Leave the OB's alone, it's not free so stop saying that, increase the WP needed to call one in. HTFU. |

The PS is just a get rid of tank button for all you jackrabits that didn't put SP into AV. It is completely unbalanced and a broken mechanic. Not to mention that it eliminates the need for an EVE pilot to support you (The only link dust and eve have)
If they keep this broken mechanic it needs to get smacked by the nerf bat, because why buy the cow if your getting the milk for free?
Your problem with OB's are it's AV capabilities? And you want a nerf for that!? Lmao Sounds to me like you're just butthurt because you've gotten your tank taken out 1 too many times by teams that are good enough to actually earn an OB. We should total nerf the OB's because they shouldn't be able to take out HAV's right All my of AV is militia/starter grade, pretty free right, should that be nerfed too?
The only issue with OB's is that they come a little too frequently. Like I said earlier, I would like to see a 3000 WP requirement instead of our current 2500. Or like someone else mentioned, increase the WP needed to use every consecutive OB by 500. |

Or like someone else mentioned, increase the WP needed to use every consecutive OB by 500. That's the problem, you said by teams that were good enough to earn them. Anyone can get an OB, it's the easiest thing to do, I can get them solo. They are way to easy to get.
Which is why I'm calling for a WP increase to call them in, I said 500 but even a 1000 WP Increase to 3500 per OB would be acceptable in my book.
If you want to go the increase each OB Called in by 500 WP. Make it so that it applies to the whole team. For example-
Squad 1 and 2 have both earned 3000 WP and are ready to call in an OB.
Squad 1 calls in OB.
Squad 2 loses current OB and must now earn another 500 WP to call in OB.
Squad 1 now needs to earn 4000 WP to call in their next OB.
Hope that made sense. |

All I hear from you is please don't take away my get rid of tank button, because I didn't spec into AV You should have to spec into the ability to call in a Free OB
Again your issue with OB'sare it's AV capabilities. Sorry but that's not even an issue. OB's should be more than capable of taking out tanks. OB's are meant to take out everything in it's proximity on the ground, your tank is nothing special to be excused from this mechanic. Even if they did make it a skill to call in OB's, every squad leader would obviously be skilled in it and you'd be right back here again QQing in another thread because your tanks will still be taken out. |

I get what you mean, but the problem with that is that it would make it harder for squads of new players to call in OB's. for example squad 1 is made up of experenced players from a good corp squad 2 is made up of new players who have made their own corp and are just starting out now squad 1 knows all the tricks to maximise wp gain and go down far less than squad 2 due to their equipment and skill squad 1 hits the first orbital and calls it in squad 2 have just earned 1000wp now under your system squad 2 needs to earn even more wp, that system would just mean that only the top squad on a team would get to call OB's in and it would make it much harder for new players to use one of dust's coolest mechanics.
I see your point. Lets take my above solution and take it a step further then, each squad is allowed only 1 OB per certain amount of time. The more squads that are on a team, the more time each squad has to wait before being able to call in another OB. |

now under your system squad 2 needs to earn even more wp, that system would just mean that only the top squad on a team would get to call OB's in and it would make it much harder for new players to use one of dust's coolest mechanics.

Quote:But you might end up with squads competing to see who could call in their OB's first.
I have to say i did like your system it seemed practical and meant there was still a chance of multiple OB's but it's much harder.
What if you applied the same system along squad lines but with a larger increase, say squad 1 earns 2500wp and call in a OB they now have to earn another 3500wp to get another OB so you would need a total of 6000wp to call in two OB.
This would mean that squad 2 could still call in an OB for 2500wp but if they wanted a second they would also have to get another 3500wp.
That's actually simpler and more effective than my idea. I like it, too bad it will never happen though  |
