Htts are currently just useless, as intbombing is cheaper and more likely to be successful.

The two only exceptions are bios cloaking htts and GT ap htts. So either perk their armor, or their sig.

+1.

I like the low sig option personally. Force the other team to probe more//to be reeaaal sneaky as a lone/solo nan htt. Although I think bios should not get this perk. They could use a little nerf on their hvy cloak2 htt imo.

I'd buy that. someone else had the idea of Facion perked HTTs a while ago, I like that idea - Found it (this thread)

It was something like
Belts HTT have a booster (reasonably light effect one)
IC had more hull by default
Giga could have Lxy HTTs of some sort...


HTTs are pretty useles unless your BIOS or GT with AP HTTs atm, so something like this may be fun and better balanced.

Or their mass, thrust, and torque.

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.

Especially mass. Nothing fancy, just harder to ram aside.

adept, thats a 3 part equation to their movement,

increasing mass, would require an increase in thrust and torque, or you end up with scout + aleph res type flying

I'd go with sig.

Also, could someone explain the torque part of that "equation"?

Lower sig and more armour for TT/HTT.

Bios does not need any changes though.

Like the idea of Belter HTTs/TTs being able to mount Lt. Boost.
