My favourite change. Back to "Vulcan Bots" dominating every battle after they press one button and drives around. Im sure nothing is wrong with this... Pressing one button to get guaranteed first place with like 1k+ score playing TDM in non-TDM modes.

An interesting name for a boring copy/paste augment. LOL

So... it's basically Firebird now? It'll only shoot for 2.5 seconds and recharge in 1. This is probably terrible for Freeze because it relies on constant firing for the cold effect to work.

Increasing damage even more. O.O The decreased Twins chance is something of a Pulsar nerf on paper. It'll have a max chance of 7-8%. Vulcan looks like it'll be insufferable, though.

Hornet... buff? No longer extreme map-wide AP, but that is a wild AP duration. If someone doesn't have RK, it's over for them. Nice Supercharge buff.
Ares nerf. Nice.

not sure how useful this will be since the AP effect is only a one time thing (not continuous like Paladin's).

Twins in general is one of the weakest turrets (I call it the suicide gun). Rounds are still too slow, impact force is low, damage is low, splash damage affects self more than enemy.

To be honest, Pulsar just made twins useable, just like Helios made ricochet useable. But good to see some buffs at least.

Vulcan isn't getting a straight damage buff like Firebird and Freeze got last week. The reload time is being increased. It will be an overall buff (current: 233.33-733.33, after 266.66-800) but critical DPS during Supercharge is also being almost halved. It'll be strong again at higher modifications with the better hit rate from the faster projectile speed but you may be overreacting.

I think you don't know what i meant by "Vulcan Bot" conbo. Vulcan as a turret can do 4000dmg/sec i don't care as long as Vulcan Bot conbo is not a thing.

Vulcan Bot conbo is vulcan paired with flying hull. While it sounds like your average joe conbo it's actually not. Because you're literally playing on Auto-Pilot.

On mobile you press auto-shoot button and just drive around. That's it.

On PC i guess you need to hold your mouse and drive. Super difficult to pull of i mean it got me shaking!

Now this negative skill conbo EASILY and i mean WITH NO EFFORT gets you 50+ kills in matchmaking battle with AT LEAST 1k+ score. If you at least have functioning human brain. You literally cannot in any reality convince me it's fair or balanced because its obviously broken. Oh and like i said Vulcan Bots DON'T PLAY WHAT THE MODE wants them to play, they play TDM in every mode and get first place while the second place is like 500+ score below them. Today i played with Vulcan Bot in my team. Industrial Zone SGE map. Vulcan bot used paladin hull. he didn't cap a single point. he did THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE! he would stay near the point then when its-halfway captured his attention span could not hold it anymore and he would just leave the point going from 50% to 0% captured. Guess what happened by the end of the battle? He got 54/3 k/d 1,4k SCORE. If you think im overreacting you just don't play matchmaking.

one of my main turrets and probably needed a nerf because it was a bot / no-brain-required turret for lazy players like me, but this is too much

It's not like Magnetron Twins was considered one of the top Augments in the game before Pulsar was introduced...

I see nothing wrong with this turret. It sounds weird to say, but you kinda have to know what you are doing while playing it, just spamming spacebar won't do you any good.

Ricochet tho is plain unusable without Helios.

That sounds like a skill issue, Helios has a poor sustained damage output comparatively, berserk is more proactive and plasmatorch isnt bad either. You've simply become too accustomed to a '7 projectile burst' to clearly be able to kill people.

"Ricochet tho is plain unusable without Helios." -> especially when compared to most of the Turrets in the game. Why would I ever play Bers o Plasma Rico when there are way better options out there?

And sorry but I don't really think I have any sort of skill issues, I did not even play Helios that much even before the nerf.

What I meant to say is that Helios is already mediocre unless paired with Booster or Crisis, and Stock/Status Rico is just horrible (again when compared to the competition)

You're mostly right. Something like Sizzling Field or Super Smart Minus Field is hard to use because it requires you to luck out with critical hits or set up bounce shots for status effects that can be removed by Repair Kit. Something like Magnetron is a bit better since it actually leaves enemies vulnerable, but Tectonic Field is the status Ricochet that sticks out the most in my opinion. Depending on the map, it's the most potent and also easiest stun-lock augment.
