Talk:Redeemer/@comment-24666590-20160217114126

Ok, I don't know about anyone else but I used the redeemer religiously prior to 1st week of january 2016 (the last time I played the game). A month and a half later I come back and play today and the redeemer is performing like 25% of what it use to do.

Ok the speed up of charge attack is decent (a bit too fast in my opinion), but the damage is nerfed massively. 126k+ damage was what a single hit did with ivara under stealth almost all the time. now It's taking 5 to 10 shotgun blast to kill the same targets I use to one shot under the same conditions.

So that alone makes the weapon totally useless because with the way it performs now, I'm better off using something like orthos prime or nikatana or something because those weapons easily outperform the redeemer now. I know because I switched to them and ran the same content and I melted enemies in one hit with them, but redeemer no longer one hits anything.

So sad, a great and different weapon is now useless except unless you like style over actual performance...but yeah, style don't win games. If I want style, i'd use nunchuks or something that actually looks cooler than a fuckin redeemer combo.
