[UI] PET Kami (PVE Only)

As a pilot that uses this strat in pvp about 99.9% of the time, I believe its time to retire this item but not completely rendering it useless just enough to make popular pvp fights (1v1,1v2,1v3,2v2, etc) like they used to be. The shared booster nerf was a great stepping stone in the right direction and I feel this is the best time for the game to really start hammering away on the idea . First Ill explain the nerf specifics and then ill go into the many different reasons behind them.

NERF:
The title is very obvious, therefore we keep all the stats of the pet as they stand but make it unable to activate kami while targeting another player same company or not.

Possible buff ???


To some it may be a huge change to the way they play but in reality a lot of people wouldn't even notice unless they pvp 24/7 0_0(zero aliens shot for weeks on time). Also with the current max damage I believe fights would be more interesting if they relied more on other tactics to pvp. For those that only PVE this wouldn't affect you at all. Lets be real here, the kami is best for gates and big crowds of npcs. Sad to say thats your pets main purpose in its life </3. I can keep going on and on honestly but Id like to hear it from the community and not just from myself. Im happy to make the suggestion and look forward to discussing the idea.

 

So out of all the problems existing in the current state of Dark Orbit PvP right now, you believe the PET Kamikaze should be next to be nerfed?

So if you admit, that in reality no one would even notice this change, then why focus on it? Aren't there bigger problems to address in PvP?

 

Obviously there are other problems existing in the game its merely a suggestion, nobody said it needed to be next in que for fixes. I dont get the point of your comment since it creates a non progressive argument.

Again there is always problems in the darkorbit world when it comes to pvp. Let me rephrase because people like you literally quote anything for a another point on your replies. Everybody will notice the change just not as much as the players that are using the pet kami as a main tactic to pvp. I believe thats another reason the forum participation is dying. If you truly want to make this game better, you shouldnt go around shooting down ideas in this section. Darkorbit cant fix everything in one patch and this isnt the thread to discuss what needs to be the next fix. Its an Idea pool dont forget that.

 

Okay lets calm down and not take my questions so personally--they were two very simple questions, posted in an forum section where ideas should be challenged.

My main point is, if we want to change something in PvP / make this a better game, at least make it something big... Something that needs to be addressed. Not something so insignificant as Kamikaze, which is a very non-progressive idea in itself.

Good luck,

 

Funny thing is, if the other problems are fixed (use of external tools first) there really is no issue with kami or any other current tactic used.

When 3 cyborgs with full promi lasers, Sep and boosters lose to a Solace because an external tool renders EMP's, ice rockets and slow mines useless, there is a problem - Useless EMP etc is only compounded when that Solace is hitting harder in ring than a Cyborg in Drill - What about when said Solace, fighting mid map (just below the base) suddenly appears on a portal fully repaired [3 of us could not lag out long enough at the exact same time for a Solace to fly half way across a map and fully repair].

** My idea is - Fix known issues regarding external tools used in the game, then if Kami or anything else needs "balancing" for the PVP'rs, take a look at it.

 

For me this has no sense.

If you want to help PvP, bab auto-lockers
Or fix the pet-sabbing (use SAB on pet to regen shield).
