3 Why did Constable need a gun to kill fleas? Because there is no other JJ unit capable of doing this job. Pyro is too heavy and also a riot raider. Puppy is suicide anti-raider that loses 2.5x value when killing a Flea. 3 Why did Constable need a gun to kill fleas? Because there is no other JJ unit capable of doing this job.

Because all their units have to have a riot sidearm, and good raiders with good riot weapons would be obnoxious. 5 Why does JJ have no units capable of killing Flea?

9 Splitting the Pyro into a lower-weight jumpbandit and a proper jumpriot (say, an arc flamer, maybe with funny damaging effects on jump, like a blazetrail) would fix the flea problem while not requiring Constable to be able to fight raiders efficiently. 9 Splitting the Pyro into a lower-weight jumpbandit and a proper jumpriot (say, an arc flamer, maybe with funny damaging effects on jump, like a blazetrail) would fix the flea problem while not requiring Constable to be able to fight raiders efficiently.

11 Of course, that still does nothing about it having massive effects against heavy raiders. In that @izirayd video, Constables aren't the damage dealers, they just slow things. In other battles you can see it trivially outrange and more or less counter things like Reaver. 11 Of course, that still does nothing about it having massive effects against heavy raiders.

13 If their weapon is intended for self-defense, then perhaps it should just have lower range. 13 If their weapon is intended for self-defense, then perhaps it should just have lower range.
