EOD BOT: Only has 1 HP of health.
Pro: It handles the terrain quite well, controlling is far easier than previous versions and the battery life is acceptable. But that's where it ends.
Con: 1 HP of health. That's all it gets. Players get 100 HP, EOD Bot 1 HP. If you look at the bot cross eyed, it dies. Fart near it, it dies. If your cat **bleep**s in its litter box while you are operating an EOD, it dies. If that little jumping spider in the corner of your room so much as glances in your direction, EOD bot dies.
The 1 hp of health means it can't do much. It will clear obstacles, but you are not allowed near them because your bot will die. Its' repair tool will take out enemy equipment, but not all of it. The GDPIS cannot be taken out with the repair tool, no clue as to why. The MPAPS can not be taken out with repair tool, no clue as to why. The EOD bot is killed by it's own teams vehicles. Trying to repair my team's tank, nope, tank runs over it, it dies. Try to repair any vehicle, if that vehicle moves, the EOD take significant damage.
How to Fix EOD: Change it's health from 1HP to 10HP, lets start there and see how it works out. Allow the EOD to repair and restock the vehicle stations. Give it upgrades like other stuff, to change out it's repair tool for a defib paddles, can only defib 3 teammates and only 25% of their health. One extra scatter munitions as an upgrade for a total of 3. Give it a rechargeable sprint mode, because chasing down retreating tanks is a pain in the **bleep**. Make it immune from damage from team vehicles. While it can repair your supports barricades, it can also repair the enemies barricade, fyi. Be able to upgrade from standard AV mines to other types.
AS for players complaining about killing with it, as many ppl as I have allegedly killed, I never received and credit for them. I can kill 10 enemies with it, and still have zero kills on the board so there is no incentive there, the only kills are from the mines I drop. But just trying to clear enemy mines is **bleep** near impossible until there is a change in map dynamics where I can take out mines in peace and quiet.
Seriously, more than 1 HP of health would be great.
