The damage weakness bonuses are completely changed

Art - 20%
Air - 35% (tested with blast bazooka, don't know how the damage type split is)
Land - 20%

Last I recall, grenades, rockets, blast bazookas and regular blast railguns did full blast damage, while standard bazookas and railguns did split shell/blast. This is a buff to mostly AIRs, as their weakness used to be more like 100% versus the others' 50% (these numbers are not exact, but that's how they felt!)

there's something up with bullets hitting each other and canceling out, it was a thing in EN but it wasn't as noticable

I recall melee being able to cut down non-beam, non-estes projectiles.
I also recall the "Destructor-type" missiles being able to hard-counter beams and trading with others. I had a Desuko with dual missile bits under a PS having a Jojo moment with 3 bots and a deployed shield. It was glorious!

I just noticed that EIW carts give 55 capacity.

ammo drain tune takes out 15% over like 9ish seconds, before it took out 50% if it wasn't overwritten.

Winerbel Arms nerfed so that there is a 5 second cooldown after alpha striking on all weapons. She could insta alpha strike again before I believe.

No? Even without moving burst and firing 5 weapons in total there's only 1,5 seconds cooldown. You must have some very slow weapons equipped.

Her arms would be the slowest weapon. I just tested again with alpha striking only with her arms and it takes around 5 seconds for it to cooldown before she is able to shoot or alpha strike again. It may have always been that way. It's been a long time since I used the original winerbel so I wouldn't be surprised if I remembered it wrong. I don't know about Winerbel ALE arms if she has the same thing.

A.L.E. Winberrl did have a notable cooldown on her drawguns, and their burstfire shooting didn't complement alpha striking well. I feel the rework was necessary as old Winberrl AMs were absolutely crippling to the poor soul on the wrong end of it. Practically every Tarantulic had them (mine used AM2, which shot 3 times per clip with no hand, but had a ton more ammo).

Is it just me, or did the devs mess with how melee works on the attacking robot? I'm finding it hard to chain Sonic Blade swings due to me passing through my target. It's gotten to the point that I switched to a Duel Rapier and am currently using it more like a Jumper Halberd than a rapier.
