You have obviously not been in a quality group fight.

Cool Story bro.


Apart from special, exclusive quality teamfights only for the upper class of server people...
Whenever I fight, most people use Graviton, sometimes Molecular if against Plasma or Particle. I rarely see Positon and it's logical. Since 90% of the fighter pilots use Pulse guns, it's close to self-mutilation to use them. Even if you happen to fight many people with Neutron and Tachyon guns, the defense penalty against Pulse will negate the advantages you may get.


However, I did not know Pulses will definitely be normalized. This will already make things more interesting.

It doesnt matter if most people use 2 Debilitators. If Im dueling someone that has 5 Krakens and 2 Debilitators I wont use a Graviton shield. Just because people dont do that because they are too lazy/too uninformed, is not really my problem. If they dont want that little bit of advantage, its their own fault. Against people that actually -can- duel, it makes a huge difference(same goes for group fights).

And uh, no it doesnt negate the advantage. But alas, from your logic(and sarcasm) I can see that you dont duel those "upper class of server" people, how you called them, so theres really no point in trying to persuade you into anything.

' Wrote:That shield busters are all of a type, and there's a shield strong against that type, is something of a balance mistake, I think. At the very least, it makes the other shields irrelevant.

So true.
This is simple, and yet so well formulated..
I could not phrase that any better.

If pulses get neutral to every shield, the next thread about shiled will be 'Too many Molecular Shields'
