Changelings, and why they're just too damn powerful

[Paineframe]

I unloaded an entire clip of a laser gun (I found a laser gun in space when doing some scavenging) and unloaded an entire clip of an egun, into a changling.
He went abomination after the first clip, he was extremely burnt so it SHOULDN'T of taken it much to finish it off, but a second clip of later, it remained standing.
Holy shit like.

Aren't shamblers super resistant to laser shots, as well as every other damage type that isn't a welder? Or was it that they had super regeneration that you had to hit them with a welder to disable? Either way, every time I've ever seen the call of "SHAMBLER" go out over the radio, the ling drowned in a welder-wielding gray tide in maybe a minute, so maybe you're seriously just doing it wrong by arming yourself to the teeth with guns when I vaguely recall lings being super resistant to gunfire if not softened up with a welder first.
