Repair guild quests are too easily finished

I think that only a dev could clarify it for us with one of those cool posts telling us the average damage by boat. Otherwise you and other players are going to tell us that average fixers can delivery as much damage as yellow boats, and we will tell you that you're far away from true

 

I’m not saying as much always. I’m saying that they can, and their good match damage-wise is as good as a shooter’s good match or yellow boat’s good match. They can, but usually won’t.

 

Well, more reasonably it'd be matched against the ratio of fixers to damage boats. Your idea would only make sense if half the boats in BB were fixers. I think I agree with @Scourge Argaen , they have already nerfed fixer quest contributions pretty heavily. I'd rather not see them nerfed more heavily. Something seems wrong in that corner of the quest world and I think Rovio might want to take a look at it. The fundamental problem is that quests are damage based but some boats have 5 gun tubes and others have 2. That makes it a ton easier to quest on a shooter than pretty much anything else.

 

I'd like to amplify on that a bit. I don't think it's easier just because there's 2.5x times the gun tubes. The speeder has it's own advantages which, in theory, should at least partially compensate for that. I think it's easier because on my M4 shooter with 4 tubes, swapping one of them out for the quest weapon didn't change the flavor of the boat. I could still captain it roughly as I had before and get the quest points. But on my 2 gun speeder changing one of them changes the play style entirely and the two must be matched. I can't just plop anything into one of the slots and rock and roll. So I find myself playing my speeder exclusively with the flare/blast combo whereas with my shooter I routinely swapped one slot for the weapon-du-jour.

 

My sniper cannon isn't a mortar but it contributes all the same and vice versa.

Ultimately, it is what it is. Our role is not to deal l33t damage but to fix and provide damage support where possible. Unfortunately the rivalry boards reflect this to an extreme, so much so that we can't make a tangible contribution and do lose our value. See below for my case point, this is the board my guild has at the moment. Don't know what anyone else thinks but I'm thinking something is missing here...

 

You're not the only one...



It would be nice if the devs could at least guarantee that "PROTECTOR" spawns on each board...

 

I agree and this would be a worthwhile start to help bring some balance for a fixer

 

Yes a guaranteed protector quest would be good. And maybe a higher chance of a fixer win quest.
