Hey dude, thanks for the info. I remember when it first came out drone spamming was a big thing with Moze, so much so that they massively nerfed their damage. Haven't looked at it since then, might give it a go if the damage is there. Appreciate the heads up.

1. Thumbs up SGZ! 2. The Kaoson and the Backburner are the worst, stingiest farms ever...in my experience. 3. How can Moze use the Complex Root without killing herself?
Avoiding splash damage rolls especially radius can help. A purely shock root with no fire in the skag den etc with a transformer will work. The problem is you'll become progressively weaker trying to mitigate it. It's just one of those things.

yes, these are nice weapons, until you get killed by your own splash damage. i swear, half the time i got killed is because of my own guns. how about you make a video to stop this bullshit?
What even is splash damage? Are these guns having water fights in the pool? What am I even counting down rn?

That makes sense I never understood the hype for the complex root, even with my god-build moze it was still okay nothing crazy but definitely usable.

Hot take: the complex root is shit. It only works due to an exploit. And a gun that only works, because of an exploit is not a good gun.
But it's great when you want to commit self deletion... LOL it can work but I hate it also.. JMO
it is by far the best splash sniper even without the splash radius bug
The root is good even without the exploit, with the exploit ofc it’s really strong but it’s not shit lol ur not using it right
Boom Sickle can kill you with a "boom", but in reality it is not doing splash damage. So many things are cryptic in this game.
is it just me or is it every video his hey get's longer?
