Iron dome drone formation

Optional names suggested:
Iron wall, Iron barrier, Iron curtain, Snowball, power sphere, Ball formation...



+20% Hitpoints
+30% Shields
+10% Shield absorption
-30% speed
-15% Shield penetration
-5% firepower

Formatoin is almost like half Crab, and double Heart with really slow speed.
Resembles little turtle formation, with the drones relocated.

(Could be limited time ormation at christmas.)
Thats why, price would propably be 125.000 U


Pros and cons:

It is very slow, so it's bad when attacking, and propably useless, when starting fight. Unless you are waiting with group enemy to arrive, in defended small area, then it's excellent.
(For example, when defending CBS.)
Propably would be perfect formation for defending CBS with Citadel or perhaps with Sentinel.​

 

Me likey but it has to be buyable winter only and speed decreased by 75% BASE

 

+10% Shield absorption
-10% Shield penetration

----------------
Pfff, just say it has 0% shield absorption and penetration lol

Heart has 20% hp extra but 10% shield and -5% dmg
i would rather lose -5% dmg to get 20% hp + 10% shield
Than lose 50% speed to get 20% hp + 30% shield xD (the formation has 20% shield bonus difference with heart)

 

I don't think it would make much difference if it decreases speer 50% or 75%, since 50% decrease already makes your ship significantly slower than any ship in the game.

But if others agree with you, i will change that. ​

Could you please explain why ?​

This isn't supposed to be formation, that replaces heart formation if that's what you mean.

You can switch to heart after start, if you need more speed lol.
It's special formation for special situation.​

 

That is a great idea, I'll support it but just sayin the speed penalty alone should be enough for the benefits.
Oh and I suggest the absorb include all damage not just lasers.

I think "power sphere design" would best describe it.....

 

Just add laser damage is decreased by 10% and I'm all good with the idea.

 

Ohhh...if a double-boosted sepped tank citadel has this

Looks good, and the boosts/reductions are reasonable.

Meh, any speed reduction above 25% is a serious blow to fighting (and running) capabilities.

 

Looking at your picture it looks like an idea for a tank config...not 1 to take an army out...but to make them steer clear of shooting you lol

 

NICE IDEA BRO )

 

Right!!! Let's keep it going.
What do u think of the feed back Adamantium?

 

I was originally thinking it like that, but i felt that it might be little op. so that's why i added something extra to penalties.​

I don't know what absorption includes normally, but i was thinking that it should be similar.
​

Thats great name. I will add it to Optional name suggestions. ​

That would be sad
, because i was trying to make this formation so, that it doesn't have damage reduction.
That,s why i would like to reduce some other properties like (-10% Shield penetration), witch affects your lasers, but wont decrease damage.

Thank you all for your feedback.

Don't think decreased laser dmg is needed for this one.

 

+1 looks cool to me

 

I'm with SPSAT99, the lasers should b left alone.

 

Ok, decrease laser accuracy by 5 - 10%

 

That would drop firepower indirect way 5 - 10%, so it wouldn't make any difference from directly dropping firepower. ​

 

+1 looks and sounds good

 

Just get a Saturn (hit points) Goli and Hades (shields) and you will be fine

 

This would make you Ultra fine. ​

 

Nice idea! What about just "Ball formation" ? but its just thought
btw OP formation for citadel. Thats why i want it
