my post for some reason got editet alot by me and is still beeing review for some reason. but yes, i made some of these thougts also. that number of ships already reduce potency of valor incredibly much, ontop of having slower base speed then tarkin also ontop of the nerf on valor tm gain, and it also have tfp ship to add even more tm to capital over non empire. and the fact that he will literally one shot mostly all ships unless u are able to buff them up alot with protection. wich also is not easy. i dont know on what planet can u justify a capital one shotting all ships and win the game by it and further nerf mace capitalship that was considered to be the lowest tier capital. atleast before i had chance vs tarkins, and now it have an even easier time of reaching on shot button then before. u migth aswell give nihilus a shorter time on instantkill and add it so it works on aoe aswell. cause it really is no different. and tarkin abilities are infinately more useful as it is. and u are basically forced to skip all usefull skills to apply valor, to not even reach protection up by the time he kills all the ships. i thougt ships 2.0 was about balancing, not further nerf to the weakest capital and indirectly buffing tarkin capital to even more stupid degree of blatant op, and i think ppl already agreed that is was the best one, some high end players even take it over chimaera. hell if it even did half dmg that ultimate from tarkin capital would still be insanely powerful. ive been neck and neck with a guy in ship for first and second for weeks. now, he just win by default. i think that it should line up more or less with eachother because even with protection up i suspect it still will remove all shields and damage them quite alot either way. then it atleast is some tactical aspect to timing it for that for example. im really upset over this, the game is prety paytowin already, wich also is unfair. things migth even out when i get alot higher rank on protection up skill, but it shouldnt be that if u want to or took mace capital ship that u should automatically loose over it at earlier levels. atleast increase cd on early lvl tie swarm on tarkin to not let him just auto-win over you. if i could i would change but i need like a week atleast to even make tarkin anywhere near competative at my ranking. at great cost to the rest of my fleet, everyone else including me is just strugling to even get our ships to our own level as it is.
