Striker Weapon Swap: GL Edition - Master Striker on Dawn - Gears 5 Horde Frenzy 11-4-2021
We keep finding out that more weapons can be used with Blunt Instruments and so this is a mini series of matches I guess lol
First it was Torque Bow, then it was Scorcher, and now this is our go of the GL! I only did 2 matches of this before I ended up getting this, and I'd say it's the trickiest one yet mainly because of ammo consumption.
Obviously this wasn't a way that the Striker was intended to be played, so that means you don't have any ammo capacity, no perks, nothing to help out with this. AND there's no enemy that uses the GL (thank goodness) so that means you have to buy all your GL's. For me, it seemed like 3 was a solid spot, but I could absolutely argue 4 of them which is 12,000 - 16,000 power.
I also didn't think to ask someone to switch to Tactician, otherwise that would've been magical. So I just banked on the power of the weapons locker and ammo boxes.
Even then though? The damage was absurrrrrrd. A tad bit harder to judge when to weapon swap because sometimes you just don't know if the rockets are going to flat-out kill the enemy in the case of smaller juvies and drones clustered together. But if you got a tanky enemy and you get that aim on point, the damage is arguably so so good. I'd say the Scorcher probably dishes out a bit more damage since it stacks with the burning damage which lasts longer than the initial hit, but this gives you range and that's lovely.
Give it a shot! Next up I'll be trying Dropshot, and if you have any other ideas for Striker swaps let me know!
