Discovery 4.91 Patch 12 Balance Changes [12/6/2019]

[Shaggy]

OSC shuttle is missing 750 power core to fire SNAC. RIP

I discussed this with Markam earlier and I'm kind of thinking we just shave 750 power drain off the SNAC. Will bring it to the balance chat for further discussion.

Is this thing still being discussed?

Not only is the OSC Shuttle missing the power core to fire a SNAC but so is the Plier

hi now that it's been a while

i have not seen a single person using scatterguns

you have to be nearly touching what youre shooting at to hit them, the range is shorter than the length of most bombers, and the projectiles attempt to intersect before they even reach the nose of a bomber like the Waran

i had to bump a trade lane to shoot it

could you figure out something for scatterguns to make them not pointless thanks

Yep, Scatters definitely need some loving. The nerf to them completely made them useless

Also with bombs being class 4 hasn’t made loadouts any more “varied” We need more options on Torps and the bombs were great. Half the damage and power was okay but they should have been left in torp slots.

Buffing chain guns shield damage most of all and maybe it’s hull damage would do more for varying loadouts.

Also as a Sair Player could Colda Del Cids get looked at? They’re practically less efficient and slower than regular emp cannons. So why use them? If Tizona del Cids aren’t going to be buffed to 700m/s, like has been repeatedly asked since all 4.0s got moved to 700m/s, then perhaps Colda del Cids could be come the Corsair 700 m/s gun for fighters.

ops wrong thing

Perhaps boost scatter guns up so they are half what the original distance was, so still a nerf but not so crippling

Can we get a Plier that can mount and fire a SNAC please. So it can be SNAC and CD? Alot of people are complaining it can still mount double MR, but they do not realise it can be insta killed by a single SNAC hit. My Plier is CAU 7 and It can die by a SNAC, but trying to kill bombers in it can be scary knowing this, and not being able to instakill a bomber in return is not very nice So please can this get fixed so it can fire a SNAC and mount it ofcourse

Why should a SHF be able to do everything as well as or better than any of the alternatives?

Hang on, only the Plier and OSC Shuttle can't mount a SNAC. So why are they not allowed to and every other SHF Can?

Because they are already better than other SHFs for different reasons.
