Iron Ranger Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I have not tested this, not in the testing mood for SC2 - sorry. In SC1 Rockets did not get the benift of exp bars in terms of defence. It was felt that this made them super weapons since there happened to be a set value for soft attack that never changed. Is this true in SC2? Does the bars of xp on rockets add to both that attack value and defence value? Or only one? If only one, I suggest making a change to both! Rocket in the right place are very usefull, with the ability to upgrade soft attack on several units the rockets shouldnt become superweapons (unlees poor play by the other side). With the bars of xp adding SOME defence perhaps we will see more IG. Side note, if the above is too much perhaps incressing the starting range to 2 would work well. Dont change the attack values (IE worth less as the range goes out so a L0 rocket attack at range 2 = 0 attack value). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Right now the defender losses formula for Rockets takes into account experience but not entrenchment and any defence bonuses... I could add these factors in if there is a majority in favour of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Ranger Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 Tough call, I hope a few of the testers will comment on this?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Ranger Posted September 23, 2006 Author Share Posted September 23, 2006 Guess I'd say add in defence bonuses but no entrenchement. This would make rockets in the right area tough but still easy enough to high tech/exp armor or armys. Seams the best from a balance/historical look. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonslayer Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I would think all defence bonuses should apply to rockets as for other units. Why should they be singled out for different treatment? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Ranger Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 They are unlike any other unit. They take no damage back for attack, they have ranged attack, they can effectivly attack all units and stratigic targets. For this they have 0 defence... except... exp right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
