But I think Punchers suck. I am totally not impressed. I don't care what the listed stats say: the lockdown accumulation is underwhelming. They're also not all that potent for damage.
I have four on a Behemoth and they're disregarded quite frequently by my targets. It's like shooting a target with angel kisses.

As per pix standards, these were once feared by all especially on a behemoth.
The increase in bullet spread nerf was it's demise and made it impractical for a 500m weapon.

Bro just saying the name reminds me of good times...
But yes, they are pretty bad now. Coincidentally I had the same revelation today as I went head to head with a Puncher Seraph with my half destroyed Nether. I was definitely under 75k health, he unloaded the full clip as he landed on me and I only dropped about 20k. Killed him with Magnetars shortly after.

That last nerf was the nail in its coffin. Used to be so fun blasting things with a quad puncher Boe. Now I think they hit worse than regular punishers. They really need to stop over nerfing stuff. Same with the explosive expert on avalanches. That was a neat build that you never see anymore.

I wish they'd only nerfed the Avalanche instead of the explosive expert. I used to love playing my Flaming Trashcan Erebus. Now it is lousy and a pretty much waste of a hanger slot unless I want to risk life and limb just to provoke a Titan. |

Agree, totally. Very underwhelming weapon indeed.

When I first put Mk2 Punchers on my Mk2 Orochi they were pretty damn effective. I ran circles around guys with less agile 'bots. I played a custom match with my son the other day as he wanted to test out my stuff. I was surprised that it took as long as it did to beat down his rudimentary Mk1 Natasha. I figured Punchers may have been nerf'd, and you guys just confirmed that.
