Maybe it's just me but why does he need 150 hp, a scape ability and an instant "fung fu" every 18 seconds? I mean, he's kind of an sniper, isn't he? It's frustrating to fight 80's because they have all the problems I see a lot of posts here complaining: - Strong/very useful abilities with low cooldown - Really high survivability - High damange at all rangesAlso, his shots are kind of weird. When I'm playing nightcap I often instantly die with a full charged shot but when I tested in the AI they only deal 60 damange.I don't know about this and want to know what you guys think about it.

The amount of times I cheat death as 80s because of his great survivability, I can’t say. He needs some damage drop off, a longer cool down for Dynamite Dodge and longer cool down for Rocket Ride, perhaps.

My biggest issues with the action hero are his full charge shot 1HKOing acorns and nightcap and the cooldown of his rocket ride allowing it to be used as an engagement (ie: used on sight of a single target) tool rather than for its group clearing.

@JoaoCandido2201 If you come in close and constantly move, it's much harder for the player to hit you. The person will most likely charge up his shot, having 1 chance to hit you. His ability's make up for his primary. Rocket ride can be threat, most characters can avoid it, or you could go below where his blind spot is.For me his feels balanced, that's just my opinion

I find 80's hard to manage so I think it's fine.

@TheSprinter85 But he is a sniper because the projectile travel time is really fast if not instant but he takes a lot to use

About 80's action hero stupid survivability

@TheSprinter85 its frustrating to play against him. All granmaster 5 i played against do the same: sniper, and if you start to shoot him or get too close, they use instant rocket ride. If you're not dead (most the time you'll be dead) they just shoot you with an unchanged shoot to deal instant 17-20 damage or run away until they find another zombie.
Dynamite dodge needs more cooldown (80's have 150 hp, they won't die instantly to need to escape that frequently), rocket ride needs a lot more cooldown and his uncharged shots need a damange reduction. It's really boring fighting against this zombie >:0

@JoaoCandido2201 80's Action Hero only has the 150 hp because of his Rocket Ride. He lifts himself high up into the air and he's a still target. He exposes himself up there and more than half of the time he gets vanquished because of that. Peashooter counters 80's Action Hero quite well because if 80's Action Hero is using Rocket Ride, you can use Pea Suped to fly up in the air and all of the missiles will miss, giving you the advantage and you will land all of the direct hits onto him.

@Multiwarfare I understand that his primary is hard to use but i have to disagree because it's not that hard to land a shoot and even if it was they mostly run until they can hide or until his rocket ride charges up. His rocket ride it's hard to dodge for an average player and it's blind spot is just beneath him so it is not that often you can cover. My biggest problems with him is his 17 damage with uncharged shoot and his instant escape abilities having low cooldown.

@Joseph2004045 My biggest problem it's not him having 150 hp, it's him having powerful/useful abilities with low cooldown and his damange with his uncharged shoot.

As much as I like the 80s character, I do agree he is too strong. The damage to hp ratio makes no sense. You can one-shot any 100 HP character ( I know it's not exactly 100 but just for the sake of it). And as the character you have 150 HP, with instant escape and an insane ''oh *'' rocket ride.
