So space station...
Every match will a full space station is just unplayable, the whole team is against a full station and still lose the fight. When are they going to nerf those unbreakable shields?

@Screion While acorns are riding the oak they take reduced dmg. Also as long as one acorn has his heal ready on the oak they can't really get oneshot by abilities they see coming. While an acorn is healing the oak, the oak and his passengers take reduced dmg. The space station's 4 shields and large healthpool make it tanky while the oak needs acorn heals to draintank. If all the acorns don't blow their heals at once the oak and acorns can be just as hard to kill a space station. They can also draintank a single crater maker if all the acorns use heal (but only for a few seconds). Oaks and acorns need to be more coordinated to be effective as a single unit, while space cadets on a station can just do their own thing. Would it be better to just buff everyone else around her instead of making more characters weaker? The sound of empeach doing something unique to the station sounds good. It is a big robot thing like the imp mech after all empeach should definitely stun it longer or disable shields or something.
@chogath_player I think a lot aren't aware of how to use heals properly with oak/acorn unfortunately. There needs to be some sort of adjustment to space station - don't care what!! 😂
- @ToastedSarnie yeah In that post i did before I pointed out how I'm pretty sure ur supposed to use the heal but i personally never use it like that lol. I only jump on oaks for the heal. Then I ditch them immediately afterwards. The only "benefit" I gain from staying on the oak is not having to reload. But for some reason, I deal reduced dmg. instead of hitting 5 I hit 4? It's already hard enough to hit targets when riding an oak why must it deal less dmg. Makes no sense to me when you have space cadets on a staion hitting their normal dmg while having aimbots. Space cadets and stations really do have it easy compared to the oaks and acorns.
Space Cadet is my favorite character but there's no question that stations can be daunting to deal with. I'm honestly surprised they haven't already adjusted it. The stack of health and shields plus being able to fire your normal weapons and the torpedo as a rider makes stacking up on the station superior to riding an Oak.
I'm hoping the next balance patch brings the 2 team characters closer in overall performance.
- @Iron_Guard8 Is there actually a best way of tackling it? (Other than running away???)
