Isida - Nerf this stupid turret

[Robyn51 2]

@Above: Supposed to be for healing. Not killing.

 

Right now it's too easy to use it for killing. I've seen isidas run past my injured tank trying to kill instead of heal. . . gets me ticked off.

Oh dear .... however same as you they are probably looking for a high score or D/L and if you use Isida you cannot constantly run around healing - buy some 1st aid kits but I would imagine you got at least 100 from the game  :)

[Robyn51 2]

Isida needs to be nerfed.  Due to all the hulls being much faster now, the isidas on small hulls are the cheapest thing in the game.  They were already OP before the physics update but now that they can get to you before you can kill them... forget about it.  I can't tell you how many times a group of isidas comes into games and takes them over.  It happens almost every game I'm in now and I can't stand it.  Its ruining the game.  At least when other turrets were OP they were at least GUNS.. It IS a tank game.  The stupid healing nurse turret that is beyond boring to use should not be the most OP gun in the game.  JC tanki

If you can't beat 'em join them - at least your on equal footing

@Robyn: Only Newbs or Buyers buy drugs. I am neither.

 

Buyer = One who buys Crystals

 

Newb (Not Noob, for those of you who do not know the difference) = A person who is new to the game.

 

I am not talking about healing 24/7. There are instances where attacking and killing will open for you, but as an Isida user, your first priority is to make sure your team is healthy. . . .You don't just ignore your teammate like that. That person should go play DM's.

 

And I have seen Isidas do well in DM's.

Isidas do well in DMs? I usually don't see them, and when I do, they're the Isida/Hornets who run around collecting crystal boxes.

[SpHryfBoss 573]

no, i have almost all weapons m3... if you are skilled enough its easy ^_^

im skilled in all of them  :ph34r: it really depends on my mood, but if im sugar high im unstoppable B)

[SonofDeath 512]

Isida sucks in alot of maps due to its short range

So its even

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

@Infected: I remember one particular Hornet/Isida who was basically a hit and run . . he would hide, and when people were near, he would come out and strike. He only attacked when the enemy was alone, or if there were two, he would kill-steal or kill the winner. And then right after the kill, he'd go into hiding ASAP. Then repeat. . And he did very well at it too. He survived a long time due to that Hornet and Self-heal. And it was indeed a sight to see. As a Railgunner I had the bird's eye view. . .so it was very interesting. ^_^

 

@SonofDeath: Isida doesn't suck in a lot of maps. I mean, if you're trying to kill people in Serpuhov, then obviously you will suck. Its job is to heal. Seems people are ignoring that.

Just so you know, Isida may seem OP to you, but as an Isida user, what it is now is necessary. Let me explain: the short range of Isida is the bane of its existence. Once you lock on, you must keep yourself locked on or you are a dead tank. And sometimes it's hard doing that when being against a skilled player and you are trying to watch out for mines in your way. -_- also Isida is targeted a Tom by long range weapons and it sometimes is very hard to kill those long range weapons as an Isida as they are, of course, long range. Also freezes are its worst enemy. If you don't sneak behind them, you are dead. They out range you every time. (Unless they are a noob freeze) thunders use their self destruct ability on you all the time. It takes skill to avoid that. Plasma guns push you back and makes it hard to attack. Believe me, Isida is not invincible. So stop your whining and get an Isida protection paint.

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

@TheDude: You forget Drugs.

 

As I said before, Isida is alright without drugs. I can tolerate it. It adds a bit of variety to what you encounter.

 

However, drugs make it OP. It's a killer on drugs. And if it doesn't feel like killing you, then it'll just steal your flag. And a drugged isida is one of the most OP flag takers I've ever seen.  .  .

[HaloScorpion 79]

Especially when ur flipped over. It's easy healing for them.

[S15_Silvia 103]

Isida?

Whats that?

[r_bolas0 1]

Isida no needs nerfed!!And isida vs freeze win freeze(because experience player freeze and wrap) isida no have chance ....

[ziaayadad 26]

Freeze is far worse; an M0 can annoy you just as much as an M3 with the Freeze effect.

It costs nothing, and unlocks so fast; which is why you see them everywhere. :mellow:

True. Even a m3 user can bring on a freeze m0 with his hornet m3 and still have fun for freezing other users and slowing them down. Abit like my colleagues when I reach for the muffins :D

[Mr.SV.ENS 738]

They were already OP before the physics update but now that they can get to you before you can kill them... forget about it. 

You should get a real hull like wasp instead of complaining about an isida coming in range from your titan/mammoth. I never have a problem with isida's, because of the RANGE.

[r_Silhouette0 0]

You need to upgrade just the very first levels and you have a monster gun in your hands :mellow:

 

 

But maybe when a load of people notice that something is a bit overpowered it's because they are right...

It isn't, that's the thing. It isn't overpowered. I'm saying that and I'm not even an Isida user.

[Mr.SV.ENS 738]

Hey every gun is useless because enemy always put 398423923 freezers on flag. Why are the TDM so rare :(

tdm is so poplar in low ranks. make new account and enjoy tdm. :d

[r_Mr.Protest0 228]

Lol, right ok try to kill a isida m3 with your firebird.... good luck.  Isidas are getting like the highest DLs and all the flags in the game now.  Your either blind or a isida user if you don't see it. 

oh... how can you be that unexperienced?? about firebird, isida cant heal that fast 1v1 fire simply kills isida, if fire is m3 ( i have fire m3 and never had such problem...) now about cons of isida ( cons= to simply say bad sides :D ) has short range.. freeze and fire can simply kill isida when isida cant reach them :) ... isida is really strong in small maps like silence... if you dont have suitable combo: turret/hull/paint, dont join ;)

 

P.S. isida was my first m3 weapon (i hated it) but i still use it sometimes if my team is good enough.. and about blindness, think about yourself ;)

And I have seen Isidas do well in DM's.

I do agree with you on that point it's a team effort and always should be but you cannot tar all isida users with the same brush as there are always some individuals who only think of themselves.

But overall I'm with you on this.

[Reeco9 1,567]

I used to think Isida was bad in long range maps, but I joined a Serphurov TDM the other day and actually did pretty well. All I did was quickly skirt around the edge of the map, and then slaughter all of the shafts/railgunners from behind :)

[GAYATHRA 42]

must keep the "fire line" locked on, once its broken you are dead

cant face freezes 

only good thing it has, "health sucking" off enemys, doesnt makes it OP  -_-

[T.O.R_Ovi 51]

Solution : Light tank with freeze or fire !

[dragonsteel 13]

and the tunder m3 must kill the hornet m3 on 4 shoots

 

and in the third one the hornet health be 2-4  :rolleyes:
