Explosive Payload bugged in Checkmate

The nerf to handcannon body shot damage also double nerfed any handcannons with explosive payload. For example, a 140 with explosive payload cannot kill in 3 crits because the explosive damage is no longer doing it's intended damage. Please address

  • EP (and Timed Payload on that note) has always been coded as explosive damage which is unable to hit crits. Not gonna get that crit multiplier. The benefit of EP is extra stagger (i guess) and the benefit that half of your damage experienced no damage falloff. It’s a forgiveness perk. If you’re always hitting your heads and know what range 3 heads would kill, move away from EP. [spoiler]casualty of the nerf, but entirely intended[/spoiler]

    • Sounds correct to me. It looks like they are considering the explosive shots to be body shot damage. Same with the rest of the explosive weapons.
