Thread: Let's speak about OST AT mine1 Dec 2018, 19:26 PM Jump back to quoted post30 Nov 2018, 10:08 AMferwiner Lets just settle on the fact that everything that can be killed with unscouted teller can also be killed by unscouted demo. You mean could be killed by an unscouted demo. Now there's no such thing as an unscouted demo, meanwhile, ALL I'm asking for is a reduction of 20 damage, and I'm giving them immobilization of lights. This is why I cannot freaking understand all the dialogue about "the demo was so much worse". Okay! Good for you, I'm not asking for the teller to be nerfed at even a fraction of that level.

Which means it is similar. I think you are massively under-valuing fuel vs manpower. If we go by the in-game translation as Dark suggested, a t70 dwarfs an Ober squad. By a lot. In: COH2 Balance

"With my arbitrary conversion, very few vehicles will pass one of the most expensive squads in the game" Fuel is map control dependant. Manpower isn't. Suggesting that the conversion is as simple as doubling the number of fuel is just silly. Sure you can't increase your manpower income. Your oponnent also can't do anything to decrease it, short of choosing not to kill your units In: COH2 Balance

I don't think that's possible. Mobile defense has been meta for a while now while Ost has had it's insta-kill tellers. And are more people are gonna use the Puma just because they need to 20hp more of damage to a standstill vehicle when it hits tellers? Is that really asking so much that people are going to make doctrine choices based on that? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Let's speak about OST AT mine29 Nov 2018, 16:26 PM Jump back to quoted post29 Nov 2018, 10:31 AMferwiner I wouldn't say that is the case. First, even if you only kill single infantry squads with your demos, there are still squads that cost around the same as most expensive LVs. And cheapest LVs also cost similar resources to cheapest infantry squads. Which means the two losses are comparable. "Around the same"??? What squad costs 75 fuel? Or any fuel for that matter? So let's be clear. I'm making a stretch when I compare two different 1shot kill abilities because there counterplay isn't similar. Yet somehow 0 fuel units are "similar in cost" to 75 fuel units? Jump back to quoted post29 Nov 2018, 12:33 PMVipper A nerf to the tellar mine would mean that Ostheer light vehicle counter will further weakened. Please explain specifically how they will be too weak if the teller reduces a t70 to 20hp. Possibly with an immobilized engine (for all lights as Armadillo suggested) In: COH2 Balance

The unit would still be as good as dead but still in need of some sort of follow up. Thats all I'm after here. And the heavy engine damage for lights makes great sense. In: COH2 Balance

We will likely see a lot of it in the future USF tech changes Yeah it's 270. I think it should maybe be 300 because of what you said here. It will be very spammable in the new tech layout And maybe increase the cost of AP rounds to 45 Muni, return it to 30 at vet 2 or 3. Doubling up on those early on can delete all of Ostheer t3 very easily. In: COH2 Balance
