DevReply Why is the sniper cannon balanced?!?

I used to shoot Tesla Bolt to areas I think unfriends are passing by at the beginning of every game (before the Bolt CD nerf) and once in a while i fired my sniper when I was still a sniper user and hit someone before. But that doesn’t make sniper OP.

Edit: the chance of being hit by a big torp/tri torp (ok I know they are 2-slot weapons) or a swift torp is much higher than being hit by a blind shot from sniper at the beginning of a match.

 

I have said this twice and i will say it again

Iam not asking any nerf i just wanna know
why sniper cannon is balanced?
And what is the logic behind of having its own crit chance?

@Miika any devs
If you have an answer so let's hear it
If you don't have or don't wanna answer due to your policy
just lock this thread ,replays aren't related to the title

 

Without perks, maximum critical chance is 15%, not 25%, and it's not OP, because then every 7 shots, one will be critical, and the damage will average out to less than blast and explosive cannons at the same level.

 

Don't tell me you didn't see all those faces

 

But ex cannon without perks means(36% less damage) so it is still more than what it should be, for a fast long range cannon that have a crit perks and talent for no reason

 

Because this happens really fast. You see the unfriend speeder and half a second later you get hit by 2-3 snipers because sniper takes no time to aim.

 

I’m not sure if I get what you mean. For Tesla bolt it’s alwasy a blind shot at the beginning of a match, firing it without seeing any unfriend.

 

And who doesn’t use crit perks?

 

But Sniper Cannons without talents, then their crits don't even deal much damage.

 

That’s why you should move towards the unfriends more carefully, always find a cover. I believe you don’t always get hit if you’re not being too exposed.

 

I meant that my example was just a joke
I know that that sniper shoot was a blind shoot and it is not counted

 

Railgun without talents deals almost no damage. Blast cannon without talents deals almost no damage. In fact, almost any weapon without training deals almost no damage compared to what they deal with talents

 

And again ex cannon with no talent loses like 40-50% that make its base damage around 1k if not less

 

Yes, but I was talking about no perks and additional stats added to the weapons, and theoretically, a sniper cannon with no talents should be as bad compared to its ultimate form as a blast cannon is to its ultimate form.

 

Its balanced. Sniper cannon depends on the user, and some of them cant aim the long distances or aim ahead of speeders.
I use the defender, not shooter

 

Just a minute
Let's say some logic
all cannon were the same (has the same CD ,damage,range,...etc)
And then bhurt done some chages that are

1-left a cannon like it was and named it standart ,now you will know why it is he standart
2- made another cannon deal higher damage (a bit bigger bullet)by making it slower (bcuz that bigger will fly slower)and he named it blast

3-made the third deal more damage by slowing it down(like what happened to blast) and then made its bullet biggee again (ahain like blast cannon )and then uaed another more powerfull thing to fire it from(splash damage) bcuz he made his bullet away bigger than it can handle ad it was named ex cannon
4- i think (less damage than standart cannon) just to make it fast (by making its bullet very small (and small object travel more if it was pushed by the same force) and it was named sniper cannon

So there is no reason that sniper has crit chance ,perks,talent ,nothing was taken from it to be given critical

 

No, and stop making threads about it

 

Yeah that is what sniper was made for long range very high speed ,but crit chance,talent,perks where did they came from ?nowwhere no reason to be existed

 

I guess it has critical because in real life, it should be more accurate, and therefore having a higher chance of hitting the critical area of a target.
