Nerf Maraurders

<< < (2/2)

Ganado:
Marauders are nice way to farm 10mm around NCR. Nerfing them will just make them equivalent to Regulators, which need a boost, and nerfing will just make 10mm even easier to mindlessly farm. They've actually nerfed Marauders at least twice, once with the HKp90s since it was too easy to farm, and now there is usually only 1 10mm SMG per encounter, the rest have 10mm pistols.

One thing I can say is to slightly change the location of them. There should not be any Marauder encounter on the tiles that are bordering NCR, they could be a little farther out, not right against the outskirts.

Most NPC's and critters wait for a second in RT battle so the player has time to fully load the encounter but I have 'woken up dead' a few times with marauders from a premature burst to the face.

Works the same for all encounters, it was either a bad combination of lag, or you want to think there is a problem.

that's annoying.

You probably went into someone else's encounter and they'd already left

TheGreenHand:
Mostly I agree with Lagmaster, though I think the biggest problem with the Marauders isn't their power but just their adjacency to NCR. They're everywhere around there, which can be frustrating to poor nooblings who don't have enough HP to withstand a couple potshots or enough awareness to avoid them. The gangs and mercenaries and such around New Reno and San Francisco are tough too, but those are considered more 'advanced' areas so people going to them tend to be of a higher level. So just moving them would solve the problem, I don't think a nerf of their weapons is necessary.

Reiniat:
Marauders bursting you isnt a problem if you have high PER or Cautious Nature wich are needed for properly PvE fights.

I think that the real problem is:
-They have closer bursters
-They have pistol criplers

so his attack way is even more dynamic than the one from other critters (like Rangers or Patrols)

lol if the reason to nerf Marauders is: "NCR is a n00b hole" then i suggest to give to marauders more power, maybe 3 bursters per encounter.
Maybe the Marauders are jobing with the NCR government with the extraofficial asignment of kill the scum...newbies deads is only colateral damage.

LagMaster:
yeah. moving them is the best solution
