Oh god, damage upgrade to the Pomson? Just what we needed....

But no penetration.


That could work.

Wait, so you could shoot someone through someone else with the Pomson before? Man, I really have not been bothering to notice what those stupid rayguns do. Because they're all stupid.

The Pomson lost half its hilarity in this patch.

What was the deal with this? Was it OP in MVM or something?

i'd say it was more about medics being mad about not being able to hide behind their patients to avoid the uberdraining beam

 

[tyler]

If they nerfed it because it was too good against robots, that'd be hilarious

Nah the vast majority of comp and SPUF agreed the Pomson was broken in high level environments. It was banned pretty much everywhere, even UGC Highlander (the most lenient league there is) had to ban it. Many are still not fond of the uber drain existing at all but it's definitely not overpowered anymore now at least
