1)Heavy Acid Beam Cannoon

I have a big problem with this weapon: when I shot a target Im attacked by all the enemies in the area of 30 meters (more or less). In the weapon description I see "area damage: 6 meters". Why do I hit enemies 30 meters far from my target?!? When there are several enemies around it's a big, big problem, because they all attack me.


2)Viceversa:

with particle beam cannoon I don't deal any damage to the enemies near my target, even if they are inside the area damage of 6 meters.


3)Heavy Acid Rifle

When I shot a target too close to me, I become blind because of the acid, and that's ok. But it happens even if my target is 30-35 meters far. Is it normal?


Can somebody explain me?


Thanks

As you can see from a lot of the posts in this forum, our weapons are really messed up at the moment. AoE isn't doing damage, just aggroing. And, yes, no matter how far away I am, the HAR blinds me too. HPBC is acting more like a single target weapon for me. It only aggros stuf if they're REALLY packed tightly together. It's the commando weapon I use the most because I find it's the safest.


There's issues with creature distances that I hope the devs are aware of and working on. The creature warping bug is back with a vengeance, and creatures can melee hit you from 40m away if they've hit you once already.

The HPBC is only suppose to hit enemies that are in a straight line, i.e a realy realy narrow cone "AoE". The other commando weapons have a wider cone or a radial AoE, therefor they aggro more enemies.

Plasma is a higher level / higher damage version.
