The Antax (and reportedly other combat axes) don’t do the correct damage to Maniacs with their heavy attacks. The Light Attacks seem to be functioning as intended.
The damage values of the heavy attacks against maniacs are so low, it requires upwards of 8 heavy attacks to kill a trapper, vs a single heavy attack to kill a hound (Heresy, w/ thrust).
I don’t think it’s bad for some attack types to work better against some targets, but the disparity here is so large it seems unintended.
Seriously FS, revert to the “hotfix” (that is not a fix obviously)… this is totally stupid to see that again.
I play with combat axe all the time, on my veteran and on my zealot (90% of my time I spend it with these 2 chars) and I think this is a bad move to have reverted the fix of the patch 5.
The fix was good and there was no problem in game… I killed lot of mutants since it that I can assure you there was no problem with it.
I cannot understand an"hotfix" that reintroduces a bug…
