It's The Clawwwwwww!
GreyTea:
Start Again haha
Angular Drag-65%
Longitudinal Drag+300%
Thrust+50%
DPS to Engines-13
Base numbers
If we increase the damage output to engines by 50% and reduce turning effectiveness by 3rd we should get
Angular Drag-43%
Longitudinal Drag+300%
Thrust+50%
DPS to Turning Engines-26
Longitundinal Drag would be effected as well not sure how much though, maybe dependent on thrust.
Point being would the nerf help?
RearAdmiralZill:
I think that's the worry with galleons becoming a little rough to turn with both an increase to damage and a decrease to effectiveness.
This brings me to a new point though of the fact we can then perhaps buff a galleon's turning speed slightly to compensate. Like ammo for guns, pilot tools shouldn't be required to make a ship usable in a balanced world.
Would that change stop claw being spammed? Yea. Would it also make it undesirable enough to toss it in the useless bin, maybe. It still needs to be able to be useful when compared to just buffing turning engines.
I wouldn't mind claw's effectiveness as much (in theory) if it wasn't an "always on" option. One clutch turn to save a bad situation is what tools are for.
DJ Tipz N Trix:
Phoenix Claw gives a thrust boost? It doesn't have that in the tooltip in-game.
Crafeksterty:
The nerf to the benefitt of the pheonix claw would not help, a nerf to the allready drawback to the pheonix claw Would help.
I remember the time when the damage to pheonix claw wasnt doing damage. We constantly used it.
Today, with the damage fixed, we still use it. It damages the engines, but does not force us to take care.
More damage to the pheonix claw will make the claw, LESS used, but not chosen over other tool.

You are turning the ship harder than it was designed to do so the body should be under a lot of stress so it does make sense. Would that help offset the bonuses you get from it?

This seems like a very reasonable solution to the debate of its use.
