No bodyshots today

David_H79 · May 2018

Thx for the special event today.
Now my melee come out to play.
I love it.

Still body shots on armored. I get it, but, it said no body shots... @Kaz ?

marie1980 · May 2018

Yeah,im still getting trashed,there's no difference

Kaz · May 2018

Thanks for creating the thread again, David! I've tried to merged the 2 bodyshot threads and accidentally merged some very old thread too, haha.

Anyway! One thing to remember: Tank Walkers can't be stunned and Armored Walkers can still cause bodyshots.

@thisdoesfine Yes:D

I've just got BS on normal walker...

Try to kill the app and open it again, that should do the trick!

JayZ · May 2018

Here are some strategies for players on the higher challenge level missions:
- Bring Bruisers on high level missions, especially Opposing Forces. Their stun will work 100% of the time! (Except for the time when my game glitched and the stun didn’t work)
- Put away your Piercing weapons and get your Interrupt weapons back out! This can make a huge difference in tight, crowded maps like Kill Room and Two Way. I like to bring two Assaults, which can sweep all of the regular walkers, and a Shooter to Interrupt high level walkers
- Now is a great time to try out new heroes! They may not have as many pink stars as your regular team, but they’ll still be serviceable now that they’re not delivering body shots. Don’t forget to equip them with badges!
- Don’t forget about Sure Shot and Power Strike. Now that we don’t have to worry about body shots, you can actually expect to land critical attacks on high level walkers. I’m bringing Daryl and his leader trait out of retirement for this.
- Sasha is not quite as useful as before. If you’re like me, Sasha is one of your favorites at high levels. She won’t benefit you as much, but I still find two uses for her. First, she has 4 other really good traits and is my best badged Hunter. Second, she can be used on Through the Wire with all of the armored walkers.

TJS · May 2018

I was under the impression this was part of the weekend event.

It only started today?

David_H79 · May 2018

Part of the week was a 70% cap on bodyshots.
Today only bodyshots are gone @TJS

After the restart bs's are still there. Only sometimes but not 0% as should be.
(There were at hideout and at locker where only normal walkers appear.)

similar here...

Bodyshots still there and freeman bruiser still gets 2 hits a turn

Kaz · May 2018

Ok, so I've sent a message to one of the devs and it seems that Ranged Survivors have a passive small chance to cause a Bodyshot no matter the type of walker you are fighting against. Melee Survivors don't have this passive chance and they won't cause any Bodyshot during the event.
Sorry for the confusion!

I'd say that Bruisers are an interesting option today! Also, check those awesome tips from @JayZ

kmr · May 2018

Thanks for the clarification!

R2runfast · May 2018

Yeah @pirate1125, whats the deal with bruiser being able to extinguish being on fire, interrupt a walker, and still have an attack left?

Jenng · May 2018

No body shots , huh?! Guess I should grab a glass 🥃 then. 😁
Only for today though!

Glad they fixed it in 2.10

bladgier · May 2018

I'm loving it. This challenge rewards, events, no bodyshots etc it's like Christmas come early and lots times better!

Now it's hard for me to decide if double radios is better than this 😀😀

I'm having a blast and already beaten my all time higher rsl by one and closing in on 2!

Thanks NG, well done!

Debbo34 · May 2018

FYI myself and at least two members of my guild are still getting body shots today. I wasnt getting any until I started using Sasha. Even though I stopped using her now I am still occasionally getting body shots.

Wow, I love this boost! Got through 34.1 with 3 stars on all 6 levels without a sweat (okay, maybe with a bit of sweat and a lot of damage reduction badges).

Metal · May 2018

So it turns out again that the 100% like they said turned out to be another false advertisement but cool I guess

SlickRick · May 2018

This challenge is like Kaboom 2.0 now...are we going to get asterisks by our scores like Barry Bonds??

CBgaming1969 · May 2018

@Kaz , I was out of town doing work around her house, so needless to say I really didn't get to take advantage of this special event...

...but it is awesome and I hope NG does this event, hopefully as a whole weekend event on multiple occasions in the future!!!

ShadowaceAz · May 2018

Thank you!

Metal · May 2018

Hey Jay Z where the vid on thru the wire

JayZ · May 2018

@Metal sorry, added the wrong vid. It should be up now! Ty

Metal · May 2018

Thx man big help

CBgaming1969 · May 2018

Still love the event, but get some bodyshots still @Kaz

Not many, but still some...

Armored walkers carry an innate level of bodyshot, so that'll still happen. There's also a small chance of bodyshots generally that won't disappear.

Armored walkers are likely to be the biggest problem though.

lyts1985 · May 2018

Fantastic event, for the first time in a long time I've really enjoyed playing this week, between the 1min gas and the bodyshot changes, not to mention the extra rewards and round passes.

Brilliant, thoroughly enjoyed it. But next week is going to suck :-(

Howdy, Stranger!
