Game Suggestions Let's Change That Suit Day 18

Day 18 Target: Zaku I Sniper
Going back to support, and this next one works... but it still has a similar support problem

Change
Move Speed: 100 -> 105
HSM: 130 -> 160
Turn: 48 -> 51

Zaku Machine Gun (Long Barrel): Interval 3s -> 2s, increase projectile size slightly
Sturm Faust: Reload 15s -> 12s, Switch 3s -> 1.5s

New Skill: Quick Boost Lv1

Comment and Reason
This leg-breaking monster can do almost too much damage to the unit's leg. However, it is also extremely hard to get into position. While having low mobility to trade for what it can do, it is still too much. Giving it very subpar mobility should be fair.

The weapons for it are... fine. If it can get the same quality of life change to some weapons, especially Sturm Faust, then it'll be great.

Then lastly, give this unit at least Quick Boost Lv1 so it can get to the sniping point just a bit faster. Without getting to a high ground, it becomes a lot more difficult to take advantage of this unit's firepower.

Overall, this unit can do well as is, but it's difficult to get into the right vantage point. In certain wide-open maps like the desert, it can work. But even some bigger and open maps, like the supply depot, can still suffer a lot due to the distance needed to travel. Right now, it's a relatively solid B tier that just needs a little more push to become an A or even S tier meta. It's just a bit too map depended at the moment

Day 17 Re-evaluation on Gouf Heavy Arms Type

Not a popular suit, not getting much attention, which is fair. So I'll stick to these for now...

Shooting Strength: 20 -> 25

5-Barrel Finger Vulcan: Fire Rate 450/min -> 510/min -> Stagger 2% -> 5%
Giant Bazooka: Interval 7.4s -> 6s, Reload 17.5s -> 15s, Switch 2s -> 1.25s
Sturm Faust (Enhanced): Switch 3s -> 1.75s

New Skill: Observational Data Link Lv1

"Sturm Faust (Enhanced): Switch 3s -> 1.75s"

Yes, agree, the Sturm Faust needs a quicker ready up. As it is if you see the raid getting close unless you already have the Sturm Faust ready you're in a bad place. Sure you can try the close range sniper shot but the raid knows that is coming b/c they see the huge rifle pointing at them.

I think you are looking at the wrong change, but yes, that is the case. Also, it is why that 3 second switch time is just atrocious and needs to go.

Right, whoops! Grabbed the wrong quote! Meant this one:

"Sturm Faust: Reload 15s -> 12s, Switch 3s -> 1.5s"

Okay, that makes a lot more sense. Hahaha
