How to balance Aura and Fragger for good

Well our experiences disagree : )

Maybe you didn’t have enough time to practice cooking nades, I find it trivial to throw a nade at someone’s feet that will explode before they have a chance to do anything about it. Excluding some pesky angles/lots of cover

you can also do it when you know where they’re going to be

Yeah, true, although still isn’t very often that I do make that many kills. If I get lucky, maybe.

Yeah, I do agree that Fragger’s could use a slight nerf. Nothing too drastic definitely, maybe about a 10-30% damage decrease or the AOE could be a little tighter. The cool-down of the aforementioned nades is relatively high so a heavy nerf would be inappropriate seeing how waiting a long time for a nade that only does ~50 damage would be a terrible trade-off.

As for Aura’s health station, I would just advise you take it out via the use of skill that will deal heavy damage to the health station and the area around it. (ie. Nader’s launcher, Fragger’s nades, Arty’s bombs(lol), Skyhammer’s airstrike, etc.). Cause of the fact that the team will be huddling around the station, it makes them predictable targets. When they run out of the range of the healing station, take them out… Or just get head shots while they are in it… :tongue:

[quote=“chickenNwaffles;1356”]As we all know, Aura’s health station is still broken as fuck and makes no sense at all. Why not give Aura Pheonix’s health aura instead of her broken health station? Why the fuck does the merc named “Aura” not have a healing aura in the first place? Just remove/rework Pheonix and give Aura his healing ability and problem solved.

Fragger’s nades are one of the lamest things in the game. The class with the most health and really good mg shouldn’t have a grenade that he can just cook to explode in somebody’s face without warning. As of right now, the only time I ever to die to a Fragger’s nade is when it just explodes in my face. All you have to do is make it so he can’t cook his nades. There, problem solved. Now Fragger will take some braincells to use, instead of him being a master nade chef.[/quote]

I dont know I have fun Picking up Fraggers Nades with a Proxy with pineapple jugular and throw it back at him and auras health station needs to be tweaked and also the defib pads and shotgun in general
