Scuttle and broadside can make you kiss your shield goodbye. Now that card to gone, it actually didn't do any better.

Remember there were loadout card, which let harpoon to deal 325% more dmg to shield, i member. Such irony, thinking of getting rid of burst meta, instead made a burst meta monster. Screw cauterize or wrecker, give him deft hand, he can burst down a tank in seconds, even if the tank have 2 healers by his side. The developers want to get rid of burst meta, but Dredge.

Your flanking route is best to be forgotten because there is no way you can get throught it without reveal or getting face full of broadside. But why is Dredge most despicable than other revealing hero, the reason is that he can spam, you can destroy a Vivian sensor drone and Strix only have 1 flare at a time, but broadsides, it can cover everywhere, with no way to destroy it and it can destroy you.

Imagine this, a Dredge have a magazine of 9 grenades, that means 3 broadside spams, 1 broadside spam is continuous, he can spread 3 broadside from left flank to mid,and another 3 from mid to right flank. Invisibility hero except Seris, is basically vulnerable to Dredge broadside. He got a loadout card, if max out, can reveal 50ft from broadside projectiles. Invisibility is basically useless against Dredge.Think about the tanks at point, think about the support who is trying to run away from the flankers, then having all the exits close off by broadside and scuttle. A Lvl 0 dredge can already access the legendary card, scuttle. Broadside, broadside, broadside, scuttle. Give a normal player a Dredge, he can still cause some trouble situation on the objective point.

Paladins is dredge good
