I agree, if there was a dps increase it should only be like 5% or something, not 20% xD. But imo i think the hp and regen buff is good, just not the instant replenishment, For example a 10k monkey lord vets, and gets the usual increase in hp and regen, however stays at 10k hp. Meaning if you pull it back and let it regen it will be stronger than n ordinary monkey, without the massive hp boost at same time. Maybe to counter this, slightly increase the regen boost it provides by a small amount so if you can get it out of trouble you can get the benefit earlier. Just adding my 2 cents. I like the vet system, i wouldn't like it eradicated, but i agree it can be abused the way it is currently.

I would be a bit afraid of a fatboy with 100% dps boost .... same for t3 mobile and stationary arti.

Better than magic 20k HP boost (and then 4 more times)

True xD

As much as I'm not an equilibrium supporter, I still wonder why hasn't the vet system they developed been implemented yet into the oficial game.

Well, I thing the best solution is:

-Remove instant heal (still keep the increast total health and regen)

+add 10% Damage boost per Vet

Enjoy!

The only thing I have against instant vets is that they nerf attacking ACUs greatly. Your argument may be: "but my foe walks away after getting 3rd vet and killing all of my tanks easily!", to which I say: "You should've had more tanks to account for the vet. You need to be certain of your victory when you attack. If victory is uncertain, do not attack."

The numbers are down to the balance team to get right. The system itself is extremely flexible, but that system is the real point here. It allows the revamp

if you're kiting then hover has achieved it's objective, getting you away from eco, production and reclaim. I assume frigates will suffer the same vet problems and 2 of the 4 factions have floaty flak. I'm obviously no expert on equilibrium, and probably never will be, i just want to make sure changes to the main game aren't just rolled out without mucho consideration

i guess, but given that battlecruisers hopelessly outrange and out...float? auroras it shouldnt really be a problem to simply move them back once in a while.
also they do overkill them by quite a bit so its not the most efficient use of BC
lastly you can use frigates for that purpose, or destroyers, or gunships

in any case thanks for your feedback!

Yeah, I think EQ really got it right with the vet changes

There is a very real chance of a vet rework. The code is completely ready, and well-tested in EQ. Just need the balance team poking into DOING it.
