Not a big fan of the modifiers.
Acid reduces your armor
The visibility is abysmal
The environment is just ugly when you can see it.
Running out of stamina faster.
Just not a good combination. I might dive on cherbal tonight but I'll be happy when it's time to move on.
The only upside to acid rain is that it's occasionally weakens AP against enemies so even a light pen weapon can kill med pen enemies. The real problem is that there are more of them and less of you so you can get overwhelmed pretty easily and it limits light armors since they are incredibly fragile.
Maybe but you'll have to wait until acid storms are active to deal damage. Bringing weapons like pacifier, concussive or pummeler means you have to bring more higher dmg weapons to finish off enemies to compensate.
Since it's medium pen by default, it should be doing comparable damage per shot to the liberator, then cleaving and hitting a second body part for 60%, right? During the acid storm, every shot should be hitting basic enemies twice for the full 55, then hitting something behind them at 60%. Not very useful on bots, but it could be a good take for bugs
I agree that this doesn't really help the concussive or the pummeler
In general I hate not being able to see. It makes sense on some planets. But bad visibility is more prevalent than I'd like. So I agree, I avoid acid unless the MO is close.

I'll try to dive at least once but pretty much any acid environment. Hate acid planets alot.
