    I see it in the current version as a much worse choice than the pulse at all stages no matter what.
    If you would change it to 1 spot it would be a decent option over heal-boxes due to removal of freeze/stun (with correct crew training) if you care to focus on that.

    Developers claimed they were open to changes regarding it and I hope @Zeus and the others consider this if enough people vote for it

    im with the "one slot for repair bolt" faction. as it is, the healing bolt does not deserve the two precious slots it will take up. it is a waste of space. it has terrible cooldown , it just heals slightly better than the repair box, you have to aim well and there is a chance to miss because you aim at moving targers. its like a rubber bill on a woodpecker.

    if it takes up just one slot, i mifgt consider using it instead of the repair box but im pretty sure ill be using the repair box again after a short while.

    repair box and pulse was a no brain play (like full snipe)...
    repair bolt wipe stun and frost...and you want a one slot which destroy stun/ all frost? and a better heal??? what is this joke??
    it's just that 80% of fixer used heal for themself, now they need to change...
    i've discuss with some fixer, and all good fixer (it's mean heal other people) don't complain about this.
    honestly a fixer with bandage/repairbox/ductape/or pulse was too horrible to fight in 1VS1

    wiping stun and frost is not a given like how you make it out to be. thise are options at the crew upgrades. they are just OPTIONS, do you understand that they are not a GIVEN?

    There are 3-4 other threads on the same topic already!

    I think the mechanics of Repair Bolt are amazing - Ranged, stun+frost removal & instant healing is a great package.
    I do think that it needs a boost in healing output though, many ways to go about that, fx; going to 1p, healing for more, having a lower cooldown or perhaps if double-tapping it made it target yourself.

    As it is now Im afraid it wont see much use, but I can understand the devs being cautions with the initial stats (easier to buff items than to nerf).

    Aftee the nerf, whenever I play fixer I swap my repair box for a duct tape and keep my pulses, i can still heal my team, but I dont have to worry about the pitiful healing i het from my pulses

    the amount healed is actually pretty good. i went from 1/3 hp to almost full in one bolt hit.

    and the good thing is, you dont need to look around for boxes or your fixer at all. let him do the job and you can focus on battle! great item and a must have. not to mention stun/freeze removal.

    The one question you need to ask yourself is this: Would Pulse have been better or worse? :) Thats bolts main challenge.
