Ruairi:
Drogue chute can be used to steady a ship, this is particularly useful on a lumberfish. But it also works on other sniper ships.

Because I sometimes purposefully destroy my balloon to dodge downwards when I am on a Mobula, I can always catch myself with drouge chute.
But yes, its inital idea is to have it take longer for one to ground out against Carronades nd Lumberjacks, I would imagine.

Just a general increase, I'm letting people decide what they want the Impact Bumpers to have reduce damage for. I'm all for making it resist explosive and shatter. Not sure about fletchette (right spelling, right?), and fire and piercing should be able to punch through impact bumpers.

Crafeksterty:
If it decreases damage versus other type, it will be quite overpowered.

Impact on the other hand is Direct collision. It is super specific. And the only gun in the game that can be blocked by it slightly is mines.
Impact bumpers is to fight getting rammed, or forgive your own ram onto another ship. So usually, a impact bumper ship wins on a direct ram versus an impact bumperLESS ship.
But it can also be used to not recieve too much terrain damage.

Pyramideons and goldfish tend to use this. Pyras could also use this versus terrain to turn quicker. "tactical turning" as we usually call them when it happens.
Spires, galleons tend to use it in a defencive way, to not get too much terrain damage when falling down or getting rammed in general.

More people need to use this on a junker versus pyras. Junker has more than enough armor to sustain versus weapons, its the ram that takes out the junkers baloon that is the worry.



I would increase Impact bumpers IMPACT damage reduction by another 15%. Because we need more tools that make us want to choose these tools.

nhbearit:
Impact bumpers on a Junker would only waste a tool slot. Junkers simply don't benefit from them because a good Junker pilot DODGES any incoming rams. A Pyramidion coming in for a ram should be every Junker pilot's best-case scenario. Just kick on a little Kerosene and Phoenix claw and you're suddenly on the side of the Pyra with your kill guns ready to go.
