- Remove brace
- Increase emplacement health to that of OKW t4
- If emplacement takes some amount of damage, like 33% of total health or something, it gets decrewed
This will add more bleed to the unit and make it more difficult to counter its counters. This will also make the emplacement over-all stronger in health to make up for the loss of brace, without making it even more of a pain in the ass. It is also still rewarding to shoot at the mortarpit without killing it, because you get the chance to wipe the veterancy and cause some bleed requiring them to recrew it. Right now you are stuck in a loop of try to kill it, fail, lose a bunch of shit, brits repair and take no losses.
Also make it so Advanced Cancer engineers can't repair the emplacements. They need to be vehicles only repairmen. You don't see the OKW t3 engineers repairing their trucks, because that's ridiculous.
I like these ideas! However the 33-50% increased damage in this bonus period after the brace is a bit too much and will totally kill emplacements as a 'unit'. I would go with 20% at the most.
But in the end, its up to Steam when they release it. Of course in case, that Relic already send patch files to Steam.
If I recall it correctly, since the last major balance patch was in June 2016 I believe, major patches always come in on Thursdays. But at this point, what will a week or two matter, as long as things get fixed.
1v1 player pool is very low since a few months now, it keeps getting lower. This will probably be the issue, since the Matchmaker will desperately try to find you a game, whilst failing to get anyone near your rank 90% of the time simply because there aren't enough players with your rank around.
Will probably get better once the patch hits and people return.
LeIG i'll argue is fine, but it's not performing the role OKW needs (counter garrison/dislodging static position). It's a braindead unit which is gonna slowly bleed your opponent but it doesn't "help" immediately after been built. It has one of the less thought veterancy (why the hell i want received accuracy and faster movement!)
Couldn´t resist. As to the LeIG, it is fine in my opinion. It just can´t do anything against garrisons, which is a problem vs maxim spam only in my opinion. LeIG is very potent when used right, that is to support your units and cause annoying mp bleed as later it will start to get those important hits and killing multiple models.
