    Why do people play speeder? Because speeder can do stuff shooter cannot, triple tape build copies speeder attribute and combine with defender attribute. You are a very stubborn person, you do not believe that triple tape can do JUST as much dmg as speeder or TANK just as well as defender. It is a HYBRID. Why can you not think of triple tape as another ship? That way if you win the match you can say "Good day job Speeder, Defender"! You are so stubborn it pains me.

    It's just my own perspective.
    I don't want to stretch this topic anymore so I'm getting away from it.
    Play as u people want either way I won't be playing this game forever.
    Just enjoy the play.
    Peace

    The day my infamy is high enough to fleet with you, I'm moving around with you as if we were a speeder duo and you'll be my speedy defender :D
    Opened my eyes to the selfish fixer concept!

    Better yet, we should be able to highlight one of our items so at the beginning of the match our teammates can see what our favorite item is. That way selfish fixers can show off their best duct tape, but it'd also let everyone on your team have a general idea of your playstyle.

    Lol after being a selfish fixer, I agree with u. I somehow am doing better as a mk4 fixer with an uncommon level 20 and rare level 10 tape than with my speeder which is at mk5. My damage as fixer fluctuates from like 0-10000 as my carronade only works when I can islolate the enemy fixers, speeders and enforcers.

    Did you get those legendaries from buying or for free? I want a legendary too but I only have like 4 pieces :(
    If you got it for free, how long did it take? Thanks :D

    I paid a decent amount of money and bought alot of the deals when they were being offered back in global launch as well as the recent Christmas ones. If I were to divide up all the Legendaries I've gotten by the amount of money I spent it would amount to around 125$ USD per Legendary. Of course some of the Leg parts came from playing normally. If I never paid any money then I would expect that from when I started last may until now to have only 1 Legendary. So around 10 months of playing to get 1 Legendary for free.

    I sometime heal and sometime I'm Selfish.

    If you dont want me to be Selfish, easy; PROTECT UR FIXER AND RELOCATE WHEN U ARE BEING SPAMMED MORE THAN 10 TIME.

    Good Day.

    There's two issues people seem to have with "Selfish Fixers" but only one is solvable externally.

    1. Identifying a Selfish Fixer early
    With the growing spread of the Duct Side of the Force, memorizing names might not be enough much longer. If there was a crystal-clear way to tell that your Fixer is packing rolls of Tape instead of Pulses, this issue would go away. @PastelPiku mentioned an option to "highlight your favorite item" which would do it nicely, but it needs to be something like that rather than just the Fixer remembering to spam "Help! Negative!" at the start of the match.

    2. Ineffective Selfish Fixers
    It doesn't help your team if you're the last one alive, but can't finish the job. Fixers below Mk6 had better be packing a high-level Epic or Legendary weapon, otherwise they typically won't be able to deliver enough damage to make themselves viable. Once you hit Mk6, the second weapon slot gives you the ability to lay down more fire, whether that's a pair of Sniper Cannons or the traditional Flare/Blast close-range combo.

    The first issue can be solved by coding. The second one cannot.

    TL;DR - "Please Duct Responsibly."

    Fully agree. I've seen one mk5 fixer do it right in person. Otherwise, I highly recommend waiting until mk6 to try the selfish build.

    The second thing, however, could be applied to any build. While each and every build could serve useful purpose, you're bound to encounter someone who simply does not "do it right".

    I suppose I understand the concept. I play fixer most of all my boats. I have seen fixers with only duct tape loaded that do not warn in the beginning of play - in fact, I didn't know that was a thing. The issue I have is not being a hybrid, but being a recognizable boat that does not do the work and leaves the work undone.
