Distributor Overpowered

[griffin1987]

The maximum dmg a single tank receives is 100% + 4 * 33%, that's 2.32 times of the damage provided all five tanks are linked and all five tanks get hit by some other tanks dmg. Only a single instance will get distributed.

What about 5 tanks getting hit by an aoe like orbital? Also, 2.32 times the damage - provided all 5 tanks are linked and AT LEAST 1 tank gets hit - is more than any other skill in the game.

And there is the crux: distributor does not has any skills to do dmg on its own (i wouldn't consider heat seeking missile a real threat. And even considering its dmg, it is unlikely to hit all five tanks with a single missile, i actually doubt it is even possible to hit five tanks with such a tiny AoE).
Also there is a limited time frame to act for your team mates, and most mates are to stupid to do so.

Weapons work as well, and you don'T need brain to hit someone with your weapon, because they auto-fire. Also, you're not limited to inbuilt skills - orbital for example has a larger aoe radius.

About tankers little helper, i do not get your math. A maximum of 300 gold per support point, that's it.

Hunter, which is more than 4.5 times the cost of distributor, would have 300 per kill for an enemy bounty of 1500 (20% added bounty max). And that's only for kills, which is - if kills are equally distributed - 1/5th of the team kills. For Distributor it's 4/5th of the team kills, and if you subtract half of it, because statistically the you have half the team get assists in mean, you're still at 2/5th which is double of what hunter would get at 1500 enemy bounty. And then distributor also gets money for conquering, and buying stuff (like tp breaker).

Two points for capturing a CP, one point for assisting, half a point for consumables. A kind of discount for buying support stuff, 150 gold for breaker instead of 300 gold, 1200 gold for armor ups instead of 1500 gold. But without spending gold Distributor does not get gold besides assisting or rarely capturing CP. And both actions are just some additional gold since EVERY tank gets gold for doing so.

It's not "just additional gold" - at 300 per assist, for even 34 assists (which is not much) you have another 10k, then add money for consumables and other stuff which gives assists, which you would buy either way (cost reduction is also additional money effectively), and additional gold for conquering, and you easily have 15k more with a game time of about 40-50 minutes.

Distributor is NOT comparable to Hunter.

Yes, because it get's more money and can potentially do more damage and costs less . ...

Due the lack of burst dmg a team of five Distributors would unlikely win a game, so i far away from calling it overpowered.

And a team of 5 tinkers wouldn't either, so ? Same for nearly every other tank.
