    You can do the same thing vs anyone using the glider rig. the mightys don't have a special weakness to a boomerang. It locks on to the target regardless of their size.

    This doesn't exactly nullify the mighty having the same speed with the glider rig.

    No. It reduces damage by a flat 20%. Mightys get a bigger benefit from it just being that their healthpool is larger.
    You know, I don't mind mightys, to be honest. My big problem is all the defensive boosts stacking with no diminishing returns. Tough as Nails (75% damage reduction) + Body Armor (20% damage reduction) + Kinda Bulletproof (5% damage reduction) = 100%. Bullet immune for 15 seconds.

    If you don't have super eyes it's pretty easy to not see a Mighty until they've already started their dive, in which case a smaller body better get out of the way or that big fat lummox will kill you, if the dive doesn't then a single bullet from the handy dandy Jackhammer will.

    It's fantastic that you are a Mighty predator, not everyone is, and this isn't even about how hard it is to kill a Mighty, it's about the game clearly favoring them in every aspect, your points about the Mighty being an easy kill are irrelevant to the subject.
    Do you have good moxy?

    I didn't know that, I figured that the Mighty got more out of the BA than other bodies but it's nice to see that they technically don't.

    Hate to break it to you but that build does have a special weakness to boomerang, due to the body armor. Not the mighty himself, but the body armor increases beartrap and boomerang effectiveness against you.

    But she didn't say the build doesn't have a special weakness, she said the Mighty doesn't, and I have never noticed an increase in effect from boomerangs, as long as you can spray you can ignore the effects of the boomerang.

    You do realize the armor's weakness to the boomerang is universal? It affects everyone the same across the board, and thus no one has any special benefit out of that. It doesn't even up the massive gap in diffirence with perks.

    Even then a boomerang will stun everyone regardless of armor unless they have the hard headed perk, which, naturally, affects everyone the same, thus not giving the lighter body any special advantage.

    The gap remains in the perks.

    Well, goggles are Great for taggin and baggin Mightys with Gliders for people with poor vision. Also, it will help players learn their basic mind sets.



    And favoring is clearly a point of perspective. It favours my speedy to keep Mightys as is.. Nerfing the mighty might mean less Mighty Gilders. And then my speedy would be pointless.

    A Mighty dazed by a boomerang is soooooo much easier to KITE and kill from behind then a dazed speedy or nimble. Because even when dizzy as a speedy/nimble they can still dodge and move really fast.

    I get goose bumps when i can daze 2-3 Mightys and kite them perfectly, line them up in a row and kill them all with one clip from a Desperado with Pen bullets. lol...
