Yeah. Of the 85 or so Physical weapons, only the (Primal)Rhino Ray, Trident Prongs, (P)Zebra Bite Laser, (P)Zebra Hooves Torpedo, Shaolin Kick/Strike Torpedo and the Hermes Cau Laser have no knockback. Might be one or two more, but thats all I know of.

10/85. Nearly 1/9.

Only the Prongs, the lasers, and the torps don't have knockback.

Prongs has knockback. It's negative, but it's there.

And I don't think you quite understand; giving a class that focuses on long range physical damage a physical weapon that gets stronger the further away the target is, is...not a good idea. Not good at all.

No tracking, no acceleration. Only abuseable against ubers. :p
Probably not a good idea, I guess, still like it...

Also, mining weapon wise, it has twice the dps of the best mining weapon. With 5 times the dpe. I mean, it does sort of balance out missile spam, but honestly, all gunners shouldn't be using the same weapon.

I blueprint to make a mining version however, I'm fine with.

Post Re: Change blackhole gens to mining damage
The black hole gens are an oddity, and have never worked (unlike Juxes).

I'd like to get both classes working again, but it's not high on priorities at the moment. Remind me post-gunner testing.

Hmmm what about giving blackhole gens a futhernance effect? They would simply grow up to dread size and damage everything they pass throu.
How does that sound like?
