Raider Tp & kaboom

[Papas]

I play BT long time! may be not so good as u, but! from version to version BT becomes more & more disbalance ... first it was that buggi raider, then another new flying tank, & when i saw how 1 flying tank use his skill tp + boom it was madness, & u cannot put ward to stop him he exploude u & disapered & after 3-5 sek he has full hp, is it normal? if it is normal i wount play tanks anymore, as almoust all my friends ... u are killing the perfect map ... bring it back to lvl 8.73 or eve earlie ... my favorite version is 6.0 it was perfect balanced... now BT becomes more & more boring game ... 1 gun 1 repair 2 instant repair 3 armor 4 speed 5 orbital ... so the tank no need to have weapons anymore ... is is write?

lmk when you are sober

i think raider is finally fine the way it is
have you ever tried to play raider?

I totally not agree with you. The only thing you explain is that your opponent was more skilled than you. I mean raider is hard to play well, but as all tanks, when it is well played it's getting really hard to beat. The healing spell of that tank takes 6 seconds to heal, which give you more than enough time to make a kill. This isn't about a bug at all.

Raider skills (all of them have a visual effect) combined! you've have a time windows of about 5-ish seconds to chose between

• making as much dmg as possible to kill it or
  
• try to make no dmg at all and nullify all his spells

It is a tough lane tank as enemy but also in the beginning to play. You need some coordination to static charge ('cause of reset) someone to death while he's attacking you. To dmg with raider ulti it need enough survive-ability or it will just retreat, avoiding e.g. stun with its utli is tougher since u will return for sure.
It is a high hp start tank with a limited weapon options in the beginning and raider is slow. It is not that easy to succeed with a raider. Maybe raider could require some small adjustments but overall i think raider is balanced fine.

I'd just change the first skill of the raider - it's too strong at start, and too weak later on. Also it is too weak for less skilled players, and too strong for more skilled - though that "skilled" only depends on how well you can click, which I don't like (this is not a FPS)

For everything else raider is just a total suicide/shortrange tank, and I think thats very fine. If you only play longrange and run around solo, prepare to get fragged. If you know how to play in team and use something else but longrange weapons: be happy you can rather easily kill the raider.

At least that's my oppinion.

And yeah, I must agree with you that bt seems to get more boring every version, especially with all the imbalanced items regarding heal/damage reduction. The whole game has become wayyyyy slower and more dependent on you knowing which stuff is imbalanced the most.
