    The team has temporarily disabled chomper due to this exploit.  Description has been re-instated for those curious on what it was.

    Chomper is re-enabled and will slowly come back to public games.  Some existing lobbies that have not updated will still have Chomper disabled and it will slowly roll out.  The facebite upgrade has been temporarily disabled as it was found to still have issues with the exploit and will require a full patch to fix.

    The chomper can still appear to do the fast attacks, but it is only client-side - only you will attack faster while the rest of the server will see normal speed.  I would caution excessive use beyond verifying this is the case as we do not know if this desync will cause any errors.

    Ah, so that's what's happened to it! I've always used that upgrade but realized it was locked and unequipped. Thanks for the update!

    I really like this upgrade, I hope that it gets returned in the upcoming patch and all that. It does not benefit Chomper’s secondary weapon either, meaning you need to be up close to benefit with it.
