yeah i really should just do that, pretty dumb that they don't

might need to figure out something for seekers as well down the line, either just get rid of them or give them some unique advantage to set them apart from qfs/dfs, as it is right now there's not much reason to use seekers at all over either of the other two missiles. i buffed the @#(! out of sup though, and i don't want to continue perking them when it's not needed

Perk them and lock them to scouts only. There you found a home for seekers.

Make all seekers dual fire?

Seekers should be moved to a tower that only scouts can deploy

The only real problem with seekers is they take forever to lock, and the locking cone doesn't seem to be that large. Take a look at sidewinders from EoR. EoR sidewinders maybe pack more punch than you need for seekers, but they had a super wide locking cone, decent locking time, and good turning.

Dumbfires vs QFs vs Seekers can be a tradeoff

1) DFs - packs huge punch, fast locking, but poor tracking - Wins by kicking you in the teeth when you're sitting still.
2) QFs - packs small punch, fast locking, but narrow lock cone and modest tracking - wins by spam
3) Seekers - packs modest punch (current damage should be ok), moderate lock time (maybe a little faster than current), but large locking cone and good manuverability - wins by scoring a hit where other missiles would miss.

In testing yesterday a single Ic pw2 mini3 heavy in with standard ammo load can kill a giga ls3 hull2 cruiser with no gunners Towers seem to shred lg shield very effectively too, maybe too effectively.
A group of heavy ints I am cool with dying to. But 1 only seemed a pretty poor investment in money
