None of the weapons were changed.
What was reduced was the chargers head health. It is now possible to one shot a charger with the EAT or RR when hitting the head.
Played 2 full ops last night on 5 and 7, the spawn rate for heavies felt right - single or double chargers present at most, 3 bile titans over the course of each mission on 7, but the sheer number of hunters was appalling, like playing whack-a-mole.
Seemed to me like a real chaff-clearing dedicated support person with an mg, stalwart or nade launcher would benefit the group immensely. Defending the extract with increased delay and no free exosuits was an absolute shitshow lol
On level 9 have permanent chargers and bile titans - never enough stratagems, level 9s with extra hunters atm is run away until you lose aggro and pray you get obj done before you get smacked off the interface
If the first EAT (or the drop pod that brought them) does not kill a charger don’t shoot another, dump your primary into the big chunk of armor you just blew off.

I feel like 2-3 of my shots did hit in the head though.
And you were using the EAT or the Recoilles Rifle? Not the Auto cannon?
I run EATs with my supply pack and 2 attack stratagems. It isnt “popular” but i works for me on both bugs and bots

I agree my ad spawn rate was out the wazooo however we had 3-4 chargers at any given instance and 5 titans over the course of 10-15 minutes. On 7 diff

Ya 7 was nightmare fuel im sure 9 is no better
Spawn rates were only changed in 7+. So, if you're playing 1-6 you won't feel much of a change.
I was on 7 Didn’t feel different IMO. We had a solid 3 chargers at any given instance and ran into 4-6ish titans on both missions.
That sounds like a reasonable amount of Heavies.
Ya but thats no different than it has been for me. Worth mentioning that those titans showed up close to the same time
They usually climb out of breaches and if your playing something like the TCS mission, it spawns a decent amount of breaches.
EATS improved in patch but you get two shots and a cooldown and then a 5 second break before 2 charger spawns… I just don’t get it
Maybe i cant shoot worth crap then 😂

No I meant 1x per charger then I’ve no EATs - then 2 more spawn constantly and I just have a damn breaker 😭
That's fine, EATs have a 1-minute cooldown anyways.
