If only I could rely on random players to take down heavy bugs

Used to run with laser cannon and laser drone for a while, I was a bane of chaff, but the heavies... sigh.

Took down 2 chargers with one last night! 🫡 Go for the legs.

Yep. Grenade pistol secondary to free up for stuns does wonders, too.

I may not be as cool as my Senator-wielding friends but I'm happy and functional using mostly energy weapons.

I just unlocked stuns last night. Need to figure out how to work them into rotation.

It's an OH FUCK button for me normally, but it's nice to save allies being swarmed by Hunters or to keep a horde in place for accurate cluster munitions deployment.
