I don't think it's a bug. On gold difficulty, you need to strip shields/barriers of enemies before you can damage their health. So, even if a centurion has a single bar of health and shield, you'll need two shots to bring it down.

As for the point of using the Widow then, you can down an Atlas quicker with it.

Whether this is a mechanic or a bug, this just reinforces that there is diminishing returns for the Widow, and thus you should use a heavy pistol like the Carnifex.

It is a bug with sniper rifles. Leeroi tried claymore with cloak and it worked as expected http://social.biowar...47/index/935907

And I DO use heavy pistol + widow. But as I described above mantis do the same. What is the point of super widow then.

Cloak works on gold.

Enemies aren't tougher, per se; but I have noticed a bit of a variation on damage. On my run-through on gold as an infiltrator, my sniper rifle would one-shot some enemies and on others would do significant damage, on the same enemy types.

But if you're an infiltrator, cloak/Heavy melee should be the order of the day, if you picked all the melee perks. One-shot a phantom FTW.


Range plays a big factor in damage you do.

Hey folks,

This is working as intended. On Gold difficulty, enemies resistances must be completely destroyed before they can begin taking health damage. Look out for tactics like using damage over time effects such as incinerate or warp to prevent them from regenerating any defenses while you set up your next shot. Close range shotguns can also be effective, as any pellets above the ones needed to break defenses will go to health.

Good hunting!

But then what is a point of widow, which basically should obliterate almost everything, because mantis do almost the same. But i liked your point about shields :) but widow is anti tank rifle, so shields will work the same as bulletproof vest against rocket launcher :devil:however i still think that this is a bug.

  The widow has nice penetration allowing you to shoot through walls.

This behavior is by design. Shields and Barriers protect enemies from big, single shot weapons. The amount of protection differs on each difficulty level, but on Gold weapon damage doesn't pass through the shield/barrier gate, so you can't one shot them. On Silver, 25% of the damage passes through the gate, and on Bronze it's 50%.
