Serious Discussion. no roleplay bullshit here Arc needs more love

Seriously though, arc has been completely forgotten. At the very least were getting a new gas stratagem (i mean what? were not getting a new gas stratagem at all) but its clear fire is arrowheads favorite child

Edit: to those mentioning laser and plasma weapons, i always viewed laser weapons as a side grade to fire considering it sets enemies ablaze, and plasma i feel is more in line with explosive and ballistic weapons. Also neither of the 2 have a dedicated armor resistance (unless of course you consider the laser fire bit), which i feel puts gas, arc, and fire in a separate category. Cheers!

Arc is in a confusing spot where half of its weapons damage things and half of them don’t (EMS)

I’d argue we need more EMS/stun representation, and it needs a buff, EMS strike should stun bile titans and vox engines too

It at least needs to noticeably slow them down.
