GUNS & GUNNER SKILLS Balance Discussion v1.3.1
Captain Smollett:
Honestly the AOE is fine, especially with heavy clip. It just takes a bit of aiming.
I usually try to remind my gunners to sweep the areas where they're trying to disable, or even shoot in bursts if taking out guns is the priority.

Just thinking of newbie standpoints...there is almost no benefit to hwatcha fishing again...probably because nobody knows how to use it at such a low level (first thing I did when I was new was practice mode, see what each gun did, and what each shot did...) even though a good hwatcha is probably the best counter to these one ship, double-combo brawlers that people moan about.

We're doing some work to get newbs on the right kind of ship. No more newbie hwacha fishes.
Zander Broda:
Something really needs to be done about the gunner Vs engineer balance issues. i've been one achievement away from leveling up my gunner for weeks now, but due to the communities hostility towards gunners i just can't get it, not once, not twice, but three time in the last week have the DUCKS forced me to quit out of match's because i wanted to play a gunner, and i'm not talking about jumping into matchs already happening, i mean going into a lobby, the last time i was on a ship alone waiting for people to pop in and a couple of them got on and demanded i switch. if this is how the community reacts to somebody playing one of three classes how do you expect to keep new players past the first day?

Tell them they're wrong, and if they still demand for you to engineer, just move to another ship. It's not a balance issue, is a strict misconception issue (and the ducks are known for not liking gunners).
