The caster nerf was not needed

I think the plasma caster full charge nerf was not needed the caster should be a punishment for standing still and also when FT camps in buildings you can’t one shot one of them and rush in and finish the rest off it’s supposed to be a punish weapon now people can just tank a caster shot and you just get fucking rekt with the snipers

I said this on another post, but a simple solution would be to make down range perk take 4 or 5, instead of 3 perk slots, and let it boost plasma caster damage back to one shot levels, but only on direct hits ofc.
As it stands right now, that perk doesnt do much, compared to how usefull fearless is to melee. It would breath some life into the perk, and With taking so many perk slots, discourage berzerkers from taking it and breaking the balance. OR if they do take it, they have to gimp themselves on other staple perks

Otherwise, As much as I agree with you that it should be a punish weapon, I am glad that they made this change, as now as pred you have to actually hunt, rather than just punishing the fireteam no matter where they are.

Id be fine with that but it needs changed back

I agree, as I said, the downrange perk is nothing more than a placebo right now, its ass, So having it bridge the gap, would maintain balance while still allowing ranged predators to be more effective. And as I said, zerkers would be forced to make a choice between taking it, or taking other important perks, mostly the ones that make them tankier or have more medkits.

Its pretty cut and dry the perk being there for that reason
