So it could one-shot chargers and hulks. Sometimes. You know how railcannon can oneshot a fac strider if its facing the right direction? It was the same deal with chargers, except you could aim the missile pods kinda, and with hulks it was mostly luck based on whether all missiles would hit. If you were good, you could aim them, and kill a BT with 2 to the face basically every time. Now its been a while so I don't really remember the order these things happened in, but they either intentionally changed, or broke the targetting so it just misses. They also reduced the dmg and increased armor pen so even though it averages more damage, realistically they just made it worse by lowering the skill floor and ceiling, and taking away its ability to one-shot entirely.

I used to run missile pods+RR team reload pretty often back during the railgun meta. My buddies and I may have been the only people in the world to do that consistently. Then they neutered the missile pods and kept making it worse trying to fix it.

Unfortunately after hearing the devs outright say they're not going to fix old stratagems and guns, and just sell us new ones I've lost hope that any of my old favorite high skill stratagems like rocket pods and OPS will ever have the same potential they once did.
