Slug boys better than shoot boys ranged

[Quitch]

Apparently Slugga Boyz do more damage with heavy weapons like Big Shoota then Shoota Boyz, I've seen the figure 20% bandied about... surely a bug.

Wouldn't a sticky of "Confirmed and reported issues" be a good idea?

[Vertigo]

That would be my post, and the issue is for Big Shootas:

The numbers were between +13% and +31% more damage.

yea, but sluggas have HORRIBLE accuracy. Shootas' atleast are a little tuned to their role... I think.

[Nillsens]

Oh dear...

So this issue supposedly still isn't resolved?

Is Relic aware of this?

*cries*

I want a patch so bad... I'll pay for it.

[Lord_Morpheus]

Tests should be run to check accuracy vs damage.

[Minsc S2]

sluggas ARE overpowered, they must be nerfed in next patch!

(the best marineplayer couldnt win vs a simple slugga rush, thats baaaaad! :( )

I got slugga boy rushed last night, and won. It's not impossible.
