Testing? - nop! Doesn’t hear anything about it.

So, in quick view, u don’t need to grade turbo for next level.
31 lvl with 4 perks give u max speed for all ships.
Do u have any reason to level up this item? - no.
Thx rovio for logic and smart balanced content.
Do u have some Qa in ur team?( how u can release this?(

 

Upgrading further will allow you to equip +60 HP perks instead of turbo perks and still keep max speed. You only need 1 turbo perk for level 50 epic turbo... so the 3 HP perks are pretty noticeable.

 

Uuuh, +60 HP! Well, a Drop in the ocean!
For me Balancing is gone with the last updates. I agree with @Earel

 

So you’re saying I can put an hp perk on my t5e now? Cause i wasted 50pearls before to put one on and take it back off because it wasn’t enough, really would like to know for sure before I do that trial and error again.

 

I can’t confirm completely, however this is my turbo currently, and I max out speed on all my boats.


And the worst part is I scrapped an epic HP perk a week before the update.....

 

Mine does 60.5% boost and maxes all ships except the shooter which is 0.03 off max.

 

so your defender is max but your shooter isn’t? How strange, defender was my issue before on not being maxed (even with full trainings before)

Edit: Ah yes I see now, both base is .92 and shooter max speed is higher(1.5), also it looks like interceptor takes a lot to have max speed

 

Yup, after the update this turbo now gives me max speed for all ships:



I believe before update I couldn't even add one HP perk without losing max speed.

 

Ohhh SSNNNNAAAAAAAAAAP

 

The rare t5 turbo with 1 vigor perk and 2 speed perk are enough....

 

That's nothing. My lvl 40 rare with one epic perk and two rares gives me maxed speed on everything but shooter(which is very close to max).

 

This turbo speed % (and anything higher) will give you max speed on all ships.

 

Thats enough too...

 

lol yes because it's a higher speed %, as I said.

 

Yes , but its mine is better , because it has lower gear score...

 

I'm saying you can put THREE hp perks on it

 

Yea when factoring gear score its an interesting comparison. But I would call mine "better" as it gives a couple hundred more HP.

 

This is enough to max defender, speeder, enforcer, and fixer. Shooter barely falls short with 1.48 of 1.50 max and intercepter with 1.60 of 1.62. Another rare perk puts them both way over.

I find this a very interesting move on the part of the developers. Is this a first step towards getting rid of turbos altogether? They got rid of rudders and gear lube, it seems, because they were dramatically underused, and they decided it made sense to simply mandate ship standards for agility since the pool of players was creating so little deviation from the norm anyway. I wonder if the opposite is true with turbos. Everyone—literally everyone, with the exception of some high-level enforcers—runs a turbo. And everyone not only runs one but runs a maxed-out one as soon as they can. So what’s the point in making everyone bother with them, I can see the thinking go.

If the opportunity existed for someone to devote unusual amounts of resources and training to achieve an unusual advantage in the speed of their ships, then that’s one thing. But that hasn’t really been the case before, and this recent update actually moves things in the opposite direction—it has further devalued high-level turbos. Tier IV and tier V epics are basically obsolete now. Jimbot says above that a level 40 rare turbo only needs one epic perk with a couple of rares to max out everything but shooter (and probably intercepter, too). And don’t tell me, with ship health points being where they are now, that a couple of 60-point health perks are supposed to be the incentive for someone to develop an epic turbo when they can hit max speed with a level 40 rare. So it makes me wonder if there’s another shoe left to drop.

 

Uh oh.....by internet standards, if BOTH shoes fall off, you’re dead.......
