    I don't care how bad carronade perk is. Any carronade event perk besides uncommon is better than regular rare perks. So I'm in.
    At least it's not as bad as healing perk which basically does nothing if you're not fixer or frost perk because...frost.

    Have any of the complainers about the Carronade perk tried using range perks on missiles? If you had then you would be alot more positive.

    Longer range makes it easier to hit with more projectiles at closer ranges.

    Its just a double range buff.Carro range got buffed (range) previous 2 update ago + This perk offering a good chuck of range.

    Also the fact that even 1 projectile hit of carronade reduces both turret agility and speed to maximum effect makes it totally worth it!

    I feel that ‘Chill’ Cannon, constitutes another huge Speeder nerf. As if it wasn’t hard enough to escape a beating, with literally every yellow item systematically nerfed, now you also get frozen on the spot for the next hit? While shooters get Frost Torp?

    What’s the point in being able to go fast, or block healing, when all the most popular meta items, completely nullify that advantage? And it just keeps getting worse.

    :mad:

    Just means speeders will have to be more cautious.
    I have plenty of times run into a full fleet of 5 ships and struggled to escape, being frozen will certainly lower the chances.
    Although I want the chill perk for my legendary standard cannon, and pair it with a torp for big damage :D

    [QUOTE="Carronade Perk seems really poor. Why would someone want to have more range in a Carro if at mid-range it only hits with 1 or 2 projectiles? It's actually the most useless leg perk so far. In comparison, Wildfire and Shock are even more OP.
    Freeze duration and Cannon freeze are just ok. Event perks are still appearing with huge quality differences between them :confused:
    [/QUOTE]

    I too am bumming on the carronade perk... range adds precious little juice.. at least I won’t have to stress about getting one. :)

    I don’t even know what that means anymore.

    I already seem to spend 80% of my game hiding behind a rock, waiting for cooldown. If I manage to tentatively land one shot with EC in the whole game, without being instantly destroyed, I consider it a good game.

    How can you be ‘more cautious’ and still be relevant to the game?

    I don’t want to be more cautious, I want to be less cautious! Why can’t Shooters be the ones who have to be ‘more cautious’ for a change?

    I hear you buddy, and you are 100% right, and this is main reason I switched to enfo.
    2 weapons and tesla bolt nerf just led to a string of bad games, where it wasnt fun any more.
    Switched to enfo, I now am more durable, I have 3 weapons, and can dance like a pro, and I dont even use the bubble yet.
    Speeder is probably weakest ship in the bay now, with shooters stunning and freezing, as well as carrying 3 times as many weapons with double the HP, its bad times for the small banana.

    Shooters do have to be cautious, their big mistakes are HUGE when it comes to positioning. Stuff like, "Oh I'm 6 units away from cover" goes from, "No problem, I'll just nitro to it", to "Ohshitohshitohshsitoshi-BOOM", VERY fast in a ship like shooter.

    Why do you hide anyway? You have yellows, with good CDs, go ahead, nitro, OB, kite, fight!

    I seriously don't care about sniping attacks, there's always a good chance they'll miss or not crit.

    As Shiro from Log Horizon said to Serara, "Don't think about what you cannot do, focus on what you can".

    I cannot dodge a sniper shot, I cannot predict which snipeshot will crit, I cannot out-dps the enemy healer, I cannot and SHOULD not hide while my items cool down unless it's all of my items that are cooling down.

    I CAN charge into the sniper shooter while weaving, slightly affecting his judgement. I CAN go YOLO and enjoy the feeling of helplessness in the enemy's eye when their shot doesn't crit. I CAN stack healblocks on the enemy fixer, with my flare, my stun or my frost. I CAN kite and distract while my weapons cool down, issuing taunts by nitroing in the faces of my enemies in the 2.5 seconds that they cannot hit me.

    Yeah, I can’t do any of that... What I can do, is YOLO into the enemy team, fire my one EC shot into a wave, instead of the Fixer, get hit by 5 Snipers during GCD, Nitro into a Big Torp, and then die quickly having done 0 damage.

    But teammates never seem to appreciate that for some reason. :rolleyes:

    Am I the only one looking towards the quickshot frost perk?
    Oh yeah, I forgot, frost is dead, and now it's even more dead because shooters can freeze people to without having to use a carro. How fair. Now we also have to make the bandage be able to put up a tesla shield, and shooter will be the most balanced ship in the game(meaning everything else will be shit, But shooters will still be "balanced" and statistics would state the same because now we will still have a bunch of stupid people trying to play it, because it's fricking OP).

    Fixers gonna cry as no stars awarded even at 35k heal with a defeat, while shooters get stars for their damage. Good luck.
