Simple enough question, I feel like the teams in them should take more damage. It really does not intimidate me at all to rush a squad in trident even if they spray the trident a bit as we rush them. I toss two gas traps on it, rush the enemy jump out.. They are in a full on panic and split up.I would also like to be able to customize the look of them. Perhaps bring back the paint hop up?

@DarthValtrex Only change I’d make is that it shouldn’t let you jump into passenger seat if the cars empty , as in the first person to jump in the car should be put in drivers seat .I say this cause twice now I’ve ran to do a sick getaway in one , only to accidentally jump into the passenger seat and become a free kill. Embarrassing to say the least 😂

@EdwardDLuffy As I run past tridents I usually put two barrels on them. Today I did that and we got in a fight with a team. We killed two of the team and the 3rd fled. He thought he would use the trident to get away. Except when he got on the barrels went off and he died 🤣

@DarthValtrex I personally wouldn't change anything, very well balanced people get protection but also have a second or two where they can't react when jumping out.

@DarthValtrex Increasing damage taken, particularly during trios, will prevent anyone from using it IMO. After all, is a big target.I think they are in a good spot, if anything, I will add a few more around labs.

I feel the same. They are quite balanced. They did an amazing job on testing them Maybe a QoL would be that you can switch places with one of the two side spots as the driver. So if you drive the thing you can switch places without completely disembarking the vehicle.

What changes should be made to tridents?

@Draelth I can see that, perhaps it's just the lobbies I'm in. But I'll drive them straight into a squad and jump out. Typically don't take more than 18-25 damage.

@DarthValtrex Well, I think Tridents are a nice and useful addition and I'm pretty sure there will be skins or even alternative models for them in the future, it's a good opportunity for monetization.

One change I'd like is to have the option of driving it in first person view.

@DarthValtrex they will only add some overpriced skins, later on, that's it

I played an entire game yesterday as Caustic doing nothing but driving around in a Gas Trap covered Trident.
Most fun I'd had in ages :D
