| Summary | 0014844: Velociter Type B very OP | ||||
| Description | Velociter Type B out-DPSes most or all AI ships including Model T and Acutian Executor (it has over three times the DPS of a Model X) while massively outranging everyone else and being far too fast to catch. Their shots also fly so fast it isn't even practical to evade a lot of the time. The only things that really work are interceptors or Gravity Missile/Nuke while they're flying in your direction. The design is fundamentally unworkable (highest speed and longest range?), so I'd suggest just removing them outright (replace them with something whose key strengths are not those two stats together). | ||||

But their shot is block-able by any bullets and they dont have shield,I use spread shot (Manual shot control skill needed )and Gigacannon to destory them easily , just dont chase them and wait till they heading you. |

Yah i agree theyre annoying but all you have to do is wait for them to come to you or gigacannon, now while were on gigacannon, well its a little weak i think |

I fired up a new game in 1.015 and was massivly annoyed by one of these in the opening mission! I'm sorry, but "don't chase them" is not going to be obvious to most players in the very first mission. The player shouldn't be kited... ever. The patch that added these claim they 'don't move that fast', but I'm not seeing any truth to that. |

Thanks! * Velociter Type B has seen a bit of a rebalance: ** The speed of the Velociter Type B shots has been slowed down substantially, making them easier to dodge. ** Velociter Type B ships no longer appear until 1 year into the game, so that new players aren't caught off guard by them. |
