Vortex Nerfed Against MAX/Infantry?

Rasui · 2013-05-22, 03:56 PM

The Vortex now takes three (3) fully charged shots to kill an enemy MAX plus a pair of uncharged. Previously it only took two (2) charged shots plus a pair of uncharged shots. Infantry took one (1) fully charged shot plus a pair of uncharged shots to kill prior to patch. Now it takes two fully charged shots to put them down.

I was really looking forward to the ZOE because it was supposed to change those numbers to two (MAX) and one (Infantry) charged shots respectively. Now I find my enthusiasm has been crushed by this undocumented change. Please tell me this is a bug.

Care to explain? Because this change is completely incongruent with the way the other AV weapons currently work.

Fracture 2-3 shotting infantry is totally fine because it's hard to hit. Vortex is too easy to charge up and hit with, so it shouldn't do any damage to infantry.
