Idk why you think making it smaller and thus harder to hit while giving it a 16% speed increase isn't gonna help it.
It's a unit that doesn't specialize because it does multiple things yes. Unless you want to remove features you can't buff them by much at all otherwise it can become broken a lot faster than you imagine.
vision/water vision is not something that should be locked behind a faction. This is to make carriers from other factions have a more supportive role against something like stealth/subs.
Perhaps, you misunderstood me.
I never said these changes weren't going to help.
That's the point of the changes, to begin with, right? To help?I said I didn't see how it would alleviate its (main) issues.
It being a slow bulky unit with bad maneuverability has always been the main issue.
My concern was that the unit itself barely classifies as an experimental,
yet, it lacks strength in either of the roles that it tries to fulfill.
No idea why you think it barely classifies as one. At the same cost as 4 subhunters you get 1.25x more range and 10x more hp. When you surface it you get a carrier with double the hp of other carriers. More over it's like 10x the size of the 2nd largest sub.
Does it not qualify as one according to you because it's too weak? Does that mean Novaxes didn't classify as an t4 until they were balanced years ago? Does that mean the ripper didn't classify as an t4 until a year ago?
Most, if not all, other multi-role units in this game excel in at least one of their roles.
For example, the Aeon T3 Gunship.
Moderate Air-to-ground capability, but impressive air-to-air combatability.
You're wrong. Restorers are worse at anything they do compared to their counterparts. They roughly have half the dps of a broadsword when shooting at ground targets and less than half the dps of asf when shooting at air. They are still good however because they are flexible.
Shouldn't an Experimental be... you know... slightly better than a unit in a tech level below?Also as ftx said t4's are never better than
As ftx said: no. All land t4's lose to mass cybran t1 maa spam. This doesn't mean they aren't good.
