I tought about a booster that many ppl would love, the Stun Resistance booster.

You will stil be hit a bit, but able to flee for stun turrets, paralyzers and custiodian commanders.

Hmmm, I don't think that will work, the stunner would scream cheat at the top of their lungs, plus I think it would give storms and tanks an overwhelming advantage over them O.O

I think it would be better if you just shortened the stun time effect of teh stun charge a little, cause I think that maybe it does last a little too long, cause in a storm it's over the second you get stunned, you just can't do anything and yer dead before the repair droid is able to activate 9 times outta 10... at least that's my experience of it O.O. In exchange though the stun dome should be altered to make it a little better, cause that one never lasted long enough fer me O.O How about stun domes last a little longer, they'll do slightly reduced slowdown time, say liike it'll slow down a ships recharge rate by half or 3/4 of what it does now but it'll last a little longer. dunno the mathematics of it exactly but I think that could work.

It will not work on pvp, only on custodians, paralyzers and stun turrets.

I still think it would give teh storms and tanks to big of an advantage over them even if they are mantis O.O it would kinda kill the purpose of a stun ship.

A booster has the same effect no matter the ship. It wouldn't matter if you're flying a storm, tank, engy or shock, the result would be the same.

Tanks have the hitpoints and shield strength to outlive both stuns already, and the stunner lacks the firepower to finnish them off quickly so it's an evenish match even now. The Engineer already has the protector so at least for a while it could sherk off the stuncharge or stun dome, adding in it's quick recharge rate, gives it the ability to fight evenly with a stun ship. Add the booster you mentioned and they will probably have quite a good advantage over a stun ship.

Now when you look at a storm, it's got an overwhemlming advatage in firepower over a stunship, the only thing that stops it is the stuncharge because the hitpoints are so low they can be taken out before they're able to bring that firepower to the stunship. If you reduced that stun effect on a storm then the storm could and probably would just blast the stunner to pieces before the stun charge was useable again. I pointed out the storm because it's the ship I pilot the most, and if you take into account what the pvps are like with that booster then you have a pritty good idea what it'll be like with the mantis. It would kinda make it too easy. Which I find utterly boring O.O
