Corvax is ridiculously OP and I am surprised nobody complains.
The perk is super easy to win, just continuous firing at 3x.
At least make the perk dependent on hitting something. Right now, you can aim anywhere and get your +30% bonus active all the time. You just need big enough ammo packs. This is crazy.
i believe they made it so you can only hold the fire button down for a few seconds before it auto fires. they did this in the hopes to counter some of the problems this weapon caused but idk if it did any good.
If you get used to the right pace of clicking you always have the 3x. You do not need to hit enemy, just clicking at the right pace. This is not good.
because it actually takes skill? duh?
Corax is just Varun with explosive bits and a bit of powercrept damage scale, it still require the same amount of skill as Varun does.
besides, Corax already received a nerf after the Forced Measure season concluded, It’s pretty balanced as it currently is.
guh??? It’s not
is this weapon still cancer to play against, after all this time?
i dont understand how anyone still hasnt left the game for good, everything about crossout is declining so hard and its not slowing down
Weird, I almost never see them anymore, but they were everywhere when they first came out.
I wonder if the nerf scared people off, of if people just moved on to newer weapons because they got bored?
Are they more popular on PC? Or in other regions on console?
Because the explosive bolt nerf was too much for most people
Aka “Waaah, i can’t hold my 1000 compound damage per shot indefinetely! The weapon is trash now! Waaah!”
While not as op as before, it’s still a massive better than a lot of other things pain in the ass. But at least they added and then overbuffed the new relic crossbow so many Corax players started to chase after that dragon instead.
But yeah on the scale of gun this still is in the top tier with many guns of the same rarity struggling to even dream of same performance numbers. After they nerfed the explosive bolt people just ignore using it all together and only use 50% of the gun and still rake up points for free because of how powerful it is
If it’s still so OP, why am I not seeing many people playing it?
Or is it just my region of console players that are ignoring it?
I haven’t played my Corvax build for a while, but last time I tried it, it didn’t seem that powerful (or weak for that matter).
The problem is not the explosive bolt, this is ok, the problem is the 30% damage buff (on top of already good damage) just by continuously firing anywhere at a given speed. I just tested, this does not require a lot of skill, just a mecanical repetition.
uhhh… What lmao
It’s not that OP, you waste ammo, reveal your position by sound, can’t use invis and the buff itself is just compensating its below average starting damage.
The explosive bolt was the problem because of how you could do ~1000 damage per single click with no damage bonuses.
At least the durability should be lower. Even with shotgun it’s difficult to degun.
I could hear the gravastar and extremum mains shitting themselves laughing at this from an Astronomical Unit away. You have zero idea how massive a Corax is.
Let me tell you this: before targem “fixed” the way to calcullate distance/speed related perk and hence nuked all Aggressor siege builds,
(by using stallion / camber wheels and 2 pins tall of structure below the frame to lift the car from moving while still charge the Aggressor’s perk by holding W/S keys)
Varun is one of the few weapons that can shine on said vehicle type. Because even if it was numerically the beefiest crossbow, the sheer size of Varun makes it an easy target to strip. They only got picked up again after Targem nerfed all machine guns and shotguns with the strawman fallacy balancing known as hit-scan removal. That’s how Crispy Varun was. And Corax is only bigger.
You can use your silly hyperboles all you want, but this does not change the situation. Gravastar is very short range, extremum the same. Corax is everything, long and short range. I’ve seen contless players (including mayself) degguned at close range by Corax. And of course you got sniped by it at long range.
Guess what? cloaking modules exist. same with basic map navigation where you circle around his ass with the cover of terrain, because most of the time an average Crossout player doesn’t even bring basic locator or radio.
I’ve sneaked up to ranged player and disarmed them countless times with zero cloak. maybe if you hone your navigation skill, you could’ve done it, too.
Very generic remarks, that could apply to any claim that a specific weapon is OP. Do you imply no weapon can be OP, because “cloaking modules” and “get better at navigation”?
I mean, I have all of those weapons, and I’m definitely more dangerous with those two shotguns than Corvax. It’s a good crossbow, but all crossbows have a lot of downsides. I don’t think I would even argue that it’s the best crossbow.
those that abuse game engines are exceptions.
triton is an exception because it abuses the lack of traction on wheels when the target vehicle is being t-boned, and/or abusing anti-wedge with high mounted bumpers.
Omnidirectional movement parts (especially hovers and walker legs) that gets to ignore friction or momentum of the entire vehicles just by using the physics-breaking computer assistance known as “bind steering to camera” is also OP because you don’t have to invest your skill into building at all: look at the amount of “spider” builds that are literally just 2 ML200 on the front and using structures at the back to prop the gun depression angle, yet strafe just fine as if the structures themselves is also a movement part.
Sometimes, the most generic remark is often the one that got disregarded the most when it actually matters.
