Introducing the Pillar sentry.
New tier sentry that replaces 5 individual sentries with just one. Takes up 5 drone slots not based on bandwidth or size to remove the ability for carriers to say have 10. Sentry would have maybe a little more damage or tracking to make up for having one shot per 4 seconds instead of 5 different calculations. There would of course be different flavors based on race. I believe this new drone would greatly help performance in large scale fights because of reductions in drone based calculations. Instead of having 500 carriers with 10000 drones out it would bring it down to 1000.

this pretty much reminds me of the domi drone nerf in the past and tbh its not something i'd like to see as a supposed fix to the current lag issues especially when there are more deployables being produced to help induce more lag. |

Problem, 5x dps isn't an issue, but 5x tank makes these substantially superior to 5 individual drones when dealing with bombers. Not giving them 5x tank, means is much easier for direct fire (not AOE) weapons to kill off the drones. Gonna get a lot of upset people when it takes more then a full wave of bombers to kill a set of sentries. |

Well could possible make them not combined HP but a little higher than a normal sentry and still susceptible to bombing runs. As it stands now a carrier can hold what like 500 sets of sentries? So a carrier will still be able to hold a mass number of these things without hindering firepower. The goal in this idea is to create less strain on the server while maintaining pretty much everything a set of sentries does now. |
