Until the skill rework that meant only one target at a time. Now secondaries fire on whatever is available. 4 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Having targets on both sides for your secondaries to fire at is a position you don't generally want to be in. But when you DO get there, it sure is nice to know the gunners on the "other" side will actually fire their guns. Reasonable people can disagree on how much this matters, but there are certainly situations in which it DOES matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, you can select a manual target now, and every gun that can bear on it, will fire at it, but others that can't reach it don't shut down anymore. They find something else if there's something in range. Fires, fires everywhere. Edited February 3 by Kesh_Lives Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree. And I'd still prefer the 60% buff and only one target over the current skill. I don't play to bring both sides into play. The ebb and flow of battle found me in this position in this particular game. In fact, I was so involved in the engagement that I didn't even realize I was hitting two targets. In fact...I think it was three. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those 2 things are not dependent on secondaries and as such - really is meaningless. I can still get 3 Close Quarter Expert medals in one game (right after the rework) and that does means they work and are not "useless" by definition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

396 [SALTY] Kartaugh Beta Testers 684 posts 8,021 battles Report post #14 Posted February 3 I love when people rush to correct a response in jest to a post originally made in jest. As if my analysis of the state of secondaries was based on a single screenshot of a match by a different player. Ah, the luminaries of this forum always keep my black heart beating... P.S.: And yes, secondaries blow donkey chunks right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
