    Stun is the ONLY item used to protect speeder. Period.
    Try playing speeder with and THEN without, you'll see how quickly you'll die.
    Low health, NO defense points, slower because of the OB.

    As said before, stay in group instead of wandering around solo. And yet, top players can kill speeders. I guess YOU are doing something wrong.

    ENOUGH with the nerfing "this and that" !!

    Let's stop nerfing.

    Instead of "nerf firebomb or mine" how about "buff everything except firebomb and mine"?

    We all know big torp is WAY op. Were's the outrage? People in the Bay only find the weapons they don't use overpowered.
    I use a lot of stun. The Enforcer has 3 slots for 3 points. It also has less defense. I'm sorry if you find my stunning annoying when it's keeping your defender from from beating me down mercilessly with it's high hitpoints and defense, or your shooter from unleashing 5 weapons, 3 of which are 2 point, on me.

    Actually, big torp is OP because of how slow it is.
    Since a lot of players see it coming from far away, you get a lot of missed shots.

    But i completely agree with your statement.

    Big torp is not op. It's slow and you can easily get out of the way if you are aware of your opponents. The splash damage is huge but nerfing it would render it useless.

    Back to the topic, Tesla bolt is not op and 1 v 1 it's the only defence a speeder has against other ships which has at least twice the hp. shooters should really learn to play as a team and also how to lead shots. Its not that difficult to kill a speeder unless you are mindless mortar spammer. I have seen some shooters who lead and place their mortar shots to perfection and kill a speeder with mortars but that requires a lot of skill.

    Well like I said you do require skill. Ob and nitro do have cooldowns so you have to time your shots to perfection. The best mortar for dealing with speeders is ball park I feel

    I agree, let's nerf stun to last for 3 seconds max, I'm that case why should overboost last for 6 seconds? Let's make it also 3 seconds.

    Yeah lets nerf their hp to 300 so it will be easy to kill them. How these people think I don't know 5 weapons vs 2 weapons still they complain, 2500 or so hp vs 4000/5000 hp and still they want more.

    Lol speeder is already nerfed, on the other hand there's stun immunity, shooters and defenders got way more firepower and hp than speeders and now there is only a little difference in speed and you still complain about it being unfair.....you gotta be kidding me.....if stun is being nerfed, speeders will become a joke

    When the devs read this, think it's a great ideas and do it, I'm coming for you. But not with a tesla bolt, it'll be useless.

    Personally, I think the speeder is a bit of a mess. It sacrifices a butt load of hp for speed, but speed alone is not an adequate defence, especially when everyone knows how to lead shots.

    If (for arguments sake) you take stun out of the equation, then I don't see why speeders should have fewer hp than shooters, in the first place. They already have way fewer guns, which is compensation enough.

    Speeder players wouldn't care about stun being nerfed, if they had a reasonable hope of surviving without it.

    As it stands, speeders appear to be balanced on a knife edge, with thier fate tied to the stun. Either stun is OP and speeders are OP, or stun is nerfed and speeders are useless. IMHO that's a design flaw, one item shouldn't tip the balance of the whole ship.

    Stun is supposed to give you some escape time or some time to get around the enemy in sticky situations, not to be spammed to the point where there is no way the stunned player can attack you. There will still be stun spamming going on but this helps a bit. If your stun does 10 seconds after the first stun it will still do 5 seconds which buys you some time, and actually adds some need of skill now, stun spam required no skill at all. I personally use tesla bolt and I find this a nice balance and a very needed one. Some other tesla bolt users will disagree :p
