    Hi,

    Most of us were complaining about how OP surgeon is. But now there is in the game a ship that absolutely destroys the balance.

    Just a question: Have you ever seen anyone using tartarus with its speed ability turned off? 5% dmg? Great joke.


    Here is my idea:
    Abilty: 5s +40% speed, no dmg reduction
    Cooldown: 120s

    Still strong, but not really OP.
     
  2. agreed I don't even use my taturus was a waste of money ,rapid fire has a 2 sometimes 1 volley of rockets Lame

    Hi tg, good to see you in this forum as well. :)

    I don't really like this change. Why would you nerf a ship that is mostly considered bad already? I can kind of understand complaints about its speed. It can be frustrating to feel terribly slow compared to tartarus.
    But if we look at general fights very few people choose to play tartarus because if they want to fight and just juke with its speed they get countered by ice/slow rockets too often.

    The other problem that I have with this change is your particular suggestion. It's basicaly a copy of the ability of the Lightning.
    The current ability of the Tartarus is pretty innovative, it shouldn't be changed.

    And don't forget that the Tartarus is terribly slow without the ability. That's why people don't turn it off.

    5% damage reduction is a big deal. Don't forget that fully upgrading you lf4 lasers gives you +6% damage only. And people spend millions of uridium to get that 6%.

    Hey, nice to see you here too :D Saw you here before, but I wasn't sure that's really you.Nice to see that i'm not the only one who's fed up with the "things" at "home". :D

    It "consiedered bad" coz of its outlook and lack of versatility in gameplay. It's a pure hunter ship, nothing more. Anyway, it's really OP.

    The idea copies the lightning effect in a stronger way (40% - 5s) and the rocket launcher skill is still does a great amount of damage. Yeah, basically it's too slow. I agree. But nobody turns it off, 5% dmg isn't that good reason to turn it off.

    120s 5s could be wrong. I got an other idea before - posted in hungarian forum - but i thought it's not necessary to post it here as well.

    Btw it seems i have to:
    It's simple: If you turn it on, it has a maximum of 1 min. and the same time CD as it was turned on. (For example 42 secs ON then you turn it off, you have to wait 42 secs to turn it on again. If you used for 1 min (60s), it turns off automatically and starts a 60s CD) - And just like its current behavior to CD boosters, thats just turning on and off, so boosters has no effect on the ability.
