Proposal!

Here's my proposal.

Make every cannon deal Less than 2k damage. Maybe t5 legendary would do more than 2k. But rest t5 epics shouldn't be able to do 2k damage. That is just insane.

The reason is, u get killed in 3 epic t5 ex cannon hits . It's easy to hit, because it's a cannon and it does 2.3k dmg on fire. That is just wrong. I don't mind wrecked by a torp because it's a little difficult to hit. But from a cannon it's just insane.

Scale the cannons in such a way that, the epic lvl 50 ex cannon shouldn't be able to do more than 1.8k damage with fire , same with blast and sniper.

Or, increase the ships HP. I really don't wanna be killed in 3 hits. Even a noob can kill anyone with a strong cannons.

Give us more time to survive. Please.

Thank you

 

No.
First of all, are you suggesting another defender nerf? Cannons are literally the only decent weapon defenders have. Not to mention that mortars and torps will become more popular, which is another indirect nerf towards defenders, since they can't dodge easily.
Second of all, There is a reason cannon deal that much damage. With cannons, you have to be in the line of fire of your enemies. Mortars, you can shoot over rocks. Torpedoes, sure they're hard to aim, but they make up for it with immense damage. If you decrease cannon damage, the risk that it takes to expose yourself isn't going to make up for damage. People are just gonna spam mortars from behind rocks and walls and shoot torpedoes from afar. Also, they have cool down. And the cannons that deal lots of damage like ex and blast have slow projectiles, so you have to lead your shots.

 

But u think it is fine for anyone to kill you with 3 shots. ?
If u think decreasing damage from cannons will make defender weak, then I would suggest to decrease the damage of all the weapons in the game by 30-40%. Or increase the health by that much.

 

There is a serious imbalance in this game with the health and the damage the weapons does. It needs to be balanced fast.

 

What i have observed..Higher level you go, better weapons their will be , hence making it more of a strategy game then brawl. If are getting hit by ex. Canon 3 times means, you misplayed somewhat.

 

Cannon class raw damage is ok; its the BC/EC + fire bonus damage that needs some tweaking.

 

Few months ago fire burst damage was 10% per day talant) moreover cd ex was 11sec. So, ships like mk6 fixer with 6k hp die from combo - flame + ex + ex = dead. Repeat after 1 sec. for another target

 

Fire Dmg is the only reason people use flare. Otherwise who will choose overtime dmg over Burst Dmg.

 

1. To earn more stars (fire bomb is op too)
2. To penetrate the tesla shields of double bubble enfos

What the cannon + fire combo needs is a little nerf to keep it in check; not some mega nerf to cripple it like what happened to frost. Maybe nerf the damage to burning targets perk a bit?

 

You earn more stars because of the burn damage combo, since with it, you can help other people get more damage. Without the burn damage, it's not going to give extra stars.
