      EAT fits well in every bug loadout for chargers and titans against bots you don't need it as much because tanks, hulks, and factory striders have good options to kill them without taking a dedicated support weapon. I have been running AB, EAT, airstrike, and rail cannon because it covers all your bases really well. For weapons with it I have been running the Blitzer, grenade pistol, and stun grenades it works really well especially with the fire speed buff to the Blitzer.

    I haven't tried the airburst yet, but any time someone else brings it they murder half the team with it. It does look super effective when used correctly here. I'll give it a try.
    This new patch has been great for me. I love most of the buffs, and I'm ok with most of the nerfs. The only problem I have now is deciding which weapons to bring since it isn't as brainless a choice as it has been in the past since most weapons feel pretty good. That's definitely a step in the right direction as far as I'm concerned.

    I tried the airburst RL for the first time just yesterday, in a defense mission (the ones with the doors to protect) against bugs. I have to say, i was very pleasantly surprised by its efficiency. Pairing it up with firing mines (a mate had some too, so both front doors were covered with mines in front of them), i absolutely obliterated breaches. When firing up against three opening breaches that i just threw my fire mines onto, i managed to get a x38 kill count in a single rocket. I might give it a try in regular missions too, i assume it's very good at taking out patrols without them being able to call a single breach/bot drop since heavy ennemies can't do that.

    Looks good, I look forward to trying it, thanks. As far as the patch goes, I’m mostly fine with the weapon changes, but a little unhappy about the change to solo spawn rates. Solo was already way harder than group play - it did not need to be made even more difficult, imo.

    Good stuff. I have another build:
    ABRL, Orbital Airburst/Gas Strike - these 2 stratagems + Incendiary Breaker/Plasma Shotgun are your horde clear.
    500kg, Orbital Precision - these 2 are your tank busters. For chargers combine with stun grenades. Though I can see replacing OPS with Autocannon Sentry can be pretty dang good. And you can protect your sentry from chargers with stun grenades.
    If you get a pouncer planet, ooooh boy, you are in for a good time!

    because airburst quickly kills a chunk of the infantry it is great for getting rid of the biggest threat in any patrol, the ones that can call a bug breach or bot drop, especially on bots, with bugs it might leave brood commanders and hive guards alive but starting an ambush with it against bots is an excellent way to avoid them calling backup

    Airburst feels gimmicky and requires a long reload. Just bring Eagle Cluster if you want horde clear.
    Best trash clear against bugs is Stalwart at 1150rpm with support pack and then primary of your choice that features medium pen. Rail strike for harassing chargers, and team mates for titans.
    Easy and effective build on d9, good on every planet. With bugs on d9 you only want one trash clear build, everyone else brings AT.

      @@Sacro_the_Councilman crossbow is my only complaint, already it was a meme weapon, not even comparable with its competition within the explosive weapons category.
      To put the ammo nerf in perspective, imagine if the change brought it from 8 up to 12. That’s a 50% increase; well they did the opposite and then also reduced stagger and explosion radius.
      Without large mag, stagger and explosive radius, what does this thing do? What’s the intended role? It struggles to take down medium targets, can’t kill Fabricators… only thing it can do is kill small enemies and then you may as well use a weapon that’s actually good at that

    The Breaker Incendiary is still bugged in the game. The damage over time from the fire is only calculated for the host of the game such as any other passive fire damage. So it is a great gun, but only if you host the game, otherwise don't play with fire at the moment until there is a hotfix. (the enemies are shown as burning, but get no damage from the effect if you arn't the host)
