Legendaries mainly iron citron

So I heard that iron citron is going to have his impact damage nerfed. It's just like why? If anything he needs to have more damage and more damage to mechs, why he does 36 damage to mechs is beyond me. The real Mech buster is armor chomper dealing 50 or 55 to mechs.

Iron citron is really slow and takes in more damage then delivers.

His wide body is prone to getting killed by rockets.

Iron citrons need to be how he is or buffed

And the worst of all is he is really hard to get and all the legendaries. Nerfing legendaries is ridiculous.

Therefore just leave all the legends alone.

    If you can't aim, don't play as a character that shoots... Or a shooter at all...

    Your talking about 80% of the people who play this game. This is a big problem that EA dosen't understand. This is why they are nerfing it so people who can aim don't get a advantage.

    a weird nurf to hear when you first start his reload was shockingly bad till you had the 2 reload upgrades

  • To be fair though, the Plants will have more damage in the next patch - EVEN SUNFLOWER. Since Rose and Citron are getting buffed, there should be more CC in team comps - which means you'll see less Super Brainz usage. (THANK GOD)

    Also, since Rose is getting buffed in dps/homing, it'll be a nightmare for Imp players outside of their mechs. (Especially considering they'll be even easier to hit when the patch hits)

    Yeah i think the same. With 40 Damage he will still be decent though.
    Anyway consider he is a super scientists counter and scientists getting nerfed is not unreasonable to nerf him imho, scientists life will be harder than actually probably.
    Yeah i really like Citron i'm ok with a nerf on Iron if his gonna get less critbox and less clunky animations, he is the one who will abuse for the most of these two buffs in my opinion.

    They're nerfing tank commander too.

    They really just seem to hate rocket launcher basic attacks.

    First, people can play any game they like even if they can't aim. Second, there are people with varying degrees of accuracy. Some people do just fine with single shot weapons. Some need to be able to fire fully automatically so they have a higher chance of hitting their targets. It only makes sense that single fire shots should do more damage than fully auto weapons. So again, those who can aim better should be rewarded for their accuracy.

    Onto wether or not the damage nerf is okay. If you nerf damage from 50 to 40 for a direct hit, that is one more hit you need on a Super Brainz to kill them while they are punching you directly in the face. That makes a huge difference in survivability in that case. If your EMPeach is on cool down, it is already a tough encounter. So I don't like the idea of a nerf for that reason. Also, if the damage nerf also applies to his long range damage, that will truly gimp the character since doing less than 25 damage at long range means it takes forever to kill a character. I know we don't have the details of a nerf yet, but still, like I said Citron rewards good, consistent aiming. I don't see why that is a problem in a game like this or any other shooter.

  • I personally like the characters as it is....any less damage than its current would make iron citron obsolete again and even more disappointing (it already is the rarest character in the game).

    As many mentioned before, there is no need whatsoever to nerf him since the damage is a reward for the extreme precision needed to actually make some difference. Its speed justifies that damage. and to be honest even more.

    Please reconsider this decision and comment it further with the community who actually use this variant.  @JA_Wiebe

    they should leave iron citron as he is 

    and only change his iron mode damage that is the only problem with him 

    once he gets into iron mode he is insanely OP they should make his shots do 40 damage instead of 50 just while in iron mode

    other then that he is fine 

    i mostly use him as a sniper to annoy the zombies 

    the shots are hard to land from far and they only do 25 damage which is nothing in this game and he can only shot once per second 25 damage per second is nothing 

    up close where he does 50 its also only 1 shot every second 

    and if you miss it you do splash only so its kind of a high risk high reward 

    they should leave him as he is and only change the iron mode which is too strong for sure
