Grattler Has Punch Through?

[jollter]

Why exactly does the grattler have punch through? The rockets don't explode on contact with any enemies, and it completely kills the point of even buying it. They will explode at the 250 meter limit, but never when in contact with enemies. It's literally just a wanna-be version of a bolto with it's syndicate augment. Only the explosion will miss 100% of the time because it happens about 200 meters behind the enemy you shot at.

There is no point in the Grattler anyway. It has a slow firerate, like the Velocitus, and they gave it bloody MAGNETIC damage, for EXPLOSIVE shells.... again, the same problem the Velocitus has.

Magnetic is the worst damage type, and so they put it on weapons that makes no sense. An EXPLOSIVE cannon, should have BLAST damage, not MAGNETIC, as it has NOTHING to do with magnetism whatsoever.

The Velocitus had to be buffed FOUR times to be anywhere near worthwhile, and even now, it's still completely overshadowed by the Imperitus, the stock, and best Archwing gun. Most Archwing guns are garbage, the only decent ones are Imperitus and Fluctus.

Well I appreciate the opinion, but this isn't about it being a terrible gun. I don't know if punch through was intended or not, but if it was then it's a horrible idea. I'd personally love the weapon if it would just make the explosions work on contact with enemies, so it does the actual AOE that it's promising to give off.

Completely agree with this. I was wondering if that was a mistake when i first read it's stats.
