Augers and omnis(Latest patch)

To be honest I only use 6 of them on average and they all have power penalty reduction and my golden eagle has power bonus increase but it’s still slow as hell as soon as I hit a slight incline it slows from 100 down to 60 and it’s cancerous

Keep it? Nerfs and buffs happen.

What platform are you on? I haven’t had this experience with any of my omniwheel or auger builds on PS4, but I also don’t tend to build right up to the mass limit.
I wonder if there’s a bug on some platforms? Or if this is just related to how mass impacts speed, and a parameter is off?

i broke down and bought augers since they seem to perform better than omnis now

I have been playing a fortune Omni build without issue.

It’s really fast to be honest

I’m curious what the difference is between those experiencing problems and those who aren’t?

You’re on XBOX, right? Maybe it’s a PC glitch?

I have noticed that my controller rumbles like something is dragging, and I’m not a fan of that. And the reversed brake lights is annoying.

The omniwheel build I’ve been playing is a deadman/executioner build, and feels really peppy. I thought I would miss the diagonal boost more, but the smoothness makes aiming so much better, plus I’m not ramming into my teammates due to sudden acceleration.
Been playing a couple auger builds, from small to massive. Both seem fine, although the big one is just as slow as it used to be.

I’ve been using Augers for as long as I can remember. I think they’re one of the 1st nicer “movement parts” I went after. They’re a lot of fun on a sideways build. Check out the perk. Imagine if you had an enormous Harvester that didn’t take any energy & doubles as wheels. :joy:

You can also build “tilting” rigs with the Augers in front tilted into the air. Put Omnis on the back & use the Augers as enormous melee weapons.

I’m not saying they’re OP. They’re just lots of fun to toy around with.

This reminds me… I need to try out my tilting Gravastar Auger monster since the update & see how it works.

You can also make them in real life. That is fun!

Is the omni weak now? Weaker than hover for sure, but what about comparing it to wheels and tracks? So I don’t think there is anything wrong with what the developers have done, they just need to provide brakes for the Omni

I agree with a tiny addendum.
I edited your post to say what I’m thinking.

Before they opened the test server twice, I urged them to change it, but now I’m too embarrassed to say it, I can only wait

Developers must not be like the last time, in addition to the strongest one all buff, just waiting for the warhead changes
