#Typhon Gear Buff & Bugfix

I've been using the Typhon torso a lot recently and I've noticed two things:

1) The jammer projectile needs a dramatic speed increase.
Against a stationary target at 550m it takes around 11 seconds, and even up close it takes considerable time, and again , that if they are not moving!

When in an actual match with moving bots, fights are usually 50 - 80% finished before my jammers actually land and as such have little to no impact on the fight.

They really need a speed boost.

2) There seems to be a bug(?) or oversight with the jamming mechanic.
If the projectile hits while an enemy is already mid-reload then it does not stop, reset, or lengthen the reload at all.

I first noticed this when I was fighting a Punisher bot. My jammer landed and played the voice line, but 2 seconds later they started unloading a fully reloaded punisher into me.

I agree. The typhon torso needs a huge projectile speed buff, probably closer to vortex projectile speeds.

Attached is video of current typhon torso's blackout missile time to reach targets at 155m, 305m, and 500m.

I believe the reason it doesn’t restart the reload on a weapon that is already reloading is to prevent typhon spam keeping you endlessly reloading. I don’t really mind it. It keeps you more mindful of the enemies’ ammo usage. What I do mind is my ability taking 5 business days to reach the target. You have to be a damn psychic to time the ability properly.
