GUNS & GUNNER SKILLS Balance Discussion v1.3.1
awkm:
Furthermore, ignite is only one part of the equation. There's also how many charges it applies.
Currently, I don't expose how many charges things apply.
I will in the future though :)

Hey, might as well ask what others may ask...even if it is redundant...to get all facts!
But yes, I think we got enough, thanks Awkm!

Final answer regarding the Galleon having too little hull health: if your armor is down to allow someone to pump an entire clip of anything into you then what were your engineers doing, what were your teammates doing, and where were you in combat? There are a lot of factors that can ensure the Galleon's survival as well as many factors that can bring it to its knees, just like any other ship. This is the first time that any kind of Galleon balance has been brought up in recent times and there is only one voice saying that Galleon is underpowered.
Please move all Galleon related discussion out of this thread or at least into the Ships thread.

I wasn't referring to the Galleon being underpowered, I was referring to the Galleon because it has the most HP and can still die to 1 clip of greased mortar, making it OP. It is the gun that applies the most explosive damage over the shortest period of time over almost any chaingun target. And it's not a small margin, with the greased rounds the margin becomes excessively large. That was the point I've tried to make on several occasions. It destroys ships that are supposedly tanks and have a really hard time avoiding the greased mortar's range. That is the issue I've been trying to present here.
awkm:
There are ways to move out of arc and prevent arc from being gotten on you.
If you are in arc, yes greased mortar will just utterly destroy you.
Again:
- What were you engineers doing? Why is your armor down. The Galleon has a TON of armor. This is why it's a tank.
- What were your teammates doing? Why haven't they distracted or broken up the focus fire?
- Where were you in combat? Why did you not take evasive action?
There are a lot of things at work here. Under very specific circumstances, yes a lot of things will seem OP.

Burst is one of my favourites for the flamer.
