Sire's and Claws

Gears 5
#42

I don’t have an issue with challenging enemies, but two shot downs from a Claw from across the map while they have practically no breaks in their firing you can exploit like on Hunters, Snipers and to a lesser degree Hammerburst Drones and zero loss of accuracy is more obnoxious than it is “challenging”.

Oh, and apparently the Mulcher is a COG weapon, so how the Locust managed to get their hands on those, mass produce and maintain them is a mystery to me, especially when they are not commonly or not at all seen in COG arsenal.

TC doesn’t like use having fun our own way. They want to force the sheet base to conform to their idea of fun. Proof? Everything removed from 4 and the entirety of 5

I never said the mulcer was a cog weapon. The scions use mulcers so they must be good at using that weapon as it’s big and bulky. Also the claw has 100 rounds so yeah it can fire for a long time.

Well, weapon handling or not, the way a weapon behaves wouldn’t change when it switches hands between humans and Swarm, yet a Scion handling a Mulcher has significantly less dispersion to deal with than a human player, and a Claw in the hands of an Elite Drone has none of the drawbacks a player has to deal with while firing it. So even if they were good at firing it, they couldn’t just magically change attributes of the weapon as they pleased within a second…

Well it’s a swarm weapon so they probably know how to handle the weapon properly, same thing as those scions with mulcers etc. It’s kinda of like how a Soldier in the military will know how to use a gun where as citizens will not or a lot will not know how to use a weapon properly.

I also noticed that Mulcher is pretty great when used by Scion but pretty useless when I use it. But at least Claw is pretty useful and strong weapon for me.

I agree with toning down the claws, they are just elite drones but more dangerous than most bosses and scions.

There should be an option to break free from the sire’s grasp if you have a grenade imo, by the way why the hell can they grab you as Lizzie inside the silverback? need to fix that.
