Plasma Pea still needs a nerf
Hurrdurr surprise. Plasma Peas splash is still ridiculous. ☕ Combine that with a strategy that involves camping on elevated positions, charge from behind cover, pop out for a quick shot only to disa...

Isn't what all splash peas are supposed to do?
Fight from elevated positions to utilize splash damage where they are most effective? Its doing what it was designed to do. Is there something the plasma pea is doing besides what all splash peas are designed to do that constitutes a nerf?
Like some others I typically was not one to immediately call for buffs or nerfs when I encountered a character who seemed to be difficult to play or difficult to handle on the opposite team; I instead worked to adapt my tactics and play style to either get the most of of the character I was playing or to figure out the best character or tactic to neutralize whatever I was going up against.
Personally I've always found Plasma Pea formidable due to the DPS but not impossible to counter once I understand how the player using it has decided to play.
It's a game with asymmetrical teams so with certain 1v1 matchups one character on one side or the other can have a clear advantage or disadvantage and depending on the makeup of your team v the other team and what tactics each team employ determine the course of the battle.
In my experience a lot of players rely primarily upon the "Charge Ahead, Guns Blazing, Spam Abilities" approach to the game and many time the player with more thoughtful tactics will knock down such careless gameplay- especially if the player also has a higher level of skill and experience.
I think depends on how good is the player is. Under good player, all character he's playing, you might think the character needs a nerf. It's actually the player needs a nerf 🙂
I'm good with meele attack but suck with shooting with precision. So I try out plasma pea and just doing so so and count most of my kill based on the explosion and not really having fun with it.
Then my daughter laugh seeing I'm struggling so she take over in the middle of the game, and she kills so many zombies left and right without even using the plasma explosion but straight to hit the zombie in the head and get vanquish streak 20-25. Wauww, I really need to learn how she can be so good in precision shooting.
My daughter needs a nerf, not the plasma pea 🙂
Well, this is the main reason I don't join in these discussions, there are always experienced players who make me realize I don't know what I'm talking about.
What about the charged shots only taking one ammo, though? That just doesn't seem right.
