I heard Stalker syn wont boost range on infectors

[Nate Murder]

So you did mod it with the appropriate mods right? Just asking because some people think you get the synergy bonuses without actually having to mod the weapon with the matching mods.



Well I guess that's the answer then it doesn't work.

I have every type of infectors. The immunizer is the only infector that has the homing range of 40, which extends the range to be used in an Anti-Sniper role. All of the other infectors such as FRC Incubator, FRC Innoculator, VBI INF-3 Canker, VBI Invader, VOT Afflictor, VOT Infector, and VOT Outbreaker, all have the same homing range of 20.

I have tried it multiple times and for whatever reason, the Stalker Synergy is useless on infectors and BMGs.

Like Arran said, hopefully it will be fixed in a future patch but until then, it's the exact same range.

you'd have to test it for yourself.

People have motive to lie either way. If you have stalker infectors/mods you'd say it does to maintain the high market value. If you want them you'd lie to lower the price. If you hate infectors you'd lie just so less people have stalker infectors. If you'd hate for people to use synergies that work you'd lie to keep stalker infectors around. If you use stalker infectors you'd lie to get an edge. If you use other infectors you'd lie to keep an edge.

And anyone that knows the answer has motive to muddy the waters because they can take advantage of the knowledge until someone proves one way or the other. Like i'm doing. Right now.

Honestly i'd tell you one way or the other ordinarily, but this is a pics or **** sort of thing in the first place.

Edit: Trion seriously censored get the **** out? Wtf?

EVERTHiNG IS A LIE!

No difference with a stalker immunizer with 2 stalker mods. It should have 10% increased range but 48 homing range is still 48.

we all should be happy if it doesnt work...

"Range" in this case means Falloff-Damage (Like a Sustained Power Muzzle grants it).

The Stalker bonus lowers the amount of damage lost for longer bullet distances travelled.

Since Infectors don't suffer from falloff damage it's completely useless.

range can affect infectors but not the homing range they can be fired by just aiming and they will hit a non moving target 5-10m past there homing range only tried on the 40m one

so the range after homing could be less on the cankers.... and some of them the needles go to the moon after max homing range so aim at feet
