frost robot freeze-aura

[psycho_dmr]

it looks like the freezing aura of the frost robot slows down to 75% of the basic speed, so if i have air ship/tank an skilled speed i should have ~315 speed, but it looks like i have ~225 speed... buggy?


(and btw, i think that aura is still a bit imba, 15% at lvl5 should be enough...)

[Kenny]

At 15% I'd say it would be pretty useless. Frost Robot with +150 speed is 420, while the standard 300 with +150 speed is 450, minus 15% would be 377.5. Not much of a difference and nerfing the slow would make Blizzard much less effective outside of Ice Prison in most situations.

i think the skills of the frost robot are so or so to good... in an ultra rush you can't win without a frosty... an infernal is not so good how the frost i think...

[Batto]

About the difference between infernal and frosty, i think one of the biggest gaps is that the frosty's ice prison works immediately, while the first spell (dont remember name right now) of the infernal takes some time and you have to aim at the right spot to get full (stun) effect.

But that is a bit off topic here...

The worst thing is that Frost robots frost aura and the slowing effect of Ice Prison do stack, so the victim becomes überslow!!!

perhaps 2 seconds casting-time for iceprison would be nice...

and the freeze aura is balanced i think, but if the bug psy mentioned really exists it should be fixed... perhaps speed bonuses with upgraded speed or jet propulsion are removed completely with that aura and the speed is reduced to 75% of the base speed

[TKF]

Perhaps make the ice prison slow less. It stacks with the aura

[psycho_dmr]

the frost robo is still imba or at least damn annoying to play against... it just sucks to play against it... you have no chance to fly away (with airship or skytank - and all other tanks) from it because his aura makes you slower then him (normal speed) + he has almost an speedpack so he is way faster as you and has much more hp.. (normally the team with the first robo wins the game if its not too imba before)

so he has much more hps then you, he can stun 4(!!!) secs, he has icerain which makes ~2kdmg while you're stunned and if you survive the stun you cant fly away because his aura slows you down...

so please remove this tank from Battle Tanks (yes, remove...) its skills arent that imba maybe (each skill for itself) but that combo is like a forced win...

[Havana]

or add a new skill instead of the aura and make the other skill stunning 2 seconds....

[Batto]

but you can just nerf his abilitys, removal doesnt seem necassary

[Bob666]

right, and i wont remove it... no way...

EDIT: you say, the game wasnt imba before? maybe just because that player was collecting money for the ice robot and not buying new weapons, like your team does...

[Havana]

no no no.... the game was defenetly imba before... in our favor
