Declined New protection modules system

[TakeAShower 300]

How about this: Modules have no modifications (like Drones) and can be bought from the rank of Warrant Officer 3. They have 15% protection and can be MUed 20 times to get to 35% (same as current M3). Full cost of MUs (Without Speed Ups) is 300K crystals. Players who have < 15% Protection (M0 not fully MUed) get a full refund. Players with more than 35% protection get a refund of all the MUs on their M3.

 

What do you think? Will this un-break Railgun and Thunder?

Under review

 

While I agree that 50% is too much and ruins balance of some turrets, I don't think devs will ever do this. Idea is decent though.

Better than the current system.

 

What do you mean by 'unbreaking' Thunder? Thunder is the 2nd most OP turret after Magnum and both of these bias splash turrets need a damage and/or splash damage nerf.

He's referring to the fact that most players at high ranks already own 40-50% thunder protection and a 50% default damage nerf outweighs the recent un-needed buffs it received. 

 

Regardless, both Modules AND Thunder need a nerf. Also Magnum, but no one carries any Magnum protection anyways.

I think some protections should maxed out at 50% while others should be maxed out at a lower percentage and others yet to be maxed out at a higher percentage.

Thunder cannot be nerfed until protection modules are or it will be useless at higher ranks. That may change after this system is (hopefully) added.

I think TO should've kept the Legacy modules and never add these modules. They had to separate paints from protections, but those modules before were ok by me. You could have 45% against let's say Railgun but 25%, 20& and 10 % against some other turrets. Or maybe system where modules would protect by priority:

If i have equipped modules against Thunder, Railgun, Magnum In that order, I would have 50 % protection against Thunder, 35 from Railgun and 20/25% against Magnum.

This...I like this

Bad idea.

 

Keep all protection modules with 50% protection from all turrets.
