I have to admit I was surprised just how good it feels to fire Strun (Prime), dunno whether it’s due to sound or just the ridiculous amount of pellets flying out but it really feels like a proper video game shotgun. I’d maybe even put it above corinth!
I also want to like the opticor so much but it lacks a bit of that “laser ooompfh”, can’t believe mass effect is still the best game when it comes to laser weapon effects ^^
For me, it has to be a combination of both the way the weapon feels and the way it performs.
For example, Opticor looks, sounds, and feels great, but the damage has been powercrept by new weapons, and it feels really bad when something survives it. Everything should die to it in one shot.
Currently, the weapon that fits all of these the most is Latron Prime. After getting Incarnon Genesis, it’s power is so high that if I take the time to aim for the enemy’s weakspot, it usually dies in one shot. If not, thanks to Double Tap, you get the satisfaction of seeing your damage steadily increase until the target is well dead and done.
I’m hoping the new augment for Battacor will push it back to my #1 weapon.
