The explosives has been very well balanced… To not do any damage whatsoever. Usually it takes only 1 landmine to kill a Harvester (BLACK). This morning it took me 2 landmines, a couple of rockets and 4 grenades. I will post a link for the video when it gets to my DVR.
EDIT. The last Harvester I encountered was of PROTOTYPE class

Explosive weapons need to do way more damage, even more so than before the May update. Tried killing an FNIX tank and it to me more than 8 (yes you read that correctly) more than 8 missiles plus shotgun fire to kill it. We need a hero…Badly.

Yep, it’s been acknowledged by the devs. They even noticed it themselves during the livestream yesterday, so you can bet it’s being worked on

2 grantgevär direkt hits didn’t take down a military class hunter today.

Yes, the explosive system has been completely screwed.

Even before rockets didn’t do as much damage.

Yeah, it’s messed up. You waste like 5-6 rockets to down a hunter. Then get 1 rocket and 15 AK4 bullets when you loot. Tanks and Harvesters isn’t even worth try killing

They really… REALLY need to improve the damage of rockets and other explosives.

100% agreed. I don’t know if nerfing explosives THAT much was intended, but regardless, it needs to be changed again. Thanks for the feedback!

Fart’s 
good discription , just before me ps4 bugged out i was trying to blow a tank up with my gas tank’s . And i missed the sound the explosion everything ’ , FART best describes this adjustment , although i was thinking more ‘’ S B D ‘’ minus the ‘’ D ‘’ 
Your always welcome for good feedback. I love this game so much. 
Haha I was just in a Game and had to use 8 Propane/Red Tanks, one large Fuel Cell, 4 Mines and 4 clips of AH47 to kill one Green Harvester. So resources empty I find out the broke Loot containers and toolboxes have nothing in them and ammo boxes don’t fill back up when I relog and become unsearchable again even though I didnt take anything from them before the relog lol

That’s insane!
Watch the video I posted. That’s me, struggling with a Prototype Harvester
This patch is like, the revenge of the Machines. For all the times I’ve been cocky and blown them up, now I have to eat those words and actually run away from certain fights. I deleted my new save and rolled a new character and… Let’s just say, I’ve not left the starter island yet.

It took me 12 rockets (yep, 12, I have the video) plus 2 grenades to take out a harvester. There was also a nearby car explosion, when it was standing close, and two landmines though I messed up the placement on those, but it was nearby as well. Got two grenades and an air tank for loot from it, gee thanks.

We’re currently talking to the devs both about making Rockets stronger and Loot pools for Tanks/Harvesters better Right now, a FNIX Tank takes 34 Rockets to take down.

Yea I just did away with my rocket launcher altogether, put it on another character to add more inventory for my main. They’re useless so why carry it around and the 16 rockets I had.

They are useful for eliminating large groups of Runners. Plop a lure down and wait until they’re in a nice, big pile… Then go to town
