Gotta move those new JSA starters... Wait, I actually agree with @Teslarod on something. This is crazy.
So heres the thing. Losing the lsg hurts. But the nanopulser is actually a great piece of kit for her. Weve always known the range band overlap on thw lsg and CR jas beena sore point for us. Now we have a tough somewhat choppy doc that sits right in the price point between the Tdoc and the Hdoc. With her nanopulser shes a fair hand at hunting camo as well, wip13 discovee s and int attacks ks something we dont normally get. Is she bland....yeah she is. But shes thoroughly workable now and she wasnt before at all
Yeah, I'll miss the Light Shotgun as an option for my Fusilier Fireteam in NCA. And while no SWC, -1 pt and the Nanopulser are all nice she's still (by FAR) the most boring and uninspired of all the Dire Foes. Hunh... maybe. MAYBE. But let's just say that I'm not going to hold my breath.
Thanks to this whole Uprising thing even salt is not ours anymore. Damn, CB is ready to really walk an extra mile for PanO.....
Hate to burst any bubbles, shes still kind of useless. Overcosted for what she does. I'd honestly prefer if she was wip 15 or had Doctor+. Something to make her a much more superior doctor. Either that or make her WIP 12 and have more equipment/weapons so she can be more worth her cost.
No, no, no. Cool stuff is reserved for StarCO. Hadn't you read the memo that now everyone has amazing doctor in HI links ?
In HI oriented sectorial ? Who would even need that? Check Tohaa, 90% of their stuff is unhackable and they can still actively hunt enemy hackers xD On WIP14 xD xD xD
That is still as shitty a Profile as Bipandra is. That's a Tohaa for 30 points without a Symbiont who is neither a Kaeltar or Makaul. Tohaa get Sensor on 10 points Order Monkeys and Viral Rifles on much better Troops. All she does is protect Neema, Ectros and Gorgos for a hefty pricetag. Losing a point and gaining a Nanopulser does nothing to make Bipandra any sort of useful that much is certain. Heck I'd argue it's bad she can Link because you really want a Palbot and that screws the whole thing up again. If she just dropped to like 20 points we could at least run her as an expensive 6th Fusilier who can scratch MLs from the floor (in the possible scenario they don't die straight up). @eciu Assault Pistols are 3 on top of a Combi. And it's not why Konstantinos is bad. His hole kit starting with the Combirifle (+PH12, ARM2, CC16, CCW) is. Hardly worth mentioning. Have a rough time getting a linked Hospitaler Doc into btb with anything worth rezzing in his Link. Pretty much use him exclusively for button pushing and his Multirifle 4/5 games. Just make sure you kill the Doctor first or the HIs fully.
Like, I hear you, but at least she's INTERESTING. Expensive, sure, but it's a cool combo of tools on a unit which can pal up with two other buddies. Yeah, it's still just... 'meh. I mean, I'll use her. I used her before. But I'm a LONG WAY from overjoyed.
Obviously, this isn't the Tohaa forum, but I think it's worth noting the reaction over there to the Aelis changes has been generally positive. Toolkit plus Triad plus KHD plus decent stats means you'll be seeing more of her in the future.
OK now that the points system is out the fucking window (cf. Arigoto), and other factions are rocking super optimised mixed visor 5 man links out the ass, I think Teutons should straight up get smoke grenades without their cost being changed at all.
Actually on those few games where it wasn't that my Doc was a first link member to die (mostly due to my mistakes) he ressed quite a few people. Notable game was when Ninja KHD hacked Fersen to unconcious, slashed other Hospitaller in CC to unconcious, then his turn ended, my doc moved to res both of them and after reforming link back to 5 people they had killed damn ninja. Also sole presence of Doctor in link team forces your enemy to spend other orders to finish your unconcious guys.
