TIE Bomber needs a nerf
Limit the number of bombers available, decrease their hull value, ANYTHING. Right now every game looks like this - 4 TIE Bombers doing suicide runs and 1 other player who isn't it on the joke. With...

Right now, Tie Bombers are literal battering rams with guided long range lasers. I always laugh after I've unloaded my fully charged rapid fire laser bar (as an A-Wing) on a Tie Bomber in a head-to-head approach, and the Bomber rams through me like it is a Bulk Cruiser or something, and comes out of all that with like 50% damage only. It could almost do all that one more time.
@Metric-SINISTER , you are not *supposed* to be able to kill a T/B on the HTH with an Awing - not if he is aiming and shooting at you. That's just how this game works. There are meant to be 4 very *different* classes with different capabilities. You can certainly get behind / beside him and make him pay though.
Personally, I would prefer *everything* be easier to kill, like in XvT / XWA. But if it is going to be a "modern" type game, where things have more health in general, then the "tank character" does indeed need to be "tankey," or else it just becomes useless.
That's why I suggest a *slight* nerf to the T/B. Trim its hull, and especially trim the reinforced hull.
Or, slightly buff all the weapons of fighers, interceptors, and support.But please do not nerf the Rotary Cannon! (The unguided one.)
I would love to see all guided laser weapons go away though - rotary and burst - just keep the unguided versions.- @JesuJuvaOU I was in an X-Wing with default lasers, thank you very much.
Getting behind a TIE bomber is dangerous because of the mines.
