About The Pull Request

Alternative to #16507.

Reduces the sunder on the tx54 airburst from 3 per pellet to 1.5 (21 total to 10.5). This reduces the sunder per second from 17.5 (higher than scout rifle's 12.5) to 8.75 (higher than flechette's 8.5).

Why It's Good For The Game

These guns can crit a queen in 6 shots, and even hitting a queen twice is enough to force them to disengage or risk being mowed down by the marines.

Free weapons should not be invalidating all large castes.

Changelog

🆑
balance: GL54 and AR55 Airburst sunder reduced from 3 per pellet to 1.5.

Well, I think if a queen is staying still or a predictable path this is reasonable, this gun is one of few guns to have limited round start ammo

I mean the scout rifle also has limited ammo and has even lower sunder than the tx54 (prenerf) so I think a sunder reduction cant really be argued against on those grounds

off screen giga sunder and damage with iff on a vendor weapon is balanced, trust

A better alternative to the first proposed PR

This still would leave in the insanely high damage for what it is, sunder and lower damage would make more sense honestly, or slower grenade projectiles
