1.4.5 New Balance Changes "When Ambush Comes To Shove"
Atruejedi:
--- Quote from: Norm von Luftballons on March 25, 2016, 09:47:45 pm ---And for those like Atruejedi with pet Mobula builds, you can now overlap two Mercs on a wing with an Artemis up top and create a new "trifecta." It's actually easier to do than before, at least if you're not wedded to the light flak as your finisher of choice. I doubt any such plan could ever be considered "good" simply because of how far it throws out the basic repair setup of the ship, but I would not say that you've, ahem, "destroyed fun."

My "pet" build was two mercs on one side and a light flak on the top middle. Now the only option for the top is... an Artemis. Joy. Yipee. Huzzah.
Fun destroyed. I shouldn't be shoe-horned into taking an Artemis on the top if I want to try a long range build on one side.
Daft Loon:
The shape of the spire would balance its being given high vertical acceleration in some less obvious ways too, when going up it cant get its guns to the height ceiling like the mobula can because of the height of its balloon above even the top guns, going downwards it has the problem of being about 30m closer to hitting the ground than it feels like.

Speaking of, does the galleon suffer the same issue aswell?
And if so, does this mean squid can get it's guns higher than almost any other ship?
Solidusbucket:
Yes (which is why squids can sit on top of a galleon's balloon at height ceiling. I think. I don't actually know other than from playing the game.)

I'm pretty sure galleons can momentarily bypass the flight ceiling from posture + weight alone, just like how they're extremely resistant to the trade winds.
