Enforcers prevented from enforcing...

    Battle Bay dev dudes,

    I'd like to bring this for you to consider see or at least explain better for us to understand the reason...

    The enforcer (mk6 and even mk7) has only 3 slots for weapons, as a result the usage of the under used frost launcher is not possible at the higher levels anymore (even when I'm using a legendary one) as the extra slowed enemy damage combines with ballpark is useless damage wise comparing the the same boring fire damage alternative...

    If you can consider allow on the 3 weapons option a 4 slots in total that will allow at least on Berta to be used, it would make much more sense to enjoy the large variety of weapons you created for enforcers as well who wish to use frost tactics that currently extremely weak comparing to burning ones and even more when enemy is much faster even when frozen on these high levels.

    And one more question, does frost also slow the targeted ship reloading time or just it's movement?

    Thanks in advance:)

    Frost effect only slows the movement speed of the boat.

    I'm not a dev, but here goes some of my opinions...
    You can use frost launcher to slow ships, making it easier for non-mortar weapons to hit...
    @Charlotte Douche uses Big Berta anyway...

    You can use std, long range and ballpark in enfo ( they all are 1 slot mortars). Then you can also use many different fire combos, and mine. If enfo got 4th weapon slot, it would mean:
    Big berta+long range+ frost
    Flare+bc+explosive cannon!!!! ( I really don’t want to see this on enfo)
    Missiles
    Fire bombs and railguns (with enfos turret aiming would be really easy)
    So in my opinion, enforcer doesn’t need a 4th slot and it would be op

    Agreed. Mostly. I would totally rock dual explosive cannons with 4 slots. :cool:

    Enforcer isn't the type of ship to get close enough to enemies to use explosive cannon as effectively as a speeder or defender would. A 4th red slot would add some variety and give enforcer a bit more use as right now it's the weakest ship in the game. Would by no means make it OP at all

    Explosive cannon has more range than blast cannon, which is used on the Enforcer rather effectively

    More range, but less projectile speed which makes it in accurate from far distance

    Harder to hit though, you usually have to get closer to an enemy with an explosive cannon than you do with a blast cannon.

    Anyways, 1 explosive cannon on enforcer won't make it overpowered

    I currently use the blast cannon and explosive cannon or flare gun and explosive cannon combo...personally I think it's extremely effective against speeders especially when they turn their back on me to run away. I would love to use this combo in higher tiered MKs but I'll probably give it up for three one pointers down the road (sighs).
    I do understand your pain though when it's a mortar fest it does become difficult to get close enough at times I guess that is when the mortar comes in handy. (PS. there are perks for range :) )
    I like the frost blaster more than the launcher at least at this point. (If the Devs would allow room the for explosive cannon I wouldn't complain) :)
