Nerf *superawesome* frost torps

Note zeus comments on frost items from a thread back in August. The latest changes seem to have brought the combo back to this state. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if a rebalancing occurs the only question is when.

 

I don't mind big torp damage or radius because it's a BIG FLIPPIN TORP. I have problem with frost. Once you're frosted you're dead. Torp or not, you get hit by everything and in unbalanced BS matches of ace league, it only takes two 2500+ ex cannon shots from nightmare clubbers to sink your mk5.

 

Funny to read this from you though - when you're a coward yourself using your frost blaster then your napalm without taking much risk (due to the fact that u doing it from far away)

 

You girl have a wrong point. How many speeders with napalm you see in the bay? Yes. That's why I am complaining about the frost torp combo. And I can dodge most of the torps with the nitro, but it's frustrating to see all my team vanished by then and I can do nothing by myself because my super napalm-cannon-frost combo is pathetic.

BTW, I can play long range and close range, always trying to follow the team. You always play alone (or with another speeder) hunting, stunning, frosting and one-shooting one by one the enemy team. That's "OK". Well, it's not OK.
But the problem is when the a weapon become a ultra popular weapon, or combo.

Torps needs a nerf, frost needs a nerf, frost-torp combo needs a nerf. Bye.

 

You little boy, your whole team can be destroyed with 2 strong defenders. See BenjeN & Oberst, Bunta & Elitist. They destroyed my teammates in les than 2 mins (several times). Did I complain? Did players complain about their OP fleets?

If you're not OK, don't play on a P2W game. Players who spend will always have an advantage over F2P players.

 

Wow. You really don't understand. Never mind. Have a nice day.

 

What do you mean? Take away all frost buffs?
If this, why?? That will utterly destroy the whole combo. No one will ever use frosttorp again
If not, just ignore the above

 

Lol this is exactly what a frosttorp speeder should be doing

 

Not all of them, but if they are going to nerf frost torp that would be an easy way of doing it. Just remove a few dmg increases on frozen targets. And maybe a slight Nerf on the slowing power of frost

 

Wow, the leave my frost torps alone gang sure are getting worked up
The nerf is inevitable at this point, and it's likely to be a big one.. Just have fun exploiting the combo while it lasts.

 

I actually don't use frost items lol. The only thing I'm defending is my beautiful big torp
(And sharing my honest non bias opions)

 

Yes I agree nerf is coming. But it should only be about frost because that’s the only op thing about it now. If you would be able to move even under a t5 epic frost, dodgind the torp would be possible.

 

Agree. The frost dmg bonus is the problem. And the big torp is a little bit OP too, jaaa! The frost should protect the ship. Yep, that would be great.

 

balanced match

 

Flare gun + canon combo does good amount of dmg but the fg requires 20- 22 sec for all the dmg to occur during that time the player doing that combo is vulnerable to the attacks of the other player and the player in those 20-22 sec can heal up too with usage of bandage or help if healer but with frost torp you don't get a chance to any of the above things.
Just nerf its speed decreasing ability and provide resistance for a little time like we get against tesla bolt.
Just a little time 5-6 sec.
If these pts were covered ignore this post because the thread is too long and I can't read every pt

 

Also one more pt nerf a big torp aoe radius by a little bit make it 3.2 or 3 because right now it's splash radius becomes too overpowered in certain maps like wayward pt.

 

Id be more worried about frost launcher and mortar combos....they cam tear a whole team apart from a safe place on the map. Frost blaster and big torp u goda be in the danger zone to maby land it

 

The big torp is not OP. The trade off is there. You use a weapon that is a slower moving projectile and longer cooldown in exchange for a big damage weapon. Frost will probably end up getting nerfed a bit. But there is nothing wrong with the big torp. About the only thing I would say about torps in general, is the splash radius is a bit much. You think you're pretty far away from that wall or friendly ship, but still take a lot of damage when that torpedo hits them.

 

Another change i would like is Frost effect Halved when Tesla shield is on /T shield completely broken without stun and frost effect, just like the Tesla bolt. The current frost torp makes tesla shield useless, since frost and torp aren't affected by shield at all. Both readily penitrate shield, leaving only the nitro (Among all yellows) as possible option to escape torp.

 

I'm gonna join the dark side and run around with my level 1 rare frostblaster which I think is good enough. How much time do you think I have?
