Orbital Strike 75% Damage on LVL60 Schip!!

[V2-Hyper]

Split what have u done?!

Why?

Follow is happend:

Yesterday I had a fair fight 1vs1 me in Parsec vs any Sniper.
I known in past this fight was quite balanced and I known I could win. So I did it mostly in past vs Sniper.

BUT NOW THE HORROR:

3 sec after start I had to use already my rep cause the one Orbital Strike damaged me 75% in parsec in fact!!!
I could send only 1 rock and 1 shoot in the same time...so it was sooo amazing unfair and tragic and embarrasssing that I lost so miserbale.

I think it`s realy impertinant what u have done Split!
Sure I also bored about discussions about Parsec to weak, Sniper to weak....but that u cannot do!

We all accepted that Sniper got +30% more armor as Parsec but what happend now is impertinant.

2nd example...
On korell server on Earth I shot with 2 member a Harvester 58...we just startet and u know the green gone slowly down...then only 1 Orbital and the Harv 58 was almost dead!!

That can not be Split!!

It is funny to do that i did fast kill a harv with S0S + SAC 0.o
But when i did OS a rocket Turret do you guys know how much damage it did do big or small?
It was small less then 1% damage did it do when i did fight vs a storm did i give the storm like a super big damage but in the another things that has less hp do i do less damage why is that?

 

[V2-Hyper]

Idk why damage is so diff at palyer and some Mantis but however the exorbitant damage at player ships is not more fun!!
Split have to fix that urgendly!!

 

[ridoi]

For me is it's not fun to damage so low on a mantis that has low hp

 

[Silverman]

lol, are you spamming the whole forum with it, V2?
Was a joke, but on the german it is, too.
What i think, it sounds strange that you get 75% damage with one orbital strike, but a 60-Harvester just gets one small bar damage.

 

[TwistedMetal]

lol 75% that must have been a double strike and both crit on you to do that damage and its very rare for it to do that much damage. and i can assure you the sniper aint got 30% more hp or armor than a parsec

I've been using the X-Sniper a lot lately and have found the OS to vary a lot with its damage output.Sometimes the second blast is very powerful but doesn't always happen. My guess is that your 75% damage was a freak critical high hit from the first and second blasts. This I have only seen about 4 times in the last month. Normally the second blast is weaker than the first. I suggest you try PvP a few times to see the overall average from the OS.

That's my 2 bits worth... ^^

 

[pbhuh]

The orbital strike is a warning, it is easily to flee from it, so if you just think, mhhh, let i stay here with my parsec lets see what happens. BOOM, and crying on the forum that you got hit,

If you think it happend another way plz correct me, but this is what i think what happend.

STOP STOP GUYS!

U have not yet noticed the true problem of this thread!
I changed the thread name and hope u all check it now!
Does`nt matter if the orbital is also exorbitant and very to high on mantis....BUT NOT DOES`NT MATTER is that only 1 Orbital Strike can almost kill a lvl 60 Ship.
That fact should interesting U ALL PLAYER in lvl60 Storm, Tank, Medic and Shock!

Pls keep in mind what amazing debalancing that is!

When you pvp a sniper the orb strike hits alot faster then a signor so you dont get time to get away from it so what your saying pbhuh is pretty pointless

I think its actually a problem with critical hits. Same thing can happen with sol rockets sometimes you do massive damage, sometimes you do more damage to whatever is beside your target you just hit.

Critical hits used to seem like they did a set amount of extra damage now it seems they have a range that can vary massively

Agreed. Once i was looking for the sol aim, and the rockets hit a turret doing normal damage, and the turret beside got critical hit lol...

Also, in sol cq, i had aim (rare) activated and I shot a pack of rockets (rare) at a dude in r45 storm. Well, from full health that ship simply gone boom with ONE critical shot from sanitizer rockets.

orbital strike very very rarely does that much damage v2. iv had a full rare sniper ship for longer than most on here and iv only had orbital strike do a double crit shot twice, most of the time it does the same damage as a few rocket shots, plus your parsec is a lvl 49 ship not a lvl 60 ship so for it to withstand a double crit shot off orbital strike is lucky, they have capped and crippled every weapon on the sniper ship yet you still cry, so what if you got hit by a lucky shot i think the ships are very even at the moment and very balanced, in the last few weeks iv seen all kind of 1v1s with r60 ships and all of the have been close 1v1s, just remember the parsec is not a r60 ship so in my eyes for a r49 ship to stand upto a r60 the parsec is overpowered and this is why you paid the large amount you did for the parsec so it can stand upto r60 ships. i didnt see you crying in mizar when you have your parsec and it was way over powered to all the other ships, but now its different

 

[V2-Hyper]

... just remember the parsec is not a r60 ship....

I repeating the content of this thread is not for Parsec`s only but for all lvl 60 ship AND the Parsec is armored = lvl60 ship although is lvl50.
However what happend at damage on me in parsec will happen at you in lvl60 ship too!!! Thats the incradable point TwistedMetal...

 

[TwistedMetal]

yes i know it will but as i said you was hit with a double crit shot of orbital strike, that happens like 1 in every 5 thousand shots, iv had a full rare sniper ship for most of sol and iv only ever done a double crit orbital strke twice in all that time, most of the time orbital strike does nothing or very little damage in pvp and on mantis, if i fire orbital strike on a lvl 60 mantis it does notthing, try fire orbital strike on any lvl 60 mantis and see what it does you will be lucky to take 1 bar off even if both shots hit, i could understand if orbital strike took off 75% everytime but it doesnt its very rare for it to even take 30% so you must have just been unlucky

 

[V2-Hyper]

I see Twisted...I didn`t know that was a double critical. I did not a 2nd fight after that one
In fact I thought the Sniper Orb is extreme increased with on of last updates!

I think i will use my own Sniper for test on other lvl60 pilot...then i will see if u are right, then I used sniper last time half year ago
