Just a quick note that this gun can one shot Harvester's Shield... So it can be useful in you're running with Autocannon or laser cannon, one shot the shield with Eruptor, then go all out with Support.
I actually do use it for squids but paired with the machinegun. I can long distance hit the ships once their shields are down and the harvesters as well because a solid first shot to the harvester can disable it's shield generating abilities. The overseers are generally dealt with using the machine gun. I didn't know the weapon switch trick though.
@@TroublesPNG I tried it now. Eruptor breaks harvester shields in 1 shot, It's also much more accurrate than crossbow. Also much more AOE but that's not precisely better or worse. But yes, it is a bad crossbow. Crossbow is freaking OP and should be fixed (or all other weapons buffed).
Range. Sit a comfortable distance away and pop ship bubbles with your Stalwart, then blow up ship with Eruptor. Also takes out Harvesters shooting the leg joints in a pinch. Crossbow just doesn't have the range to relate.
I have had better luck with shooting the floor underneath the overseers vs shooting them directly, but then comes the fun of if the angle is too shallow it just bounces and pisses off somewhere else. I do love using the Eruptor as a spawn buster, wonderful weapon for that thanks to the range! It's a bootlegged autocannon, no real other way to describe it. Just without the need for the bag or support slot meaning you can take a jetpack, shield, etc while still using a no bag support weapon.
Eruptor + Stalwart is getting a Renaissance with the Illuminate
No matter what devs or glazers say - old shrapnel was THE best thing about this gun.
Now it's a gimmick weapon.
my favorite bug clearer. Plus, if you've played titanfall and you're a kraber enjoyer, you'll feel right at home with it.

What advantages does it has vs the crossbow?
None, the crossbow is an objectively better weapon in every capacity. Mainly because the crossbow is overpowered
