I&R Pathfinder Suggestion

Jump back to quoted post8 Feb 2016, 17:08 PMEtherealDragon

It would only be balanced if

1. Sufficiently long cool-down
2. Don't work on retreating units or has a pretty low success %

Why? Because it would lead to cheesy squad wipes where you have I&R pathfinders constantly picking off the last models on retreating squads.

Personally I like the Airborne Pathfinders as they are now - I'd much rather have a free passive ability that works some of the time and frees up Muni for those delicious Paratrooper upgrades.

10 or 15 AMU cost? Really!? It should at least be 30(come to think of It even 30 is very cheap) with current amu income but without grand change, I think making pathfinders spawnable from house is better.

...So my suggestion is to add the "Assassinate" ability...
Thoughts?

15 muni would be about right.

15 muni would be about right. A 30 muni trade for whatever the targeted model's MP reinforce is, wouldn't offer any reward whatsoever. I mean, nades are 30 muni and have the potential to wipe a squad. This is just targeting a single model.

First of all a nade is somewhat a skill shoot in coh2 and this "assasinate" button of yours is just targeting ability.
Secondy, they both have potential to wipe out squads. Dropping costly units and forcing to retreat easy. Not to mention could kill snipers with a cost of 15 Amu -which is fare for you-
Lastly, which is not a direct responce to your ridiculous "whats fare" mentality. People have to stop favoring their beloved factions. Try to play all of em and If you have balance ideas about the game just say them in the name of balance not fanatism.

Maybe I'm just a player who enjoys the challanges in game try to make best of It rather than easy route giving units assassinate button for 15amu with 15 seconds cooldown. Also Its strange for you to go offtopic in your own topic but again...

They're actually cheaper, not sure by how much, but by (khaled) ALOT.

They have the best arty in the game, for only 120 (?) muni.
Which comes the earliest of all other arties in the game.

The I&R pathfinders are fine, the Airnorne Pathfinders on the other hand are not. They should spawn out buildings and maby that snipe ability.
