Catapult should be able to target air with artillery.

--If you are going to debate this anymore you have to answer that.

Against air and faster targets, yes - mines are better than Artillery Shot. For this reason:

scron2 Wrote:I'll remark that it takes skill to hit moving targets with such a small aoe. Still I see no argument on what exactly makes hitting an air target unbalanced.
THE WHOLE DEBATE IS HERE^ BUT EVERYONE SEEMS TO LIKE TO DANCE AROUND IT AND AVOID DIRECTLY SAYING HOW HITTING AIR WITH CATAPULT WOULD RUIN THE GAME. IT WOULD NOT. NOT ONE INSTANCE OF "MATH" WHY? BECAUSE TANKS LIKE "SCOUT" ARE IN THE SAME BOAT WHEN THERE ARE NO MINES. THERE REALLY IS NO REASON FOR IT NOT TO BE ABLE TO HIT AIR BECAUSE AIR UNITS ARE HARDER TO HIT ANYWAY.

You and two other people agree, the Artillery Shot is very hard to aim at a fast and/or flying target, to the point where it is mere guess work to hit your target. This is why it isn't practical to change the skill's properties, nor would it really benefit the tank much to do so, even if the Demolisher is underpowered like you claim.

While I might have said something like this, you still don't say how adding air stun affects anything at all. If anything it does not.

I never said it would make the Demolisher a good late-game tank, nor do I think the change should happen even if it could. Yet here you justify your reasoning for making this change by claiming it will:

scron2 Wrote:For this and more reasons the catapult is completely outmatched by several of the other tanks including thunder because it has a directed stun that can never miss and sky tank just because sky tank is so fast in comparison. I'm not saying make catapult "hunter" imba, I'm just saying give it a fair chance late game.

Again, you're undercutting the argument you made in your first post.

Not everyone is bad like that but you get my point. You can't use bad language as an excuse to insult me with your false commentary.

I LIKE HB AND WILL OCCASIONALLY PLAY 8.55 UNTIL A NEW ALTERNATIVE IS IMPLEMENTED! :?

Stop claiming everyone is just being snobby around here. People simply don't agree with your idea.
