Instant shield break, up to 6 seconds of freeze, and on an extremely short cooldown that is fired with an extremely fast projectile that has a large blast radius, this thing is blatantly unfair, and conveniently part of the 30 dollar starter pack, out of all the P2W arguments, this thing takes the cake

I mean you can craft siren pritty easyly once you hit level 80

It’s a rare torso meanwhile if constantly have momentum you can get frozen and still move and when you get frozen by a sniper don’t stare at him being still spin around because you spread the damage all around (ridiculous yes) it works because of how the game mechanics for killing mechs work

#

I will say the orkin one clip meta with siren is busted sense you die regardless but that is because of the weapon more than the torso certain weapons need a weight reduction and weight increase instead of damage nerfs to balance out how many you can carry

#

That would be better for people that invested time (salvage and intel) into a weapon then getting butchered by the developers

The turning doesn't work vs any height advantage, which even on flat ground can be gained via jumping.

Even if this does work, do you seriously not realize how broken a torso is that it just forces you to not be able to fight back, and instead have to turn away for the opponent in a struggle to even survive

You never actually beat a siren player, you survive encounters with them at absolute best, that's not fun or interesting game design

What’s broken are the time to kill weapons that take less than 6 seconds to kill like one clip orkins rockets and harpy torso incinerator one clips people

cloud jackal
#

Harpy torso is a far more inconsistent, slower projectile, and does not freeze you for 6 seconds, and maybe does 75% of your shield or 35% of a parts HP

hexed meadow
#

Siren punisher is strong if you get frozen in the open and beams in the leg

cloud jackal
#

It's strong, but it's not a guaranteed kill

#

You can't just fire a harpy at 300 meters and score a guaranteed kill

hexed meadow
#

I’ve had 16k tick damage with harpy incinerator build

#

Significantly different from throwing an instant shield break, and then 80k damage on a part within 4 seconds

rocky estuary
#

Harpy can’t kill you from a safe distance

hexed meadow
#

Yes it can

cloud jackal
#

Harpy incin also locked to like, 150 meters, and still needs a shield break before it does real damage

#

Siren does the shield breaking for you, free of charge

rocky estuary
#

Deflecting the issue frfr

#

It would be much more balanced if instead of freezing you it did a slow down freeze effect, like 70% slow down that scales with upgrades or just have it accumulate over time once it hits you then it freezes you in place, would give players more time to react.

I like how all of the arguments in favor of siren has been "if you do this, you can survive it maybe"

#

When do we ever kill the siren

#

🙂‍↕️

#

Yellow legs when fired from a safe distance, yes

Harpy isn't guaranteeing a kill though

hexed meadow
#

That’s one harpy torso imagine a team with 5 harpy’s

cloud jackal
#

That's also with help from incin DOT

cunning wasp
#

Skill issue

#

So not a crazy concept

hexed meadow
#

Siren you still need the damage to kill them

rocky estuary
#

They can chain freeze

hexed meadow
#

That’s chain cc needs nerf yes but that’s it

cloud jackal
#

🙂‍↕️

#

You are shooting fish in a barrel

Its like a night and day difference

Lmao

#

Both at the same time

rocky estuary
#

Like, bro died before the pilot even finished saying "movement impaired" 😂

cloud jackal
#

Siren even hit your teammate next to you with that btw

rocky estuary
#

Its ridiculously broken and defending it against a slight nerf is crazy

Should have been dashing

#

Oh wait

#

🙂‍↕️

hexed meadow
#

Either way that was a bad push regardless wasn’t even in flamethrower range your just trying to get tick damage

cunning wasp

#

I would’ve pushed the guy on the rock using my fuel to jump over him

#

Siren isn’t what’s one clipping you it’s orkin rockets if you nerf siren they will just use orochi torso

cloud jackal
#

Orochi torso doesn't lock them in place though, and it has a minimum range

#

This is just bad faith argument made by siren users man

rocky estuary
#

takes 5-7 business days to get there too lmao

hexed meadow
#

Good orochi players use it in the right moments

cloud jackal
#

Orochi also doesn't have a weapon slot, reducing the damage by 20%

cloud jackal
#

Also you said it yourself, orochi players have to wait for the right moments

#

As opposed to siren where you just fling it out and get easy value without thinking

cunning wasp
#

Well, maybe at level 1 it could freeze for few second less, but can't change completely the torso ability. We can't expect all robots to adapt to our playstyle to be beaten.

cloud jackal
#

It needs to lose the shield nuking entirely

#

And then maybe a 20% reduction in freeze time

hexed meadow
#

You can’t just fling it and get kills unless you have the weapons that have fast kill times

cloud jackal
#

💀

#

Even if you are for some reason using siren with bad weapons, immobilizing a target for 6 seconds and breaking their shield is immense value

#

Siren is not the main issue

#

The time to kill weapons are

cloud jackal
#

Punishers,orkans,and potentially shredders are relatively benign outside of siren

sharp jasper
#

Yes, it absolutely is.

cloud jackal
#

If a torso is enabling everything else to be OP

#

It's the torso at fault

#

Honestly siren probably works great with close range weaponry as well, it's just there's no need when you already kill everything with orkans or punishers

#

The weapons that siren enables require both broken shields and constant LOS to pop off

Siren is the only thing that guarantees both

#

Barely anybody would call punishers OP on their own

sharp jasper
cloud jackal
#

I get it bro, you spent 30 dollars on siren, you don't wanna have that money wasted, but you gotta let it go

hexed meadow
#

Assuming isn’t good for you

#

And movement out plays siren

cloud jackal
#

"Movement out plays the thing that cancels movement"

#

Yea okay man

#

💀

hexed meadow
#

Again if you have momentum it still allows you to move

sharp jasper
cloud jackal
#

Even if you are mid dash when you get hit, you aren't gonna be sliding for 6 seconds straight

#

Bffr

hexed meadow
#

If your on a slow build and get siren then that’s because of the slow build

cloud jackal
#

Everything murders slow builds anyway, that's just siren punching down

#

Lol

#

Ig the speed of your build doesn't matter when you are not gonna be able to move anyway though

sharp jasper
# cloud jackal

This video proves exactly why this argument of "momentum" doesn't mean a damn thing.

#

You're still in the open, still frozen and still dead.

cloud jackal
#

Momentum only saves you if you are already mid dash towards cover

#

Which is not a constant state of being, especially if you are trying to get anywhere

#

Why is a single torso forcing me to hide at all times anyway, surely that's problematic

hexed meadow
#

If you want siren nerf then harpy needs a nerf too

#

Siren doesn’t need chain cc and it needs a longer cooldown that’s it

#

25 seconds is way to short but that’s all

cloud jackal
#

Idc, as long as siren gets butchered
