Seriously, anything is better than small blasters... I want them to be usefulls so bad as anti infantry. how fix them?
If anything I think they should function more like a large blaster. Slower projectiles that have more mass to them with a less damage. While the Large Blaster should have its projectiles altered to be as plasma cannon rounds.
I know it would be a difficult fix and not really suitable but I know I'd certainly use Small Blasters on my HAV more if they were more reliable in terms of damage per shot.

Seriously, anything is better than small blasters... I want them to be usefulls so bad as anti infantry. how fix them? first problem is the limited movment of the front gun on tanks.. 180 deg isnot good.. also too low to the ground.. make the large turrets have 2 hardpoints for guns instead.
Having two turrets up on the cuppola would be poor HAV design. If anything they could bring it further up the front hull of the HAV instead of having it hang off the front and reduce its horizontal axis to 90-120 degrees.

I know it would be a difficult fix and not really suitable but I know I'd certainly use Small Blasters on my HAV more if they were more reliable in terms of damage per shot. I like this. I like this a lot. Give it like a 12 round clip and fire slow, powerful blasts. Blasters are used on top to keep AV away.
Indeed. I've made it no secret I feel that Large Turrets should have a limited field to being primarily AV turrets (they will need to be if Marauders and Enforcers come out with those extra module slots and 10K plus EHP) but still be able to skill shot infantry despite slow tracking speeds, and limited barrel depression leaving HAV hulls assailable by AV units.
To counter AV units HAV pilots should be incentivised to make use of vehicle gunners and Small Turrets designed to chew up and push off Infantry units.

Please keep the discussion relevant to small blasters please
It is relevant to small blasters as it related to their role as a small anti infantry suppression turret.

Its the ratio of directed content in which i felt the enfasis was on large turet balance overall based on There being no suggestions or insight on the small turret apart from tankers having to rely on them for anti infantry work. But again, my apologies=
Both are relevant to one another I believe. Still I guess this isn't the place for full turret balance talk, more specifically small blasters.

Hit detection is absolutely the main issue with small blasters, I dont want to sound high and mighty here but I know what I'm actually talking about. After all, this is Gallente Tech.
Not going to lie I've tried to use it..... and found it lacking. I am simply not willing to waste the PG and CPU on them when Rails do significantly better.
