I just noticed how bad this skill is: it does little damage, 1 second cast time, slow projectile, short radius and it only hits 3 targets.

It could use a significant buff:
Increase it damage by 50%, 0.75 cast time, increase projectile speed by 25%, double radius and increase target limit to 5.

yeah, it could, but in the meantime, at least grenades have an autoattack and bombs have almost no aftercast and speargun 2 is op

I guess it’s the price to pay for having access to kits underwater.

to be honest the #1 harpoon gun skill is just there to fill the gap.

use skill 2 and 4 in rotation with kits for under water combat

just with land combat u swap between kits / main weapon for the skills. so apply the same to water combat and boom awesome fun happy time.

once u learn to kit swap u will understand how awesome and powerfull the engineer is with access to sooo many skills and abilitys (6 per kit don’t forget the tool belts ! )

I’m very very glad to have such an underwhelming auto attack and to gain instead the by far highest underwater combad dps with #2 #4 and bomb aa. Grenades are semi good, they are our ranged option, but miss in melee very often, bombs also have a reduces cast time under water (like 25% faster than on land). EG or mines are fine too.
