    By the time it comes down to 1vs1 sure -- But anything above 8 seconds would result in the same dance as now. Aslong as the game is 5vs5 its not a big deal, more often than not you can find something to hit you and clear the stun (and expect alot of mk6 Fixers to bring a stun clearing Repair Bolt now).
    Perhaps Tesla Bolt will get a small hit eventually -- But the amount of players with 16second stuns can probably be counted with a finger or 2. Orpheus and ?

    Repeating the 16seconds is like me when I whine about speeder HP using Fix in his 11k hp speeeder as an example :)

    Yeah
    i agree about the sniper two slot idea as bad but 'your suggestion sounds like a personal opinion' is not a rhetorical question in any universe.

    Not a T5 Epic Explosive cannon, flare gun or others.
    Go to Nightmare league and see the firepower output.
    It's not 1000 in damages but much much more.
    My speeder now will be around 5000 health so a 2/3 shots and i'm done.

    Already deleted the game. Fuck them.

    You can spend time too. Either way, changing boats and load outs is a joke in the game.

    With how low our HP at MK4, every point counts. Especially since they nerfed Overboost.

    @Johnnieday not feeling sorry for anybody with 5000hp while I limp about in a 2900hp enforcer:)
    Hopefully the devs will reconsider the mk4 speeder nerf though, it really is too much.

    I'm glad to see sone constuction! But still, the speeder is the dedinition of a glass cannon, you sneak in, do damage, and gtfo. This is the devs trying to reinforce that, is it 100% effective? Far from it but atleast they are trying

    I don't think you know what it means for the Fixer. Staying alive is just as important for Team Play. A dead fixer is a useless fixer.

    You're right, it isn't. But you're choosing to interpret my post the way you want to and i can't help that. His opinion on the matter is bad for many reasons.

    A fixer that barely heals is a liability and another class would be preferable in that slot.

    Duct Tape has no place for an MK1-MK3, so those are putting that on a Fixer at that low level, have no idea how to play the game. Healing Pulse or Repair Boxes is still the go, but the duct tape is now a viable support item for Fixer to help him stay alive on high level games where they become the main target.

    "There has to be a tradeoff when it comes to speed and hitpoints"
    what about all the speed nerfs speeder has undergone? esp recent OB nerf? maybe you should increase hitpoints to balance out all the speed nerfs? Furthermore, why would you nerf any ships hit points when weapons are becoming more powerful, i.e. with legendary noobs moving up in rank, ship hitpoints should be increased to balance the inundation of legendary weapons.

    challenge for devs: update game without nerfing anything...

    That's already difficult to the with the current state of Overboost. 4second window of no speed advantage and even Tesla Shield can't save you.

    Oh well, at least there will be less Speeder chasing me. Just have to adjust with the changes. Sigh.
