Hi,
With the new Engineering options for Guardian modules, I was wondering if the bugged Plasma Chargers were working now? I did a build using Guardian Plasma Chargers some time ago, but they were not doing any damage to the target Orthrus. The Orthrus' shields were not going down any faster than their natural depletion rate, and they did little or no damage to the hull either. Regular EAX MCs I'd also been playing with did consitent damage, but not enough to kill the Orthrus before it fled.
Note: I'd been testing these at Spire Sites, but considered using them to attack a Titan Core too...except they didn't actually work at the Spire Site, dealing basically no damage.
I originally followed an older guide for a Guardian Plasma Charger build, and saw it making short work of an Orthrus. I'm not talking about the more recent video by Mechan, where he uses the pre-engineered version that came later, but an earlier guide by someone else from before they were available. Sure, the original GPC is not as effective, but it should do pretty decent damage none the less. At least, the video I watched show them performing well.
For me, using this weapon, it's literally been like they're doing barely any damage at all, which must be a bug. It was like the instance was bugged and damage wasn't being counted, yet I was alone, no other commanders around. On the same build, the Cytoscrambler burst lasers - that I fitted to get through the Orthrus' shield, didn't do any damage either. So perhaps it was just the instances that were bugged... several times in a row. Using AX Missiles though, worked great, it was just the Cyto / Plasma Charger built that didn't work.
I'm a little salty because I used one of my remaining Guardian Weapon Blueprints for these weapons, and they simply did not work. Considering how bugged out the process of obtaining those blueprints was - with me regularly NOT being rewarded with the BP at the end - I'm even more salty lol. I did the work to unlock ALL Guardian Weapons, with some spare, but I was rewarded far less than I earnt. That's why it stings so much to waste one.
So, has anyone used the regular Guardian Plasma Chargers lately? Did they do any damage to the target for you?
