I just realized that Airburst Link Grenades afford no means of dodge or reaction. This seems ridiculous. Heavy weapons dudes are not playing around.
People talk about how direct damage spells are broken and whatnot because they rely only on willpower + counterspelling to resist and airburst link grenades are similar in that you can only resist with body+impact armor. In fact airburst link grenades are worse because they don't require LOS, you can shoot an area and affect all the people hiding behind cover. Why haven't I heard this being called broken before? Is it cause it's not too stealthy? |
