Lis's missile is too weak
Lis's missile is too weak. I try to counter the good pilots that are wreaking havoc with the choppers, but the missile from Lis does only 20 damage!!! So it means i have to hit the same heli 5 time...

good, there should only be a few people playing vehicles and the vehicle spam is one of the things that ruins the game anyway. the other anti-vehicle weapons dont need a buff but, lis needs a buff for sure especially since its her character ability. at least double her damage or give her like 4 rockets at a time.
@patchdamnems her job is not to take tanks from 100% to 0% alone with the missiles. It is to hit the things that the other launchers cannot hit due to line of sight or flares.
In that regard one could say the missiles could get easier to control by not being bound to the vehicle aim slider etc.

Lis seems to be too strong and too weak. Both is correct, depending on the number of Lis we are talking and for what job.
For Air, the rocket is no agile enough and the warnings are in my opinion too much. There, I think she is pretty weak.
For ground, alone she is weak, too. She can't take a vehicle out by her own, so pretty weak. But if you take three to five Lis in one game, every vehicle has no chance to counter it. So she is not only pretty strong, she is overpowered (for me, if you have situations, where you have no counter, even if you are the most skilled person, it is overpowered).
Lis itself is on paper a interesting character, but for the gameplay, she brings huge balance problems. This has nothing to do with specialists, it's a problem of her rocket launcher. If there would have been a rocket launcher with that function in BF4, it would have been overpowered, too.
- @Captain_Tachi At least on the ground the answer is to run an irish with a couple trophy systems, shoots them rights down.
Having T1'd Lis, I can add info
Lis Rockets damage is variable depending on where you hit. It starts at 25 and is reduced by armor. it is important to note, Lis, by design, is NOT supposed to solo a vehicle. her quasiSOFLAM and being able to see damaged vehicles is a support function. However, I have 1 shot vehicles, I link a 1 shot as an example.
In this video, I 1 shot a Bolte which is an armored vehicle. Usually it takes 4 missiles from Lis to get this, but notice where the missile impacts. You will also notice the vehicle isnt highlighted RED so it is at full health.
Most of Lis' rockets hit the highest armor point. Lis rockets/issue
- The rocket range sucks
- The rockets are very slow
- The rockets lack agility
- The cooldown between 2 - 3 is 20 seconds. If Lis is solo, the vehicle regenerates more health then what a rocket delivers
- The rockets are shot down frequently
- Lis lights up like a beacon and is killed before the rocket arrives (sitting duck)
One thing can fix Lis. Eliminate the borg regeneration from the game. That being said, you have to learn and up your skill as you play. By the time I was T2, I could guess most pilots moves. For instance, Kaleidoscope, Pilots go around buildings. If as I approached, if they went right to left, I went left to right, hitting them in the windshield. For Stealth and Tbirds, this is a one shot. I simply guessed where they were going. Had they just flown straight, they would have outrun the rocket.
Over time, you will learn air and armors moves. You will adjust and increase your success. Just remember, it doesnt take 2 recoils or AAs to down a vehicle, why should 2 Lis rockets do that? Lis' abilities are to entice teamwork, not solo play.
