    Ok. I thought the best was sniper cos a lot of players were asking to nerf it due to it's minimal drawbacks.

    And since you are feeling good about EC nerf, well every ship will have one blast cannon now. Better projectile speed and easier to connect than EC. Add fire perks and you have another best weapon for the fire combo. And to top it off, it's a one slot weapon with lower cooldown so there isn't much trouble replacing a 2 slot EC.

    Rovio has given me a very special gift: they have obliterated my "go to" set up (flare+ec & Tesla bolt) and at the same time have cut me off from the game as I cannot update it on my iPad and cannot play. The gift: piece of mind since I already struggle to maintain my infamy. No play = no frustration. They did nothing to mines or torpedoes which can do 2k+ damage without any contact. I guess they only listen to their favored players. From 13 seconds to 20 for Tesla? How about frosts that last forever?

    Wow, that's a great point. I didn't have offer but I'd be really upset if I spent that kind of money & then got nerfed.

    Yep it would be good to get some legendaries as F2P. No yellows though. Don't know why?

    Damn. Wayward Pains was a board I like because it limited mortar usage.

    And a 7 second(!) Nerf on the bolt?!

    Go to the update tab for all apps that can be updated in the app store and pull down on the page until the spinning wheel pops up. The new update should pop up on the top of your app update list.

    next: how about fixing the constant "new message" markers on guild chat, when there are no new messages... or is that related to the issue you just fixed?

    Double Tesla bolts will do the trick. Still need to try it out though. They should have removed the stun resistance or adjusted it to balance out the nerf.

    I can see double Tesla bolts working very well on speeders who focus on targets not being shot at. This will create a new meta of people who are more conscious of the battlefield and make players smarter! Very nice!

    Every nerf will make someone mad. I think they got TB right. People were quitting because of the frustration. I actually think it will still be used almost as much as before. The actual stun times are quite high still but we'll see how it plays out.

    EC: yes it needed a Nerf. I'm not sure this is the best way. It's the critical hit that's moronic. I don't use it but to me, I'd like to see a huge reduction in critical hit damage. A significant increase in regular damage would be fine if the critical hit was nerfed. They could have left cool down alone. That plan would make EC reasonable but still the most powerful cannon.... which it should be at 2 slots.

    DEVS: PLEASE LET US KNOW ABOUT THE VERTICAL AIM LEADING. I hope they didn't make cannon or mortar shooting easier. Horizontal and vertical leading is the part that rewards skill.

    Great update Rovio!

    We need yellow item quests and guild quests!
    Also blue item quests - can just be tied with dominator (win x battles with small shield/turbo/bandage/rudder equipped..)

    Also please INCREASE sugar cap!
