Why scout have low hp? - AeroniumX - 2012-03-10
Because it sucks?
I notice than some of the starting tanks have a little more hp than their costs. I'm only mentioning the ground tanks since the airs have less hp due to their flight capabilities.
Tinker
250 hp, no cost, 250 more hp than gold
Scout
650 hp, 500 gold, 150 more hp than gold
Light Tank
1000 hp, 800 gold, 200 more hp than gold
Antigrav
1500 hp, 1400 gold, 100 more hp than gold
Demolisher
2000 hp, 1900 gold, 100 more hp than gold
All the little extra hp follows the same pattern except scout. Is it meant to have more bonus hp or is this intended? So I'm wondering why does the light tank get more extra hp than the scout? Is it to make the scout rather useless without hull? When I random scout I feel forced to get iron or steel hull, but when I got other tanks I might sometimes jump straight to tier 2. Why does scout have 650 hp? Is it because of the creep cannon?

I remember a while ago that the defence systems were passive which made it the best start tank to have (like a free repair bots), maybe when it got nerfed the hp wasn't changed.

Don't forget it hasn't got the default tank-cannon. So this tank is a little bit special

Bring back the old school scout with op health, 8k health creep tower, 1300 range creep weapon, and passive health regain with a passive spell block on a short cd.

In the old time it is possible to defeat a inf with a scout ^_^ , but not possible anymore.
RE: Why scout have low hp? - AeroniumX - 2012-03-14
Is the creep cannon really that imba? Scouts creep cannon can't even harm buildings or enemy tanks, only good for creeping, so why not start by giving him 50 more hp or make him cost 50 less?
RE: Why scout have low hp? - Velocity2k - 2012-03-14
It has got 1050 range and with that the scout can stay a little bit behind other tanks and thus it get's hit less.
RE: Why scout have low hp? - AeroniumX - 2012-03-27
Ok, so its supposed that the creep cannon make up for the current hp.
Shouldn't scout have 0 armor?

scout is great tank for it's cost. if u're able to stay with it a bit longer it has gr8 stun, u can also cr8 healing wards. tank canon is imba for creeping, and don't forget that whn u're attacked u can build a tower wich on higher lvls muliplies basic scout's hp. i don;t know what's this thread about.
