BioWare Pls

The damage they deal truly is incredible, compared to their ME3 counterpart.

Incredible by comparison to say an Avenger I, they never said comparatively how strong it is.

I do however firmly believe that if the Cobra is to remain a Consumable, ergo you can run out of them at some point then they need to be at least TWICE as strong as they are now.

If a Hydra is left standing on Gold from a Cobra it should have like an 8th or 10th of its health left, not requiring an additional Cobra or 2 to put down.

As is right now a direct hit from a Cobra doesn't even kill a full health/shield Sharpshooter on Gold, that's the third weakest enemy of the Outlaw faction behind Adhi and Raiders.

The face you make when two on fire Berserkers and Mech are still standing there on your clutch hack is incredible.

still does incredible damage vs Destroyer tho

biower pls

This exactly! I just had a few matches and I used the cobra rpg a few times and when it didn't kill the destroyer, I was like... "did I do it wrong?" And I kept trying it a few times but it was the same thing. I thought it'd be exactly like in me3 and kill the damn thing or explode it to pieces but nope, there was hardly any damage done. I don't see the point with the rpg as it is now.

My piranha tsol can do more damage to hydras than using rockets lol

Bioware obviously wanted to prevent rocket speed runs, which bioware pretty much created in me3 by giving us 6 rockets and armored compartments. But they took it too far as usual.

Giving us massive maps, more than 8 enemies, ascendents and making rockets take 2 hours to actually be pulled out already prevents that. Buff the damage please bioware.

I'm actually fine with it the way it is. Maybe Ascendants should be a bit more vulnerable to it. Maybe a moderate bonus to direct hit damage. But that's it.

If it doesn't deal absolutely insane damage and some kits/builds may even deal better damage without it, what's the problem? Not every kit needs Ammo Packs or First Aid Packs either. Many casters can certainly use the significant spike damage against big armour.

Cobra in ME3MP was total overkill. It took about 5 ms to use and annihilated everything in a 10 meter radius. A cheap get-out-of-jail-free card.

People already complain that the game is too easy. If the devs buff weapons/powers/combos and/or nerf enemy hitpoints - which they absolutely should do - it will be even easier. Punishing the player for bad positioning and situational awareness is the good kind of difficulty the game sorely needs. Buffing Cobras would undermine that.

I know it can be frustrating when neither your weapons nor your powers don't seem to do much, but devs need to fix the real problem - damage-spongy enemies - not give us crutches to manage the problem.

Don't forget in ME3 we had much more boss type enemies then we have in andromeda.

I think that on gold, it's perfectly sensible if the heavier units require multiple Cobras to take down, meaning you use them to soften up targets, not take them out.
Gold is meant to be hard, not "Cobra your way out of the heavies" like Bronze.

I really hope the new missile glitch comes out very soon. It's the only acceptable solution to the cobra rpg problem as far as I'm concerned.

It's the same thing.
