bones_was_hereYESProjectile interactions are cool but it's infuriating when you only have one shot and it gets messed up by spam and bad luck.

k9erYESHaving your own rockets be deflected and miss their target by an explosion was always more annoying than it was rewarding when you deflected one yourself. This behavior had always felt random, so I think removing it is the right move. Unfortunately in this sense this is a "buff" to the Devastator, but not very notable. Also allowing the Blaster to hit projectiles helps make it more useful.

Spike29YESAlthough this is an edge case, it's always good to have a less seemingly random & more predictable projectile behaviour.
