Lots of things I love about the October update but was expecting more of a buff for Rose. I don't understand how Kernel Corn could be buffed but not Rose for example. I'm glad he was buffed but was already way stronger than Rose imo.
I find Rose practically useless, so never play her which is a shame as I love her character design.
Anybody get success with Rose, is it just me?

Agreed, I was playing a lot of the rando playlist and noticed how her shots never seemed to never land and thought the exact same thing..

Rose indeed feels like she's just not working very well. The homing doesn't seem to work very well, or maybe it's her projectile speed or something.
She needs some love for her attacks, her utility is handy, but she's lacking in offense despite a decent amount of damage per shot.

I think Rose and Flower got the worst of the new shooter.
I can’t stand Chomper’s new role but at least he’s still manageable.
Once you upgrade the beam, Flower is playable but Rose is pretty bad altogether.
I wish a Rose main would chime in with a tutorial, if they’ve had much luck in PvP (outside of TT, especially).

She needs cosmetic surgery too! WTH happened to her face? She sure fell out the ugly tree in this game!

I'm honestly surprised that this hasn't been brought up more. Soldier and Corn really needed their buffs but Rose feels worse than they were pre-buff, I notice this more and more as I work on leveling her.
There's a live stream today so I hope this is addressed then, if not the stream, then hopefully very soon.

@ToastedSarnie Sunflower at least has a large ammo clip and apparently got a hidden buff in the patch? People were posting she got an increase in top damage from 5 to 6. I've had a lot more luck with her than with Rose, that's for sure. Not saying she's fine, just more playable right now. Plus between self healing and the sun beam, she's not really bad and teammates love to be near healers so she gets more backup than Rose does.
Engineer is definitely in a better place than Rose. His turret can help even when it's not in the enemy's LoS as the aura can buff teammates, his attack is very solid and can bounce around, and the stun can last for a very long time. His only real downside is that his speed pad isn't a huge help in many situations.
I didn't play Rose all that much in GW2 unless we had that epic quest to get a 10 streak vanquish as getting 20+ streaks with her in TT was pretty easy. I also notice that I can have the reticle dead center on a zombie and still miss with her in BfN. That gets frustrating quickly.
