I think Assault Engineers should stay 0CP and 5 men so USF can keep a healthy alternative (aggressive) opening, as diversity = fun. 4 men was too ineffective to be viable.


Locking flamer behind tech and moving 0.9 RA into vet1 should make them manageable enough early game if Axis can set up some favorable engagements, while still being very strong in ambushes (just like Sturmpioneers).

Hey,

When I look at your numbers, I can't see that pathfinder are worser than grens. You think they are UP?
I agree pathfinder spam vs okw JLI is not gonna work. BUT when you play vs wehrmacht, they are very good.
Reason:
- Cloak in cover ( vs sniper)
- Giving long LoS ( spot mg42)
- Don't underestimate the crits "headshots" from them.
- They earn very fast vet imo
- Don't forget to build this thing with them. You can build 3 of them and they are useful.

I personal think the problem is: vs OKW they are UP - fine; but vs Wehrmacht they are fine - OP.

+1 Good idea!
If the unit stays at 5-men i would like to see an increase of their cooldown on ability recharge. People should not be rewarded for not building units. The combination of 5 men units who are really strong and can be called in at 0CP is too strong imo.

As others said before: Really good patch who made the game a lot more exiting.

So, do we now have any ideas to balance them? You guys are turning in circle.

We have:
- they are too cheap
- they are too spam-able
- they become too strong with G43-upgrade.

They become cheaper and lower CP to send them in earlyer, that is good... But I still think it would be better to remove Jägers and make Obersoldate arrive earlyer, or make a Jäger-upgrade for them.

OR

- Making them 300mp again and an unit-limitation.

OR

- remove them, replace them with an Jäger-upgrade for Obersoldaten (like STGs).

I'm here to tell the truth.

^could that be implemented in COH 2 though?
