| Summary | 0025445: Ethereal Cruiser weapon cooldowns | ||||
| Description | First of all, the currenty behavior/cd's might be intended, but it feels kinda strange, The Ethereal Cruiser has two weapons, the Ion Disintegrator: Reload Speed 1s, Burst Fire: 5 salvos fired at 1s per salvo before switching to 1 salvo fired at 17s per salvo (and then switching back) and Paralytic Tesla Blast: Reload Speed of 17s Furthermore it's a cloaked ship that expends 100% of it's cloaking points each time it fires and that regains it's cloaking points after 10s of not loosing any, With a 17 seconds cd on both of it's weapons the first (or at least my first) assumption would be that that it shoots. then cloaks again after 10 seconds which would mean it has another 7 seconds in stealth before it shoots again (assuming there are not other units that decloak it). (The cruiser's descrpition would hint at such a behviour as well. ) After watching the cruiser in prolonged battles though, and considering the weapon cd's it appears that it rarely "retreats" into stealth due to that the weapon cd's are asynchron. If i understand the weapon cooldowns correctly the times when it actually fires would look something like in the attached screenshot (red for the Ion Disintegrator, green for the Paralytic Tesla Blast) which would explain why it rarely "retreats" into stealth during longer battles So maybe it would be helpful to either reduce long cd of the Ion Disintegrator OR increase the cd of the Paralytic Tesla Blast so that they fire more synchron and actually allow the ship to stealth itself again regulary. | ||||
