The BTSU perk

Charged Proxies: Whenever you throw a skill, 1.25s after landing, it creates an explosion applying the infused status effect to all enemies within 6m. Enemies affected by the infused status effect take 50% more damage from your skills.

As good as it looks, actually kills you!

When you are infused and go in cover, and when you double tap your Turret skill to put a turret on top of the cover, BOOOOOM! you are dead! the Charged Proxies perk from BTSU kills you!

Apparently the turret is considered as a thrown skill and this Charged proxies have killed me numerous times. In the beginning I was baffled on what killed me then I realized that it was the perk. OMFG...

I dont know if this was intended or not but I do hope the dev can remove self damage from that perk

I was about to ask if it was as impactful now as it was on the PTS - since this is the first I've heard of the self-damage issues since then.

Which is peculiar since there have been no major behavioral changes to the BTSU gloves in that time... I'll try to keep and eye on this topic moving forward.

Additionally, if anyone could provide a video of this happening, it would be extremely beneficial.
