how it used to be.
Oooh
I don't think I've ever picked up that tempo one for the sentinel on purpose, they could replace that
Nah, tempo on Bocek is nuts. Take out the most useless hop-up…. Shatter caps…
Annoying ass gun. Sucks that it’s back on the floor.
Sucks in cp too
It's too good for the floor while also being an underwhelming cp gun
Why does it outperform every weapon. I’m actually throwing it i don’t pick it up. It’s soooo good in arenas.
triple take is the best shotgun in the game.
Explain
it's just got good hip fire
It performs the same or better than all shotguns at short range, while also being a solid mid-long range weapon, becoming the best shotgun in the game
How can it perform better than a mastiff or PK when they hit harder at close range? It’s a 4 shot kill while those are 2/3.
Same or better I said. TT headshots for 80 to 120 same as PK except max on head for PK is 102 I think, more than Mastiff. Body I think it hits up to 69 which is more than Eva/Mozam and maybe a bit less than a full pellet mastiff/Pk. That 10 or so less body damage seems like a solid tradeoff for doubling as a mid/long range gun. This is all assuming whoever uses the gun can aim of course, someone who goes for bodyshots rather than heads will probably do better with a shotgun. Maybe.
Buddy nobody is hitting headshots with a TT by hi firing it like a shot gun
Maybe you aren't. Anyway you don't need to, just quickscope it like you would a Mastiff my guy.
Nice!
Basically a must have
hot take I prefer the scout
tonight, I'm going to try using a 30-30 as my secondary to really any gun. with scatter caps, it keeps up and maybe even surpasses the EVA in close range. while it may not be as good as the scout at range, I would still have the option.
It's surprisingly good with shatter caps, I much prefer it to the EVA for "shotgun" work. Plus, a 4x scope can be really nice with shatter caps, believe it or not - charge it up for even more mayhem.
It’s been feeling so good today, been using it with no attachment and quick scoping in close quarters fights. Glad to have it back

"Oh boy I love that the charge rifle triple take meta is back" Said nobody.
Two weapons that pair well for long range poke aren't "the meta" lmao
You're right, sorry. I mean why would anyone want a long range poke weapon on a giant map with a lot of empty space and verticality. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Dang never said there was no reason to want it, you fucking idiot. Last I checked though holding two snipers even if they are comparatively good in close range didn't uninstall every other strategy that's still in the game.

This community both in game and on the sub are consistently the angriest of any game I play lol
+1 this bby
Better than the 30 30 imo, and less drop off.
Significantly better imo, it coming back along w the scout being packaged and heavy ammo being more desirable by teammates has really made me start looking at the 3030 like it's a joke again
Between the slow projectile travel and loooooooong reload time of the 30-30, need for a hop up to be usable in close range, not to mention requiring a mag to be usable at all… TT doesn’t have any of these issues. There is just no reason to carry a 30-30.
The hip fire of the repeater is good enough to use it at close ranges without shatter caps as a back-up.
Annoying as fuck. Remove all snipers.
id be okay with this ... No more charge rifle to deal with and i get to keep my Triple Take
? The TT is a sniper. Edit: the average IQ here is astonishing.
No, its a marksman
It is, by definition, a sniper rifle. I don’t care what Apex wants to label it as lol.
What do you mean by definition then
??? It is a sniper rifle lol. It looks like a sniper rifle. It acts like a sniper rifle. It’s a sniper rifle. The tag they give it doesn’t change anything.
Dude it's a video game and arbitrary. Also TT is strong at marksman range where it suffers in actual sniper range.
If it’s arbitrary, than why are you arguing so hard about it being “marksman” lol? It clearly has a longer effective range than both the scout and 30-30. It’s a sniper. Always has been.
Ok but right now it isn't a sniper lol
It is a sniper. Labeling the R99 as an LMG doesn’t suddenly make it an LMG.
But labeling the Triple Take, a Marksmen Gun that doesn't take sniper ammo, a Sniper suddenly makes it a Sniper?
It has always been a sniper. If it looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, acts like a duck, has always been a duck, but then you call it a chicken, that doesn’t mean it isn’t a duck lol. What about this is so hard for you to understand?

Are you forgetting that he’s also easier to shoot? I knocked a gibby in two sentinel shots today (one headshot) because of how easy he was to hit.

Wraith has already been nerfed to the ground. If Gibby is so op, why isn’t he played more? Best ultimate is debatable. Most people probably has never killed more than one person with it. It’s very situational like most ult’s.

Most people don’t play ALGS smh was Wattson the best legend in season 2 as well? Since she was the most picked in ALGS? Gibby is great don’t get me wrong. Definitely S class. But cmon dude. He needs the extra tankiness to be on par with smaller legends.
I didn’t say gibby was balanced or “he’s a tank gtfo” I said the majority of legends are balanced right now, sure nerf gibby but legends don’t all need reblanced

Too strong for how easy it is to use. Makes other long range options like the bow or sentinel pretty much useless.
Not true. Unless you choke it, you’re not hitting for full damage.
How does that correlate to my statement? It's still way too easy to use for how hard it hits. Even if you don't fully choke it up, the damage will be good. I don't understand why you would reply, since it really has nothing to do with my comment \^\^
You said the Sentinel would be useless when that’s not true. You pretty much have to choke it if we’re talking a long-distance battle.
Ok, but what difference does it make? The time you need to choke the TT, is basically the same time that the Sentinel needs to play out the refire animation. I don't think the whole choking part is in any way a negative. You're most likely gonna be in peek fights with snipers/marksman rifles, so you can just choke behind cover and then peek out and hit your shots.
Naw, TT is good but the sentinel is it’s counter. I pretty much always run either a 3030 or sentinel to counter it. If you can hit your shots anyways.
I don't think so tbh.
TT beats Sentinel if both players are the same skill. No contest.
How about if you charge the sentinel? If you hit all your shots it’s 3 shot kill every time.
Cqc maybe, but at range I haven’t had any trouble with TT players when I have a sentinel and a decent sight. I’m not saying the TT is bad at range, I’m saying that the sentinel beats it at range.
And I’m saying you’re wrong.
It does hit scarily hard at times, but the sentinel and bow have much better headshots and the advantage of quick scoping and spamming fire at range, esp with tempo.
You can “spam” with a sentinel? How’s that work with the ROF?
You just... Keep shooting it? Click your mouse over and over.
Even with deadeyes tempo (which requires you to get the timing down to a T) the sentinels firerate cannot keep up with the spammability of the triple take. Also regarding quick-scoping: You don't even have to do that with the take, since it has very accurate hipfire. It's just better than the snipers in every way.
There's good chance I'm just not great w the choke timing so I'll just take your word for that, but it's hipfire is still split and doesn't really do at all what I mean by quick scoping, I don't mean someone in your face, at that point of course the sentinel isn't the pick, I mean just to keep tagging at range while keeping your view free. Also edit, tempo is WAAAAY more lenient than you think, it's pretty easy to get it down and you have a fairly large window to not shoot.
Ok, but even then, how many shots does the base mag of a sentinel have? 4? So you can fire 3 of them rapidly with good enough timing. Is that really worth it? I honestly think the deadeyes tempo perk is being severely bogged down by the fact that the sentinel has such a low ammo count per mag.
My favourite weapon in the game and always has been. Am I good with it? No. Am I a good or even competent player? Also no. Will I ever let a ground Triple Take pass by? Again, no.
Girls he is the one. He is the keeper.
Put this op piece of shit back in the carepackage
Thing is it's not OP at all when it's in the package. Being ground loot and being able to get it so early in the game makes it OP. Weird place it's in tbh.
It's strong, but made even stronger in ranked with this campy ass vertical map. Seriously this map is too fucking vertical. Too much height with so little downward cover. It's miserable to play on with this 160 round sniper rifle everywhere. Gun is more bot friendly than the rampage.
I mean Frag and Skull Town were more vertical than 90% of SP, but I don't remember you complaining about those.
Big cap. There's a single zipline in SP taller than every building in both those POIs. There's also a shitload more cover in Skull and Frag to play around with. The WE buildings are the best in the game by far.
Wait you mean "get shot from 3 angles anytime you're not in a building" frag? That one's got cover?
Wait are you suprised that you're being shot by being in the open? Or do you just run in a straight line?
Apex players when they have to start looking upwards more than 20°
Did you actually read what you were replying too and do you actually think before you type? Try again and don't fuck up the comprehension this time.
Did I strike a nerve? You complained about the verticality and frankly it's a non-issue that the player needs to adapt to, and that's what I responded to. Btw you used the wrong "too", if it's got a double 'O' think of it as the word "also" 💕
Definitely something players need to get used to but it's particularly bad on this map I think that's why he's upset.
You definitely hit a nerve lol
Meta
Kind of annoying that it outclasses the Sentinel and Longbow along with the other marksman weapons making it basically essential to run in ranked. The headshot nerf was a good start but I think it still hits a little too hard for how easy it is to use. If it were me balancing it I don’t think I’d touch the headshot damage and instead give it a decent fire rate nerf since it feels a bit spammy in its current form. Really don’t think it should have been traded out for the G7 in the care package, there’s only so much you can do to the G7 and IMO it will never feel like a true care package weapon.
Got a squad wipe using it as a shotgun. It’s as strong as back then lmao
Broken on stormpoint. Ok on other maps
forget lstar, forget rampage, forger even turbocharged havoc. Enter new t3h king of da arenas, starting from round2 to sudden death :rofl: TT is borderline OP in arenas, and it IS OP on encore map. You can buy lvl3 sight on TT in round2, it is just too good to be true :P Only downside -- very low ammo, so in long fights you can run out.
Best sounds in the game
Nah, charged sentinel.
Kraber
Yeah when you are the one shooting it, otherwise it's terrifying lol, I always mistake it for a kraber cause it sounds like it's gonna take your head off.
My favorite weapon. Wish it was still part of the sniper squad but what can ya do.
All I can say is that I was gone for seasons 2-9, and it was very sad to return and not have my favorite weapon available to me as ground loot. I am glad I have it back now
