The Jackal Is Too Weak

[Dagnome]

When fighting the Jackal the other night (This is also pointing out how OP the hex is) the battle became quite simple.

-At the begginging of the fight i quickly launch two slugs into the jackals front left leg, he goes down.

-My teammates pound on him blah blah blah he gets back up.

-As soon as he stands back up two more slugs into the front left leg he goes down before he has a chance to do anything.

(The Jackal would attempt his knock down attack because the entire battle I literally stoof right in front of him)

-I simply repeated the steps above until the finished him off.

To easy, fix the hex or make the jackal hadrer ;p

Hek was already nerfed on update 7.

In case you didn't know:

STRUN / BOAR / BRONCO / HEK:

Tweaks to Recoil feel and Accuracy, generally sharper Rotation and Translation Springs, added Noise & better spread control when firing while aimed. Added force feedback to all firing sounds.

HEK:

Damage per pellet now 19, was 17 / Total number of pellets now 7, was 8 / Reload time now 2.15,

was 2 / Crit Chance now 2.5%, was 5%

And making the Jackal harder, will be worse for other players.

Just because you have an overpowered Hek, doesn't mean everything should be nerfed/buffed to your tastes.

Jackal is already a hard boss for the level that he is. It's not his fault you have to farm him because you can't farm higher level places.

Moral of the story. Way outgear lowbie content then complain hes too weak.

or may be move into a higher level boss? Instead of killing low level boss with high level gear & skill and then complaining about it being too easy.

YEah try killing it with the base weapons and see if it's still too weak... lol

Remember Jackal is not an endgame bos, he is a starting boss. This his HP and DMG are that of a starting boss. At lvl 2 with lvl 2 weapons you will have a hard time. At lvl 30 with lvl 30 modded weapons, he is a pushover.

I am not rfering to how difficult he is, the main point is the OP hex of course but you need to consider the possibly of people being rushed to end game content if there is no form of difficulty scaling.

[Splosions]

Hek is a lvl 4 weapon, you have to play for many hours before you can even obtain it, platinum or no. So taking on a low lvl boss with an endgame weapon was bound to have the results the OP got.

on alert missions with assasination jackal is lvl 70+ try that for a challenge and hek is already nerf and yes its an end game weaps
