Vasari Rebel Kultorask Titan hull repair ability undefeatable?

from Sins Forums

I've had over 50 LRM missile frigates, 6 capital ships and my TEC Rebel titan at level 8 and a fully upgraded starbase all against the Kultorask BY ITSELF, and it just kept using this ability and repairing itself back up to full hull and anti-matter points.  Sometimes at over 1000 points per second, sometimes less, but always at a rate that got it back to full health no matter what I could throw at it.  The battle went on and on and on and on until I realized I was just not going to ever overcome that ability.  The ONLY time I destroyed that ship was in a nebula where all abilities were disabled.

Is that functioning as intended?  Because as I type this I have a saved game with this ship in one of my systems and I can't destroy it.  It just keeps spamming that ability.

Don't worry, the Nano Leech ability will most likely be nerfed in the upcoming patch.

You're fighting it the wrong way. You want to minimize the amount of ships you are using against it. Your own Titan along with a fleet of carriers that can leave the system instantly will strip it down pretty fast.

it's quite easy to kill, just use your own titan and tank it at your starbase, atleast it works when i play as TEC Loyalists.

^^ you either play noobs or AI. Decent player would never attack your starbase + titan with only titan....

critical mass of SBs + cap fleet... it'll drop like a fly. Don't feed the ability. Caps/squadrons(afaict)/stations/titans aren't effected by nano leech. SB's are anti super heavy, they get some insane damage bonus Vs Titans. Know your enemy and hit it with what hurts, throwing frigs at titans is like tryna take down a rhino with a gang of midgets... You're just gonna end up with a load of pissed off midgets.

please dont nerf anythig that is "overpowerd" in some circumstances.

 

Marza Misslebarrage is overpowered too if you dont fight right against it.

 

That the fun. Know the strengh and the weakness.

I's broken, period.

 

 

Nanoleech on it's own does has an impact greater then  other entire titans.

 

Honestly I think the hull drain would have been fine on it's own.  It's the AM drain that pushes it over the edge.  300 AM frome evry enemy capitalship means the ability counters capitalships every bit as hard as it counters frigates.

 

 

not to mention wit hthe stupid amounts of AM it returns you can't even counter the VRT with AM drain(which is a counter to all 5 other titans).  Not to mention it's basically infinite AM.  AT max rank, A SINGLE ENEMY in range returns double the AM cost of the ability. I've tested it, it returns AM even against enemies that are out of AM or that have no AM pool.  AT higher ranks basically the VRT gets basically infinite AM for 30 seconds out of 50-60(dependent on cooldown boosting upgrades)- and frankly the fact that nano-leech will top it off means that it will doubtless have enough AM to spam abilities for that 20-30 secondso f downtime if it chooses.

 

 

Nanoleech just does too much- The hull drain, AM drain, or AM restore o ntheir own would have been on par with other titan's abilities and the Kultorask gets all 3 in a single ability.

 

That said, I could see the Kultorask being buffed in other areas- but nano-leech is stupid overpowered at the moment.
