Crusher Opinions

[Heckenshutze]

A flamer and a shotgun can stop a crusher easily.
Still, I won't deny they need a tweak, or.. what jroinc said. And force the Matador to only know spanish.

"Muere engendro del demonio!"

please..something. Also, flamers do seem pretty weak against crushers for how unfriendly they are to use (long delays between firing, potential for self harm, limits movement or chasing).

Honestly, and it pains me to say this, because it forces Crushers to team up with other Xenos to kill anything, but Crushers need to be shit at melee. Their best and only attack should be the charge and stomp combo. Crushers need to lose the ultimate tackle that allows them to destroy anyone with a stomp and laugh off the punishment.

They're tanks. Occasionally linebreakers, but Crushers need to be team players, and spamming Crushers should severely reduce a hive's offensive potential.

I forced 2 crushers to retreat with just my unrobust self and a flamer, they can be handled in the right circumstances.

For all I know, I think you just got lucky with handling a couple of newb crushers. That or both of them were low health.

The flamer is at the moment, utter shit useless. It does very little damage and can be very easily extinguished by a simple resist. A smart xeno player can easily walk into a flamed tile and have little consequences.

Also, unless there was a secret change that the devs input to the flamer, I think my statement stands decently.

Most people will flock to what is the most powerful in the meta..not necessarily the most balanced. Crushers still have their place..but they aren't the heavy killers they used to be. Ravagers are that role.
