Undocumented changes - Machinery of Oppression / Into the Unjust: 6.0.3 - Wimping Edition
---
The " Machinery of Oppression / Into the Unjust: 6.0.3" (and perhaps earlier) update has at minimum these two (2) things that have been "wimped / nerfed" for us player.
And seemingly (according to my queries) no one has mentioned this in public:
- The icon for "SEAF Artillery" mission / standard issue stratagem is no longer displayed during the loadout selection.
Therefore, it is no longer possible to know beforehand whether or not the mission map has a SEAF Artillery.
This was a very useful information especially to those who wanted to avoid SEAF Artillery sites favoring other Optional / Tactical / Secondary Objectives
( E.G. "RaDAR / LiDAR Stations" ).
Relevant (outdated) wiki-articles:

- Hellpod-Stratagems no longer have innate resistance to Arc-damage.
Practically all Hellpod-Stratagems had the "Electrical Conduit" (95% Arc Damage Reduction) built-into them.
Now anything with less than 250 (Arc Thrower) / 600 (Tesla Tower) hit-points is destroyed with a single arc-zap (especially other Sentry-Stratagems).
The arcs still won't chain via Hellpod-Stratagems.
I've yet to test if Tesla Towers one-hit each other.
And also haven't yet tested if the "E/GL-21 Grenadier Battlement" breaks the line-of-sight -> if it is still safe to operate Grenadier Battlement while keeping a Tesla Tower in front / other side.

Bonus:
They stealthily wiped out all the (Zendesk) support tickets / "My requests"
( unless the communication was strictly kept within the "Discord" ).
Fortunately, I personally was lucky enough to get an email copy for pretty much all the things they (Arrowhead) have "acknowledged" but observably have not made any attempt to address them
( E.G. they're not in the "Known Issues"-list ).
