| Summary | 0022192: AI Combat Sentry (aka murderbot)-- Balance Suggestions | ||||
| Description | The new AI combat sentry is *extremely* effective in its role to the point of making cloaking tactics pointless in its presence. Basic observations: 1) It can decloak things at a high rate and global range -- the fact that this is global should be constrained by its efficacy. It shouldn't be able to fully decloak my Raid Frigates until they can fire at least 2 salvos off (raid frigates could potentially get a buff to their cloaking pool as well) 2) The thing deletes raid frigates (this seems specifically directed at me =P ). The fire rate compounded by its bonus damage to high albedo makes this ship a nuclear deterrent for cloaking. They need some sort of damage reduction; I think it makes sense for this unit to be better at dealing with cloaked strike craft as opposed to single-targets (frigates) | ||||

Does the AI get these, or just the hunter/warden? The intent was that this should prevent the strategy of leaving cloaked units around to get vision on planets. |
|
|
The regular AI are getting these, they don't go around with the warden, but sit as system guards. |

Yes, I put these in the FreakySurprise group. It was intended more for the cloaked flagships, but those are gone now... |

* AI Sentry Frigate now decloaks much slower (from 2s for MK1 vs MK1 cloaked units, to 8s), damage 600 -> 400. |
