Tried my Oxide today for the first time after patch. Ran into a Wolfhound, hit him with 3 full alpha at knife fight range before he killed me... did 70 damage.

In another match i watched a Griffin 3M with SRM4 Artemis. He hit several volleys... 86 damage.

Is SRM4 bugged? Or all SRM having hit rec issues?

Might just be the significant spread nerf they got a while ago.

Skilled spread reduction, and at knife fight range spread doesn't matter... you will be hitting something, dealing damage.

I didnt feel it on my shadowhawk with 4 srm4 no artemis but i mostly fought big targets.

Srms seem to spray all over the mech now.

I can feel and see the spread difference with my Javelins. Your just appearing as though you're hitting, and what is making contact is spreading over hit boxes; aim for the fatties.

4x SRM4 is 16 missiles for ~33 damager per volley. 2 volleys would be ~66 damage if all missiles hit, 99dmg for 3 volleys all hitting.

The numbers in the thread do not seem too unreasonable for only getting 2-3 volleys off before death

Ah, i was under the impression that SRM4 was 2.5 damage.

Had no issues with the spread, though. With skilled reduced spread it is better than before, although that was to be expected since i don't use Artemis in my Oxide.
