Thunder - Stark = Balanced?


(Verticules) #1

Do you think Thunder is OP w/o the Stark?


(Dawnlazy) #2

Excessive HP and push-button-to-win ability are his problems.


(SaulWolfden) #3

He’s pretty much only good with the Stark. His MK46 is terrible because it does one less damage than it should and only performs well because of his ability. Timik is just ok.


(TheStrangerous) #4

Pffff… filthy plebs, Thunder + Timik is what I’m talking about!

On a serious note: Yeah, they gotta change them burst rifles. Horribly overabused.


(GatoCommodore) #5

hate to tell you this but there is no such thing as Equality and Balance


(GabebutGood) #6

I think mostly the problem is the burst rifles, (as said earlier) and Saul is right the mk46 is only good with his ability. I think instead of the stark they could give him k-121. Prob wouldn’t be balanced, but fun


(Dieu-Sama) #7

Balanced because of low ammunition and rather long reload.


(Eox) #8

He does not need the stark to be a major annoyance. It contributes tho.


(pumpkinmeerkat) #9

Answer to the first question is yes. Answer to second question is no. Not sure how to vote.


(Sefuh_FR) #10

Burst rifles are deadliest in the hands of low mobility / hp bags mercs because they need more stability than automatic weapons. In this case they still perform at close range despite being mid-long ranges weapons.

yknow, what if we switch Skyhammer’s BR-16 with Thunder’s stark?

Thing is nobody complains about Arty, Stoker, or Kira. The same way nobody complains about Aimee but complains about Red Eye, despite them both having the Grandeur. The issue is the mercs themselves and how they work.

No. he needs alot of rework sadly,he can’t be balanced by JUST removing stark
