What’s the point of turbos past blue if there is a cap on ship speed

    I have a lvl 50 blue turbo with 3 purple turbo effect perks equipped. With this setup I can maximize the speed of any ship with their speed cap. If this is the case with blue turbos, why should anyone bother with epic or legendary turbos if blue already maximizes the speed of any ship? I have 6 lvl 1 epic turbos on standby, but I don’t want to expend resources to upgrading them only to find out that it will have the same effect as my current blue turbo.

    People mainly use them for the perk slots. If you have a high level turbo then you can replace some (or all) of the speed perks with hp and damage perks.

    The extra health perks are nigh meaningless imo, and recourses to get those extra slots are better spent elsewhere.

    That’s mostly true, however, towards the end of the game you have a lot of resources, and not much left to spend them on. I think you can add a little over 300hp which is worth having (even if it’s the last thing you do).

    I hear this. I’m a yellow boat lover. I’ve got a T4 epic turbo, two more epic turbos. But no incentive to upgrade to T5 because I’m topped out on speed for all ships. That’s a game balance fault imho. Acceleration would be nice. Or something.

    I use t5r as my main. Have 4 t1 to t2 epics, just keep them to load out multiple ships in HCTDM. Otherwise they are the last on my level up list

    Seems strange that there's no acceleration stat on boats.
