It works. My missile turret definitely rotates faster with prof 5.

Also heat reduction to railguns would be useless because everything dies before overheat, that's how stupidly overpowered they are. I've been able to take out two tanks one after the other; two shots per tank = two dead tanks. I could've even destroyed a third tank on overheat if there was one, because it takes six shots to overheat.

you are right and you are wrong.

for killing one tank assuming you never miss, it does not ever over heat.

on the flips side if you are destroying a cru, or supply depot or multiple tanks it does indeed over heat. typically a rail gun can fire 7 consecutive shots before over heating, with this change you could fire all 9.

Though last time I checked, CRUs and supply depots can't kill you. Them having a lot more HP just means that you can't shoot as fast to manage the heat buildup.

I'm fairly certain railguns overheat on the sixth shot. And with your proposal you might as well just remove overheat entirely. Overheat was put in place to limit its ability to deal massive damage quickly, and you want to get rid of that? If anything heat buildup needs to be severely increased so that it overheats on the third consecutive shot.

FF somehow made dust better!.

I guess we could just go with the tried and true damage buff....

Maybe if you stack damage mods, you should overheat faster? Your pushing more energy through the turret, only makes sense. Official Unofficial D.A.R.K L.E.G.I.O.N team mascot.

If anything heat buildup needs to be severely increased so that it overheats on the third consecutive shot. nope the supply depo and cru's can't kill you, but the longer you stand their firing at them the more likely it will be that something rolls along that will. as for the over heating on the 7th that's just something I do when i'm about to over heat, add a slight delay on the 6th shot to get two shots instead of the one, but ya typically it does over heat on the 6th. as you mentioned the heat build up is currently is useless, removing it via skills just adds to those nich scenarios where not having the heat build up would be useful. as mentioned in one of these threads( not going to bother checking ), I'd prefer to just have the rotation fixed, but if I needed to pick another option it would either be reduced heat build up or increased damage.
