valid self damage immunity augments

[artc 1,119]

Have self damage immunity. I know they have already augaments for this for the turret, but it might be nice to be able to use a real good alt for the turret and still be able to not recieve self damage because of the hull augament.

I am not a big fun of this idea mainly because we already have augments that remove splash damage from turrets in return for lower damage. However, as mentioned by Maf, those augments can always be tweaked and receive another advantage.

I dislike this idea. If you deal splash damage to opponents, than be skilled ennough to avoid self damage. Let's not remove the one of the skill-needed abilities. By the way, protections do reduce your damage.

You mean "Augments"?

I like this idea.

Players can use a good damage dealing Augment for their Turret, like Adrenaline, and use Self-Damage Immunity to not get hurt at all.

This is pretty fair still because they can't to self-damage to themselves while using Adrenaline, to make their damage boost. They would have to get damage from other tanks to activate their Adrenaline.

I dont think this is a good idea you know why...Ima get streight to the point. There would be huge magnum, Gauss, and striker abuse which will make these turrets too OP. For example having AP or EMP Gauss and with this immunity idea would become too OP because now it will be able to become an infinite range turret that wont self destruct at close range. Or this augment can be also abused with especially Magnum due to its huge splash radius that you can use at close range and not self destruct. As for striker, Cyclone or especially Uranium paired with this hull immunity will just make it too OP. There is a lot more examples I could give but the list would be too long. My point is that having something like this will cause more problems and more balancing issues to clean up. *(I forgot to add the fact that I can see this hull augment also be heavily abused especially with vikings OD when using splash turrets)

Added 3 examples. Added one last note at the end

This Augment may be very weak in a side, and very OP in another side.

Being immune from most of Magnum shots (except the direct shots), and being a good anti against Wasp Bomb, because Wasp Bomb is a complete Splash-Damage thing, so you're completely immune against it. Also the same thing with gold rockets.

He proposed a SELF damage immunity, not splash.

If anything i think splash damage should be implilemted for augaments, (the people that have them). It should be that if u have guass has ap and hits an  enemy right next to him, he also get that ap effect. That way they cant keep dealing that effcect over and over.

I don't think this is a good idea. Every turret with splash mechanics would be able to abuse it. Sledgehammer thunders, uranium strikers, and heavy plasmagun twins  and probably mortar magnums will just ram you till you're dead cause they can. And so will crusaders and Ares.

This will just take out a massive chunk of skill out of those things.

Agreed, it will make certain Augments completely useless.

 

As for my own opinion.
