Eradica really needs it's level 6 ability reworked and it's base weapon damage buffed(right now it's like 20% lower then the hyper-defensive utility heavy TLT's base weapon damage output). For Coronata I'd just like to see Subjugating Assault do something when attacking capital-ships(it already drains AM when doing so). Perhaps have a chance of draining AM when attacking enemy cap ships(but not titans). It's just irritating to have an

The issue isn't the damage(which the most recent patch reduced). The issue is that with it's enormous AoE and scaling abilty diable duration, it fairly quickly is going to prevent the entire enemy fleet from using abilities for 8-14 seconds. Which means other factions can't use the tools they ordinarily use to defend against AoE damage against Disruption Matrix's damage(Advent in particularly is hard hit as all their counters to AoE damage are channels that will b

We all know the Rapture-glorious late game capstone of pre-rebellion Fleets. All in all an outstanding late game vessel. It does however lack flexibility(it pretty much is only for capping off mature frigate fleets, especially with carriers). Rebellion has however hurt it a bit- the presence of titans makes frigates less of a factor late game(meaning vertigo is slightly less potent). This is doubly true being that carriers that can supp

For the Domina's Perseverance ability I was wondering how "disables" are defined. Does it protect you from all forms of partial disables? or just full disables? Which is to say does it protect against abilities such as detonate antimatter(the ability prevention aspect) that only disables ability use? Or does it only protect against abilities that prevent the ship from doing anything(such as Reveries, Phase out Hull, ect...)?

Advent titans need better base stats(mostly eradica needs better weapons damage and Coronata needs more hull/shields) and some abilities need to be looked at(eradica level 6 ability, radius on Strength oft he Fallen, Subjugating Assault needs to do SOMETHING against titans/capital ships, and Unity mass is rather underwhelming by comparison to snipe). The one other issue with the titans is that both ships rely on the advent's fleet of frigates actually being around, which is far fr

[quote who="lbgsloan" reply="73" id="3120998"]Never been a big Advent fan, but the rebel titan really just made me go 'meh'. It has a severe case of 'Kol Syndrome' where it's only really effective if you opponent focus fires it. Sure it does a lot more DPS than a Kol does but if you don't shoot it 2 of its 4 skills don't do anything. That's really not good design. The passive in theory is designed to make ignoring the titan bad s

I agree the ultimate is dead-boring, I'd love to see it replaced; two ideas that immediately come to mind for me: 1). a drop-ship launching ability that works similarly to the boarding party only for planets(perhaps a channeled damage over time and if the planet falls while the dot is applied the planet changes sides) to allow the Corsev to capture a planet with it's planetary upgrades intact? This would also negate the need to bring along a colony s

Honestly I just think the boarding part DoT should ignore shields/shield mitigation. A). it doesn't make sense- once the boarding party is on board what the hell do the shields do to stop them from causing havoc? B ). This would make the ability more reliable. Accounting for armor, drop the dot on a ship with under ~275 health or lower an guarantee the capture provided no healing comes into play. I&#39

I've been doing a bit of thinking on this issue and have been wondering whether titan builds times should be exempt by the "build speed" game-speed-constant. One of the main counters to titan-rushes is supposed to be the player not rushing a titan's ability to use their superior fleet to attack and blow up the foundry before the titan is done when they see the message warning them that their opponent is working on a titan. Because none of the current

are abilities like Detonate Antimatter completely unable to target titans? Or can they still be used for the antimatter drain but just not apply the ability disable component?

To those advocating the current Chastic Burst: Good point, in all honesty that's probably the ability I though the least about(as I said I had a bit of a knee-jerk reaction to as I pull it "Kol-syndrom"). I may very well have underestimated the potency of it's AoE. Perhaps I'll add something to the OP noting that changes to this ability are likely the least pressing and of debatable necessity.

For the Advent Rebels: possible bugs: 1). I've had the rebel titan use purification to east other ships without orders to do so when autocast was turned off 2). After "recharge shields" is researched, repair platforms also gain the Recharge shields ability(the tooltip in the tech indicates only temples of renewal gain the ability). Not sure if this is a bug or whether the too

Advent Rebel Titan: The Coronata As a whole I think the Coronata is closer to where it should be as a titan. Suppression Aura is an outstanding ability(I'm not even going to bother discussing it as it needs absolutely no buff). Subjugating assault is very close to where it should be, and the level 6 ability accomplishes it's purpose nicely. The only ability that doesn't really feel like it fits in U

Anyone else notice that in the rebellion beta all of the defense platform turrets have had their damage cut in half(reduced from 40 to 20) as compared to in trinity? I'm wondering if this is intentional, being that turrets were already considered a rather niche strategy in trinity, used sparingly. If it is intentional anyone got any insight in what the reasoning behind the change may have been?

What about perhaps just disabling titans in flagship victory setting? It would give appeasement to any players who are worried or have reservations about the strategic importance of titans, would give the flagship game-mode a bit of a nostalgic classic-sins feel, and frankly the exclusion of titans from a single game move shouldn't be too much of a hit to one of the expansion's shiny new features. Or better yet, give hosts the option to allo
