Onae Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Currently one of the biggest issues present with corpus is that Crewman's heads are bugged and as far as I know it's being worked on, now that won't fix Cernos entirely but right now Corpus Crewman and tech's are sitting near the top of the difficulty spectrum because they take little to no headshot damage. Cernos needs a buff infact I feel that impact needs a buff overall as shields are fast becoming the stonewall that armor used to be.The crewman are meant to take little to no headshot damage?

WikKidSlap Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 The small head shot damage for Corpus is a bug, up until a couple hot fixes ago they were literally taking no damage to the head at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CY13ERPUNK Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Ok I think you've overlooked the function of this bow completely. Look at it's status chance, The shape of the arrow, The generally quick rate of fire for a bow. It's a knockdown beast. Serration, Split Chamber, Hammershot, Thunderbolt, Impact +, Crit damage+, Heat +, Ice + Bam! Enemies bow down to this bow. wut srsly wat Cernos underperforms MASSIVELY even in comparison to the other bows that underperform against almost anything else ingame built cernos and aklex: specced cernos to focus on dmg vs corpus/shields/robotics, still performs MUCH WORSE than aklex that has been built for puncture dmg to take out armored targets doing t1 voids, cernos can 1-shot corrupted lancers, but takes 2-3 shot to take out corrupted crewmen, WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?!?!?! (aklex is 1-shotting both, while being hitscan and having 12 rounds b4 reload) as far as i can tell impact dmg is srsly underperforming in dmgv2, and needs to do +75% vs shields or something...

CY13ERPUNK Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Update 11 for bows is basically Rock, Paper, Scissors more like this: Paris/Prime: decent/good vs everything, especially armor Dread: still good, but not as good vs armor Cernos: utter garbage vs everything, especially shields AND armor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volume Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Dread / Paris Prime are better :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrashSpider Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I much rather stick to my Dread or Paris, can't stand the cernos. Even at rank 1 I enjoy the orginal two bows, cernos just leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otakuwolf Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 To me, they should make the Cernos more like an impact version of Paris. Paris has 2.3 Impact, 33.8 puncture, 9.0 slash Cernos has 30 impact, 2.0 puncture, 8.0 slash. Wouldn't it make more sense if Cernos has 33.8 impact, 2.3 puncture and 8.0 slash ? To make it more of a fair alternative to Paris ? After all those are the same stats of Paris but with reversed impact and puncture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliginy Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 It makes some bosses easier because the damage goes straight through the shield so you don't have to deplete it all the way to do damage to the boss's health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantasmo Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Cernos needs to deal a lot more basic impact damage. Paris's puncture damage is greata against armored targets. Dread's slash damage is great against flesh targets. However, Impact damage kills the shields (not really) but then does nothing more. So if you want the arrow to deal damage after killiing the shields, you should have the arrow deal a lot more damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePresident777 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 All the bows are below average weapons and the cernos is the worst of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantasmo Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I believe nevertheless the problem with bows is the same as Banshee's problem with Silence: there aren't any stealth missions taht make them useful. There should be missions which demanded a stealth gameplay. As long as there aren't, stealth weapons are going to make little to no sense at all.

That, and remove the silly -25% damage to flesh from impact damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZWarhammer Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 So yeah Paris Prime or Dread there is no reason to use cernos corpus just die from everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T4r1t4 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 a mi parecer la mejor configuración para el cernos con 30 puntos de polaridad es esta: mods : golpe de impacto + rondas criogenicas + trueno + mutacion de flechas para no quedarce corto el problema es con los grinner pesados aun les baja con dos flechas y con los corpus no hay lio por los escudos cuando usas a MAG se los eliminas y listo ... he logrado bajarles de 6500 puntos a los infestados sin lio XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
