POS on the current islands don't make sense, but on much larger continents? I could see a point to that, perhaps this is where the devs are going with it.

Don't yellows guns use considerably more AP than blues? Even the extra AP that yellows have doesn't make up for it. Blues are also faster than yellows. Yellows robot bonuses would have factored into their extra dps, but you didn't factor in blues armor repair amount bonus and 50% more armor repaired is a lot. That's not part of DPS, but it's something that blues have over yellows.

Don't see the point in POS with the current landmass setup. Small islands multiple outposts on each, where are the POS going to go exactly and what is there point?

Give perpetuum a full game world please, one giant landmass!

That's what they're hoping for.

And a theldocia mech with +20% ammo will still beat its range by a lot.

Pelistal bots didn't get a buff. They had a nerf that shouldn't have been applied in the first place undone. Infact pelistal bots have been nerfed into oblivion over the last few months. EM guns were now longer range than medium missiles, and their bots faster.

The devs took notice of a couple of my threads I think.

http://forums.perpetuum-online.com/topi … than-seth/ - Fixed in patch, they gave Seth higher base AP.

http://forums.perpetuum-online.com/topi … st-damage/ - Fixed in patch, they got the range orders back to blue shortest, green medium, yellow longest.

How about your bot/faction is completely changed in a patch and you wish you never chose that setup anymore? No option to respec, you're screwed.

Let's put it this way, the gropho is the only Heavy combat mech that requires you to use a specific module to make use of all of its bonuses.

Mesmer does have an armor repair amount bonus, but that bonus suits that bot and would suit any other combat mech bot. I would happily trade the shield bonus on the gropho for the mesmers armor repair amount bonus, but i'm not so sure that mesmer pilots are going to agree with this change

Seth gets max accumulator, damage and crit chance, all useful for any combat mech build.

Mesmer gets armor repair amount, damage and falloff, all useful to any combat mech build.

Gropho gets locking time, damage and shield absorb rate? The shield absorb bonus is completely ***, i'm sorry to say it, but i'm shocked that it was ever designed like this in the first place. Gropho is now the only heavy combat mech that is forced to use a module that not many people want to use in order make use of one of its major bonuses. This is utterly ridiculous. Why they would force people to equip a non faction specific module and use a hardly used specific build in order to be fully effective is beyond me.

Since when the hell were heavy mechs "specialised"? Light EW bots, EW mechs, those are EW specialised. Heavy combat mechs are just that, heavy combat mechs. Specialised versions will probably eventually come much later into the game development.

My gropho with 2x T4 range extenders and level 10 propellant mixing gets 557 range. But like I said, reactor runs too thin on such a fit.

Even with a logistics bot, you're still going to end up with just one range extender. In a game where in pvp speed and range are everything, and hmechs certainly don't have the speed. They can at least get the range, but not with a shield gen equipped. 450m-ish range low dps gropho is not something i want to get into a fight in.
