"Arc Raiders got a fresh set of patch notes for its 1.3.0 update this morning. The update includes a variety of changes across the board, but perhaps most important are the changes to a two-shot pistol that's been causing havoc and devastation for anyone on the receiving end of its twin barrels. Here are all the changes impacting in-game weapons and items:"
"The cost of ammo for the Hullcracker has also shifted, and arguably not for the better. Whereas you could snag a pack of 10 from the in-game traders for 6,000 Coins, you'll now get 6 launcher ammo for 4,500. As one comment thread on Reddit discusses, this might have the run-on effect of seeing fewer people rushing the Arc Queen as they'll be a little less equipped, and with weaponry that requires some more careful aiming."
Patch 1.3.0 rebalances multiple weapons and adjusts explosion behavior. The Venator pistol has been retuned after being capable of outgunning full squads at close range. Explosions were reduced in potency, with the Hullcracker launcher requiring greater accuracy and dealing slightly less damage to large Arc enemies. Hullcracker ammo packs were changed from 10 for 6,000 Coins to 6 for 4,500 Coins. The change may reduce the number of players rushing the Arc Queen due to reduced ammunition and increased aiming demands. Several bug fixes improve bullet collision and address wall-glitch exploits, with specific improvements on the Blue Gate map.
