Hey I was wondering which stratagem you tried out on a whim but ended up really liking? I’ve been switching it up especially since I read that EAT spam can mess up missions, as that was one of my go-tos.
For me it has to be the gatling barrage. It peppers a concentrated area and can hurt all enemies from what I’ve seen. I love using it for Breach suppression and yesterday I didn’t see anyone shoot any rockets, so I swear it knocked down a dropshop on an elimination mission.
Its use case is definitely limited, but when that case is present those repeated explosions feel nice to see.
is it broken in the latest patch? I used to run it to great success but last time I tried it didn’t do anything at all.
Supposedly there is a bug that prevents fire / gas doing damage correctly (if at all) if you are not the host. Try it in singleplayer to see if it still doesn’t work
I was using it earlier and it seemed to be just fine. Probably worth mentioning that on higher difficulties it’s effectiveness drops off, with baddies seeming to take more to put down, and bug holes especially seeming to last longer, to the point that they can outlast the cloud. I haven’t done any real experimentation though.
