Bolt action rifles a little too powerful now

Okay so I’m all for bolt action rifles getting buffed but now the damage seems a bit ridiculous tbh. Bolt action rifles can now one shot troops with vitality and even flamertrooper 2s when they have 47% more health! The vitality perk should still allow you to tank at least one shot from a bolt action rifle, while killing any troop without vitality.

The problem is the aim assist not the damage

Another banger from the guy asking for piat buffs a year ago

And your point is?

Yeah exactly like before. You should be able to tank a shot with vitality but it should one shot you if you’re not using vitality.

Good

Vitality perk is perfect now: it makes you endure long range smg spray and pray.

If someone manages to shoot you with a bolty, you should be dead.

Try using cover more, and use different routes. In ww2 (or any war really) I doubt soldiers were very keen to charge under enemy fire if given the choice… And they did not have Vitality perks, or any second life for that matter…

Honestly I’m all for the bolt actions getting buffed. You’re telling me taking a 30-06, 8mm mauser, or the ridiculous 8x56R to the leg or stomach is going to be a simple wound? Plus I see it as a balance to newbies who only have starter squads with bolt actions. Or level 31 campaign pshycos like myself that prefer giving bolt actions over some semi autos.

It’s a video game though with arcade elements like perks….

Because it makes vitality useless.

Real mature champ.

I’ve given up on serious responses to bad takes

Yes but literally every AI soldier has a bolt action. And it makes headshots with bolt actions pointless if you can one tap people in the arms or legs.

Don’t reply then dickhead…. It’s an opinion open for a discussion. If you have nothing relevant to comment, stfu.

My opinion > Your opinion

Whatever you say discord mod virgin.

Im agreeing with the buff, I just think the perk should actually do something against bolt action rifles in an arcade shooter.
