Those bastards killed me so many times yesterday.

They sneak up when I'm unloading amy MG into a bug breach, and it's always 3 or 4 simultaneously attacking in sync so they one shot me.

Yeah they're sneaky little bastards. I usually run the Guard Dog Rover against bugs, just so I know when I'm getting flanked by these fuckers.

They're the worst when I'm on Autocannon duty. I ADS in 1st person, usually kneeling if I can, and then SURPRISE BUT DONT SHOOT

Right up there with the Charger Tag-Team, you dodge one and start lining up your Quasar shot then WHAM! Another Charger or two blast you into a nearby wall

Does Autocannon have splash damage if you fire at something too close? Cause that happens with me using a Scorcher all the time.

I have enough self kills to confirm Autocannon has explosive damage. It's always fun to gamble whether a close up shot will result in an immediate death or one from an impact.

Yep, way worse than Scorcher, too.

Oh yeah for sure

I hate them with a passion, they are worse than any elite. Same as the fucking devastators when fighting bots. Give me hulks all day but none of that shit
