The railgun was kinda gross with how much ammo it had and how easily it could deal with chargers in safe mode

Yup, just switch to unsafe mode. It’s still great.

Nah, it takes ~4 unsafe shots to strip a charger leg now, so a little over twice as long.

You are probably not shooting unsafe shots. Just switching to unsafe isn’t enough, you have to let it charge above where the safe mode stops. They literally didn’t change anything about the unsafe shots so it should still take 2 hits with these (disclaimer: it may be bugged though. I saw the writing on the wall and stopped using the railgun a while ago, and have still not used one since)

Safe shots now just bounce off the armor entirely so trust me it’s easy to tell if you’re on safe. Anyway here’s video proof of a guy testing it on unsafe mode: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4qWchqvay44

He can get it in 3 if he gets a high charge buts it’s more like 4-5 on average.
