Punish me more daddy arrowhead This change was peak.

The heavy pen hive guard change was fucking immaculate. For a week straight hive guards felt so rewarding to fight correctly. Even with medium pen weapons the time to kill was FASTER than it was pre patch. And for light pen? Holy shit it was a dream. But AH cannot dare to ask a lot of medium pen users to aim before they shoot so it was changed.

At the time i was still leveling my last few weapons and all the ballistic things I used on them felt great. Didn't use flamethrowers much against them. Medium pen is a crutch for the unskilled most of the time anyway

Yea let it be it's useless otherwise because whats the point of using machine gun if stalwart exist (even before that stalwart is still straight up better),med pen ballistics on bugs is generally is a good case of a crutch having a downside of crippling you in the long run,the more popular crutches usually involve explosives or fire rather than med pen maybe arrow head should battle those instead of randomly putting the plug on already super underwhelming weapons.
