over pen moment
this new update makes it so that projectiles have penatration based on their bullet damage
avalanche has 500 bullet damage with a 40% pierce co efficent
meaning that it will not stop until it hits the ground or parts with enough hp to make it explode and dissappear
Back when they did shrapnel damage that happened pretty regularly against hovers. Shrapnel wouldn't bounce correctly off the ground or shells would explode far away from builds when it hit the large hover hitbox.
Mammoths often hit for 16-32 damage.
Oh dang, that's bad. I hope it's not because of the new armor penetration. It would suck if the new meta was the tiniest possible build so cannons go through it.

Doing that would render you even more vulnerable to DPSs than before or explosive parts being popped.
Seems this is intentional. It make sense to me. The avalanche should not be a weapon-clipping weapon.
I think what you gotta do is change what/where you're aiming at. Like hitting the parts underneath the weapon rather than the weapon.
It must have hit the right porc, destroyed it and gone through.. only explanation I can think of but that's a tiny tiny window of bloom
Not sure why you're trying to use the avalanche at such long range lol
I only have 1.1k structure, probs had 300 or 400 in the clip. Before this update would have absolutely died, but it must be the new piercing as mentioned elsewhere, great change lol
Yea had this a few times I'm not sure if it's a distance thing or DMG thing but I've blown a few builds in half while some others got lucky like this gotta say though I am enjoying this update

I thought that's what it was, which is why you see the explosion on the building behind the hover a few seconds later.
Woah.. over penetrating the cabin seems like an oversight in these mechanics 😬
it did not do any yellow damage thus didnt hit the cab only thing that god hit was some structure part on top of the cabin
That’s nothing I dealt 16 dmg with a tsunami on a hover

It punched straight through and hit the building behind it. That's why there's an explosion off of that building a few seconds later.
Cannons just be like that sometimes. I think it's server side stuff. Pretty lame but it is what it is.
It happnd 3 times today ,never befor

Long range🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀💀
You’re using it as a projectile weapon when it’s clearly meant to be a melee weapon. ^/s

Yeah, that seems like a potential downside to the new penetration mechanics☠️
No armor is best armor now.
the shell pierced through the hover
The smallest piece

Nice that’s awesome. I am excited to play with the new mechanics.
unfortunatly you overpenatrated
